Her instrumentation serves as a backdrop to lilting melodies that shift with the emotionality of their music, which is the driving force for her sound. Coley also has a degree in classical singing/vocal performance and is a board certified music therapist who currently works in hospice and special education. She also loves being in or near the water as often as possible and is fiercely devoted to her dog, Lodi.
