She never thought she would be a singer until Pat Monahan of the band Train heard her voice when she was 16, loved it, and he convinced her to start writing her own music. In the years since, she has since released her debut EP “Middle of the Night” and her latest single/music video “Flow” dropped in June 2022. Sedona’s musical influences range from the Beatles and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers to Ed Sheeran and John Mayer, and of course, Train.
