Teena May began her music journey on a toy piano at age 4 by ear, then in classical piano lessons in her home town of Winchester, VA until age 13. At university she taught herself acoustic guitar and began songwriting but was convinced creating music was only a private hobby as she explored more stable, “lucrative” lifestyles.
In the fall of 2012, Brooklyn NY, Teena started songwriting in earnest. After wrestling with her identity as an artist for 10+ years, it all came together Spring of 2022 at a near empty open mic in New Orleans. She realized sharing song stories is not a choice - it's her calling, never again to be ignored.
Teena has performed her extensive Country, Pop, Folk and Americana 200+ song catalogue in Washington DC, Los Angeles, New York City, New Orleans, LA, Nashville, TN and Paris, France. She now performs either solo, as a duo with fiddle or as a full band, (fiddle, upright bass and drums).
