Porter is a 25-year old pianist, singer, and songwriter from Los Angeles. Her music, which she describes as a spontaneous offering of insights to accompany the dance of life, is at once literate and mischievous. An accomplished technical musician, Porter excels in live performances and intimate settings—able to engage the audience with her personality as well as her melodies. Critics have responded by calling Porter's voice "sensual", her playing "hypnotic", and her musical sensibility "precocious"-yet-"delicate". Her lyrics, which tilt toward the philosophical, have been described by Grammy-winning lyricist Jerry Leiber as "poetry set to music".
Porter has also been highly active in the studio. In 2008, she released her self-produced debut album, the self-fulfilling prophecy. The result of a two-year labor of love, it is available through iTunes, CD Baby, and Borders bookstores. Enjoying herself more than ever, Porter is currently touring the West Coast, the Southwest, and licensing her music for use in film and television.
