Penelope Torribio was a teacher and mother before she ever touched a guitar, sang outside her bathroom or wrote a songs. She got a guitar for $10 at a swap meet and a beginning rock guitar book and not ready to go to the next song in the book began writing her own songs. Within 6 months she began sharing her songs with writers groups and colleges and several years later formed her own band, "Penelope and A Little Bit of Gold." She played with the band at night, taught during the day, and raised a family in- between. Her band played all the major and many of the minor L.A. Venues and from this came the album "Headed for A Good Time."
Many people have expressed interest in her roots music, music about her family. So here it is, Family Man, an acoustic album with favorites: Tiny Little Shoes, What's Grandma Got That I Ain"t Got, I Love the Way You Lie, Ordinary Woman, and I Love How You Love Me and more.
Dan Dobrin, lawyer "I like Penelope's down-home story style."
Chuck Gresham, construction "Penelope's love songs are some of the best I've ever heard."
Keith Flueret, police academy "I have used Tiny Little Shoes for the mother's dance at my wedding and everyone was in tears-good tears."
Adeshir Radpour, owner multimedia company, "Tiny Little Shoes made me want to find a wife and have a baby."
Suzanne Ross, artist, "All my friends love the positive sentiments in her Family Man songs."
Billy, at-risk student, "My favorite is What's Grandma Got That I Ain't got," it's funny.
