Judy Gorman's songs get their wings from her imagination and their roots from the folk, blues, jazz and gospel music she's been surrounded by all her life. Her earliest memories are of hearing the music of Billie Holiday, Woody Guthrie, Paul Robeson and Leadbelly. Judy has just released THE RISING OF US ALL - 18 songs of peace & justice, work & women, struggle and celebration. She's performed on programs with Ani DiFranco, the Indigo Girls, Moby, Richie Havens, Sweet Honey in the Rock, Pete Seeger, Suzanne Vega, Odetta, James Earl Jones, Laura Nyro, Whoopi Goldberg, Susan Sarandon and Maya Angelou.
