From Torch Songs to the Trail of Tears to the Trapeze: the Wide Range of Stephanie Bettman

Stephanie Bettman underwater on the cover of her album, Out of the Darkness

I've seen mentions of the music of Bettman & Halpin for years, but it took running into a video of a new song by Stephanie Bettman to lead me into the wealth of music she's written and performed. Just recently Stephanie released her own album, Out of the Darkness. Stephanie's range is astonishing in oh-so-many ways. Certainly in terms of vocal range, genre range, and the range of themes & ideas, but also in that she's also been an actor and a trapeze artist! Whether tracing the steps of the Trail of Tears or seated in a lounge, crooning a torch song, Stephanie invites you to the heart's center. Stephanie Bettman joins us via Zoom from Denver, Colorado.

Past/present religious/spiritual influences: Seeker, Yoga, New Age, Course In Miracles

All featured music is written & performed by Stephanie Bettman, unless otherwise noted:
