Musical background: "I started violin when I was 9, and I started it in the same program that I work in, the Richmond County String Orchestra program. And I started playing at Warren Road Elementary as a fourth-grade beginner. And when I got to high school, we wanted to form a string quartet and we didn't have a viola, so I took up the viola and learned it just to go to the solo and ensemble festival. And then in college, I got really into singing."
Her IPOD. " I think maybe '65 to '69 was probably the best time for music, so a lot of stuff is right in that time period."
Upcoming Gig: Ms. Greenwald will perform with Ed Turner & Number 9 on Oct. 24 at the Imperial Theatre.
