B.J Snowden

B. J. Snowden is an American songwriter and musician who sings and plays synthesizers. She has become a cult figure in Canada for her many songs about the country, including titles now covering every Canadian province, and has been featured on CBC Radio One's show As It Happens where she noted that her grandmother was Canadian. In addition to her songs about Canada, she covers diverse subjects, including Judge Joe Brown and Daisuke Matsuzaka. Her ancestors were the first black family to purchase land in Billerica, Massachusetts, where she grew up; she graduated from Billerica Memorial High School, and later Berklee College of Music class of 1973. Snowden has taught music in Philadelphia, Boston, and Somerville, though she has been unemployed since before 2003. Snowden's work has been referred to as outsider music. The Boston Globe has compared her to Yoko Ono and Lene Lovich.
