Whether playing by herself or with her band, she draws you in and holds you there. Her voice is simultaneously intimate and assured. Her songs are wide-ranging in style but always pure in emotion: from down and dirty blues to defiant ex-lover funks to summer day sambas to wistful ballads.

Woo’s musical experience includes studying classical guitar and music theory at the University of New Mexico and the University of Colorado, organizing the Women from Mars (an on-going music festival), and serving as a producer for multiple projects including CDs for herself and Sally Taylor, daughter of Carly Simon and James Taylor.
Woo has released seven CDs, displaying a wide variety of styles. Her seventh, titled “Luxery” was just release in March 2007.
She is proud to be a part of the Benito team, as an artist endorsee, playing a Benito model 234C.
