Avotcja (pronounced Avacha) is a card-carrying New York born Music fanatic/sound junkie & popular Bay Area Radio DeeJay; member of the award winning group Avotcja & Modúpue, and Resident poet with the 17 piece Electric Squeezebox Orchestra at the California Jazz Conservatory. She’s a lifelong Musician/Writer/Educator/Storyteller & is on a shamelessly Spirit driven melodic mission to heal herself. Avotcja talks to the Trees & listens to the Wind against the concrete & when they answer it usually winds up in a Poem or Short Story. Her latest Book is “With Every Step I Take 2” (Taurean Horn Press).  Read more about Avotcja here!
