Randi Driscoll Up Close on AP RED COM

Jason Drew of AP-RED get's 'up close' with Randi Driscoll. Randi is a singer/songwriter whose passionate stage performances have earned her critical and public acclaim. Her performance credits include opening slots for Bonnie Raitt, Bruce Hornsby, Dar Williams, Pat Benatar, Linda Ronstadt, Jackson Browne and many others. Randi has performed at Lincoln Center in the "Bang on a Can Festival", the 2001 HRC dinner in Washington, D.C., with keynote speaker, Hillary Clinton, and the New York City Hall Pride Awards honoring Whoopi Goldberg and Olympia Dukakis. Randi's music has been featured in docu- mentaries, commercials, and the WB hit series, "Dawson's Creek".
Randi's greatest personal accomplishment is her song, "What Matters", written in 1998, in response to the death of Matthew Shepard, a young man killed in a brutal hate crime. The song was written to honor his life, his family and the unconditional love they represent. "What Matters" has become the official benefit single for the Matthew Shepard Foundation, a charity started by Matthew's parents whose goal is to replace hate with understanding, compassion and acceptance.

We love Rnadi and support her music and hope that you guys visit www.randidriscoll.com, Itunes, and CD Baby to purchase her new cd "365."
