About your Circle Singing instructor and songwriter, Patricia Bahia:

Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter and ovarian cancer survivor Patricia Bahia (pronounced ba-HEE-yah) combines elements of pop, singer-songwriter, with hints of country and soul, to create sparkling gems of piano-based pop songs. She blends catchy melodies with lyrics celebrating life’s struggles and triumphs, and delivers them with a voice as smooth as a polished stone that has been through the rock tumbler of life. Drawing favorable comparisons with Ingrid Michaelson, Aimee Mann, and Sara Bareilles, Patricia creates music that is uniquely soothing, refreshing, memorable, with a sound that is all her own.

A former jazz and gospel singer, Patricia started her career as a soloist with the acclaimed Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir--recording with Linda Ronstadt, performing with Joan Baez, and opening for Bonnie Raitt. Patricia discovered her “bucket list” desire to write songs during a successful battle with ovarian cancer ten years ago. She credits her illness with the discovery of her songwriting voice, and the power of music with her recovery. Now healed, Patricia is on a mission to spread love, healing, joy and peace through the power of words and music--and to inspire others to follow their dreams and live artistically.

Patricia’s music is available at: iTunes, CD Baby and Amazon.com

Note: We need some photos of the circle in action that the CSC can use on fliers and website to let folks know about Circle Singing. We hope to have someone there on Saturday to take a few pictures. If you would like to be in the pictures, you will be asked to sign a photo release. If you don't want to be in the picture, please join us anyway. You will still be able to participate in the circle without being photographed.
