Eli Westin has moved to Portland…and we should be honored! After spending 30 years outside the mainstream, Westin has come to Portland.

She comes from Alaska, where recently she had built a home in the coastal rainforest of the state panhandle. Being a two hour boat ride from the nearest community, left Westin plenty of time to write songs and play guitar, especially in the winter. Westin did take some trips to exotic areas during this time to Jamaica, Tonga and Somoa. These trips gave her the opportunity to play with other musicians from other cultures.

Catch Westin at the Flying Cat Coffee Co. July 10th, and we will review her CD, “Freezer Burn” in our Premiere issue hitting the streets on August 27, 2009. Flying Cat Coffee Co. is located at 3041 SE Division Street 97214

Take a listen to the CD here on CD Baby
