Madeline Roa

“As you can see, my musical taste is all over the map,” explains local singer-songwriter Madeline Roa, whose influences read like a Lilith Fair lineup. It’s not hard to imagine Roa, armed with her emotionally charged lyrics and sweet voice, performing as part of the now-defunct festival. Visit Roa’s YouTube site, www.youtube.com/madelinemusic, for an intimate rendition of “Something Worth Keeping,” which she recorded at home with a Web cam. The sound’s not that stellar, but die-hard fans won’t want to miss it.
