Patrice Haan

Patrice Haan (Oakland CA) is a harper, singer, songwriter, composer and wordsmith, devoted to the healing presence of listening.

Patrice has an ear for melody, a heart for feelings, and a gift for lyrics which she combines into beautiful music, whether singing and playing her own songs or interpreting others' creations.
