roots a'risin' (formerly aspects of P.A.M.)
Pamela Ciconte (singer/songwriter/guitarist/violinist/percussionist) has been performing professionally for about a year. Her strong vocal talents include many different styles — most notably opera.

Ren Rick (singer/songwriter/guitarist/percussionist) has been singing with various local bands and on-stage in musical theater since the early nineties — performing at outdoor music festivals in the MD-VA-WVA area, and local nightclubs.

Stacey Silvermoon (singer/songwriter/guitarist/percussionist) most recently performed as a soloist — before deciding to collaborate with ren and Pamela. While at college in Oregon, Stacey studied African drumming and she brings these skills with her to the stage as well.

As a group, these three women use thier different styles and experiences to weave a unique blend of harmony and songcrafting.

"[roots a'risin's] music is as colorful and ecclectic as the performers themselves! It was a thoroughly enjoyable musical experience, multiplied by the band's commitment to the community."
