February 23, 2011, San Francisco, CA – Lisa Sniderman, aka: Aoede (pronounced A-E-D), is a driven singer/songwriter who’ s one-in-a-million, but it’ s not only for the reasons one would expect. WomensRadio.com’s recipient of a “ Top Album of the Decade” honor, and “Top Artist of the Year” for 2008, in recognition of her CD release, Push and Pull, suffers from Dermatomyositis. Dermatomyositis, a rare connective-tissue disease for which there is no known cure, afflicts an estimated 5.5 people per million. It attacks and weakens the immune system, muscles and skin as well as the mind and spirit, and if left untreated, could result in complete muscle wasting and long-term disability, as well as other complications.

Aoede’s condition, the onset of which inexplicably began in mid-2008, worsened in September 2010 to where she had to be hospitalized for 24-days of treatment and rehabilitation. She credits two forms of treatment that is helping her rebuild her body and spirit: Intravenous therapies and creating Affair with the Muse. Affair with the Muse is her second studio album of 7 new original songs, which will be available March 15, 2011 through iTunes and other music download sites.
