Who is Mindy Hester?
Mindy made the beautiful discovery that passion and responsibility are not always as far apart as they may seem and "Mindy's Music" was born. A 37 year old Chicago native and mom, Mindy began performing as an actor, graduating from the Theatre School at DePaul University in Chicago in 1992. She went on to do television and film roles while living in Los Angeles until 2000. View her acting credits at The Internet Movie Database.
She returned to Chicago and began teaching at The Old Town School Of Folk Music, in the adult guitar and Wiggleworms children's music program. She currently lives in Chicago, and tours the midwest year round. More about Mindy can be found in her Electronic Press Kit. Use the link below to view it.

"My influences are as wide as my personal musical tastes. I dream to create music that blends real rock & roll and pop music with the salt and spirit of Jim Henson, the wild abandon of Iggy Pop, the playful spirit and integrity of "Jack's Big Music Show" on Noggin, and the pulse pounding excitment of a Super Monster Truck-Pull. My favorite children's musical acts include Peter Himmelman, The Dirty Sock Funtime Band, Ralph Covert, Milkshake, Justin Roberts, Laurie Berkner, Jeanie B!, TMBG."
