Calli Dollinger is a singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist living in San Francisco by way of Texas. Time Out Chicago describes her unique vocal style as "the back room ghost of a classic rock chanteuse", and her influences are based in evolving folk, rock, and R&B styles that span the decades.
Raised by a music-loving former Texas beauty queen in Austin, Texas, Calli was exposed to a long list of musical matriarchs such as Janis Joplin, Joni Mitchell, Patti Smith, Debbie Harry, Aretha Franklin, Lucinda Williams, Tori Amos, and Madonna, at a very young age. Also extremely influential were the film scores of Henry Mancini, Bernard Herrmann, and Elmer Berstein's "To Kill A Mockingbird".
