Ava Victoria is a grounded, direct woman who is funny, engaging, and fully Artist with depth, emotion and a penchant for drama. For our interview Ava and I relaxed together on a terrace with a gorgeous view of the San Francisco Bay.

Just off a plane from performing in Southern California, Ava, looking elegant in her tailored pants suit, happily regaled me with stories about the launch of her fabulous new CD, Hybrid Songbird. Having already listened to the CD, I quickly came to understand the meaning of hybrid in the CD title. Hybrid Songbird warmly reflects her own intrinsic nature with its mix of bluesy guitar, folk, poignant ballads, and classic showtunes. Over the course of the afternoon Ava attempted to satisfy my bubbling curiosity about her background, family, and how she arrived at this point in her career.
