Hart’s original songwriting anchored the group’s four acclaimed albums (2005–2015). Brandi performs and teaches both privately and publicly. She additionally works as a voice and stage actor, a playwright, and a theatrical and film composer. Beyond concerts, Brandi brings music into classrooms, libraries, and museums, leading composition and creative coping workshops for both children and adults. Currently, she's booking fall/winter tour dates and recording her solo debut with her new band, Brandi Hart & Her Vital Organs.
Jen Herrold: Artist
Today’s guest is Jen Herrold. "Raised in a household of artists and mentors, I developed a creative foundation that led to the Interlochen Arts Academy and Indiana University. My practice has been shaped by time in New York City and travels through Mexico and the Costa Rican jungle—where I once branded a crocodile tour boat. Now based in Bloomington, my abstract work explores the tension between instability and structure. I utilize found materials to ask whether clarity can emerge through deliberate, though imperfect, practice. My paintings remain rooted in tradition yet fully alive to the beauty of experimentation."
