Aireene Espiritu is a singer/songwriter playing mostly original songs accompanied by Latin/African rhythms, folk, bluegrass pickings and inspirations from gospel music – a mix of stompin', swayin', and timeless Americana. Born in the Philippines now based in Oakland, she was influenced by Alan Lomax and growing up listening to her uncles' Filipino folk guitar fingerpicking. Her lyrics celebrate human beings being human, stories from ghosts and the living, and identities of cultures within cultures. (www.aireeneespiritu.com)
