Kitty Brazelton has been performing professionally
since 1969. She appears primarily singing her own
composed repertoire accompanied by her own (or
co-led) ensembles:

• Musica Orbis
• Hide The Babies or V
• Dadadah
• Bog Life
• What is it Like to be a Bat?
• Hildegurls

But Brazelton enjoys just being a
performer exploring the work of
other composers, some of which
was written specifically for her.

• Randall Woolf's experimental rock band CAMP from 1996-1998
• Joshua Fried's Headfone Follies, HERE in 2001. See Voice review.
• Eve Beglarian's Machaut à Gogo included on Dadadah's first CDRise Up!
• Jim Pugliese's Blind Magic
