This week on Full Circle, we have a very exciting live music performance. We are honored to have Pyeng Threadgill, composer and vocalist from New York City, and Shelley Doty, guitarist and singer/song-writer from the Bay Area.
Pyeng Threadgill’s unique style of music has influences from R & B, blues,
soul, electronica, and drum ‘n bass. She has composed her own music, as well as recorded adaptations of the work of other musicians.
Shelley Doty’s music has been described as a mixture of Rock ‘n Roll, pop,
blues, jazz, and folk. She has also collaborated with a number of other
musicians, including her indie jam-rock band, Jambay.
