Annie Grieshop

Like many Sacred Harp singers from the North, Annie stumbled into this wonderful way of singing by accident. In the early ’90s, a friend gave her music with funny notes and wonderful songs, and she organized people to sing it… until a stranger said “But you’re doing it all wrong.” So she went to the South, and learned to do it right. Since then, she has led singing schools, founded the Iowa All-Day Singing, and written about singing in the Wapsipinicon Almanac (No. 10, Driving Across Iowa). In her non-singing life, she is a piano technician and plays for barn dances.
