Guitarist to perform at Unitarian churchInventive instrumentalist Annie Gallop plays the guitar with complex picking patterns and imaginative lyrics.

Since then she has appeared across the United States and Canada in the Winnipeg Folk Festival, Napa Valley Music Festival and at the Bottom Line in New York City.
