Tret Fure, a multi-talented women’s music artist, has more of a hard-rock edge to her music than most of the genre’s artists; she grew up in the Midwest and became a professional musician when she was 16.  Her first solo album, Tret Fure (1973) was produced by Lowell George of Little Feat; and she later toured as the opening act for several major rock bands that included Yes, the J. Geils Band and Poco.
