Like most performers\, she started singing at an early age\, mostly in her church and community. Her music is described as a blend of down-home roots and contemporary country. Gilbert uses her experiences from growing up on the farm to fuel her songwriting as evidenced in songs like “Corn in the Silo”\, “Bloom”\, and “She Can Haul”. Her songs have placed in national songwriting competitions as well earning the title and a guitar for the Bluebird Cafe’s 30th Anniversary Songwriting Contest with “No One Has to Go” which was also featured on Season Five of the White Wall Sessions. After a 7-year stint in Nashville\, TN honing her craft\, Gilbert returned to roots in 2013 and continues to play her original music at various venues and events throughout the region. Janice is an experienced educator and award-winning 7-12 th grade music instructor. She is a member of the Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI) and spearheads the local NSAI Sioux Falls Songwriters group. \n				Meet Emily\n				Emily Roehl (they/she) is an artist and scholar who makes work about energy\, the environment\, and social justice.
