Leticia Wolf

The Song Witch

Composer · performer · Director

“Leticia interacts with music the way light moves through film–instantly, with intention, atmosphere, and a little magic. It’s so good to work with her, and call her a friend. She composes, supervises, teaches, writes, directs, and on and on.

She’s also really funny, her band is good, and she always finds a parking spot.

I’m pretty sure she’s a witch.”

What She Does

One practice, many voices

Composition

Curating or creating songs and scores written for screen and stage. Music that earns its place by knowing its role.

Performance

Bringing a unique edge to animated characters, theme songs and live shows. Guitar, vocal, keys, bass, drums.

Writing & Direction

Stories for film, television, and stage–usually built around music, but always built around character.

Teaching

Passing on the craft– how music works, how stories hold together, and how to find your voice and use it. Passing on the permission to create. Currently teaching at Rawk U.

The Long and Winding Road

Thirty years or so ago I was listening to The Beatles’ “The Long and Winding Road,” and as art often does, it was resonating with the older person inside of my child-mind.
