Before committing herself to music full-time six years ago, singer/songwriter Kyshona Armstrongwas as a musical therapist working with infants, autistic, inmates and the elderly. Today she describes herself as a "rogue musical therapist" who brings the healing power of music to audiences around the country.
Armstrong is from South Carolina and is currently based in Nashville. CMT Edge named her as one of the Five Rising Roots Acts to Watch in 2015. She released her latest CD Go in 2014 and is currently on a Midwest tour that brings her to Sioux Falls. She's performing at Augustana College's Back Alley Friday evening at 9 pm.
