Song Of The Soul

The musical genius gene came to Rita Hosking from her mother, and Rita has passed it faithfully on to her daughter, Kora Feder. Rita grew up in rural Shasta County, California, and caught the music bug as a teen, playing washboard as part of The Farmerettes. With detours to Religious Studies and Cultural Anthropology in college, time teaching History to 8th graders, and raising two daughters, Rita came back to her musical passion to release her 1st album in 2005. Self-described as creating country-folk music, Rita has released 7 albums filled with captivating story-telling and place-rooted music. All songs in this program are written & performed by Rita Hosking: The Coyote - from Burn When Miners Sang - from Burn California - from For Real Mama Said - from Frankie and the No-Go Road Sing - from Frankie and the No-Go Road
