Kansan Kaleigh Glanton grew up watching her father play classical guitar and at the age of four she expressed interest in playing guitar also. Of course dad jumped at the opportunity to share his love for the music that had taken him around the world in international competition and unique performances. Howard Glanton watched his daughter’s talent grow beyond proficient to excellence. He made sure she was able to get lessons and attend workshops from distinguished greats like Ricordo Cobo, Dimitri Illorionov, and Lily Afsar. Five years ago, at the age of 15, Kaleigh literally discovered her voice. All of a sudden her music shifted from complex melodic and polyphonic textile on guitar to using vocal tonality and rhythm to chronicle life.
