A'oleon Broomfield

A'oleon is a musician that uses beautiful interpretations of the New Orleans jazz idiom as an homage to her hometown and Americana music as a form of self expression.  In 2005, New Orleans was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. While displaced in New Iberia, Louisiana A'oleon received her first guitar for Christmas.  In 2010, the self taught guitarist moved back to New Orleans and began performing. Now Ms. Broomfield is a versatile musician that is influenced by a myriad of genres. A’oleon is a popular busker on royal street.  The New Orleans native is outspoken about the misandry that plagues buskers due to the ire of citizens that dislike this tradition.
