About Helen Wendy Loo

Infused with a love and appreciation for music from an early age, Helen Wendy Loo made the leap into pursuing it professionally later in life. Transcending genre and language boundaries while possessing a wide musical palette, Helen’s musical sound tends towards the eclectic and free — embracing jazz, rock, folk, pop, bossa nova, blues, reggae, kirtan and world through the filter of her own personal expression.  She also performs songs in the language of her Chinese heritage.  Often described as beautifully soulful and expressive, her voice invites the listener to delve into narratives of the heart.  In addition, Helen is profoundly drawn to mythology and story, movement and dance, and poetry and language.  It is her honor to step into the role of the Artist Healer by illuminating truth, beauty, peace and harmony through the vehicle of music.

Currently living in Los Angeles, Helen is thrilled to carve an ever-deepening, inter-weaving, multi-dimensional artistic path expanding musical and performance frontiers in collaboration with talented musicians and artists exploring and story-telling her authentic journey through the dance — and ultimate triumph — of life.  She has studied voice with a variety of excellent teachers and is grateful for the great artists who have come before her, as well as the wonderful guidance she has been blessed with along the way that has informed her art and being. Helen is also a yoga instructor and truly enjoys assisting others towards health and wellness.  She graduated from Stanford University with a degree in English Literature.

During this time of great disconnection, uncertainty and concern, it is Helen’s hope that by witnessing one of her performances you will come away feeling more connected to yourself and to an inner sanctuary that we all possess within us. She is offering to be met in a place of emotional depth that is contemplative, experiential and less intellectual. We can co-create new beginnings from the ashes.  She hopes you can join her in this odyssey.  

Favorite words to live by: 

True beauty is well-being.

Truth is healing.

“I am circling around God, around the ancient tower,
and I have been circling for a thousand years,
and I still don’t know if I am a falcon, or a storm, or a great song.”

— Rainer Maria Rilke
