Leilani Wall, a struggling bureaucrat, turns to music to escape the stresses of toiling in the coils of State government. Music has always been central in her life, and singing and playing guitar are what keep her compos mentis. More or less.

Leilani plays a wide variety of music: modern and traditional folk, rock ballads, a smattering of country and Irish, and a few croonable tunes from the late ’40s and early ’50s. She can be heard on the Delaware Friends of Folk’s A Delaware Christmas recording.

Leilani has played extensively in the area. She has performed for First Night Dover, the Capital City Tour of the Arts, the City of Dover Performing Arts Series, the Festival of Lights, the Festival of Trees, as well as for Delaware Friends of Folk coffeehouses and this year makes a return to the Delmarva Folk Festival.
