Wendy Woo - The Immigrant (2019)

Wendy Woo has been exposed to the unexpected in life. As the daughter of immigrant bohemian parents who were founding faculty members at Naropa University in Colorado, growing up in the family home was a true eclectic social center. Visitors such as Allen Ginsberg, Ken Kesey and Norman Mailor would be regulars in the living room. So when Wendy sat down to write a song reflecting on all this, it had to be sweet and humorous. "One Way Ticket," is a nod to growing up as a "beatnik's kid," and Gregory Corso teaching her how to play poker. Cause one always needs to have a good poker face. “Woo’s dexterous music works its way into your consciousness like an Edward Hopper painting or a shot of smooth rum. “
