Marrying the traditional idiom of classic country with finely-drawn and revealing lyrics that tell of a hard life richly and fully lived--that is the music of Angela Norris White. White's writing is rooted in real life experiences that extend back to her hardscrabble start. From her poverty stricken life with no running water, heat, and Christmas in name only, White says "When you grow up singing as a way to literally help yourself survive, it gives you a very personal and unique relationship to singing and songwriting. For me, because I have that kind of connection, songwriting lets me draw from deep within while keying me into a space of authenticity and sincerity that I probably wouldn't be able to touch otherwise." White has coined her own term for the genre of her original material as "Edge". White says, "Well because it’s on the "edge" of everything, anything, something, and sometimes nothing".
