How would you
describe yourselves?
Soulful, groove
music with a side of sass :-)
Who are your
main influences musically?
Prince, Amy
Winehouse, Andy Allo, Kimbra. Also very inspired by groups like The Fleet Foxes
and A Perfect Circle. I have a pretty diverse music collection!
What do you hope
to achieve in music?
To have not only
my singing, but also my songwriting recognized. To have a big enough fan base
to be able to travel and do shows around the world and just make music. If I'm
lucky enough, maybe even be able to take care of my amazing family one
day.
What has been
the highlight of your career so far, and why?
The great
response I've received for my new album "Let Love Shine" has been
amazing. It's in the top sellers on cdbaby for both Neo-Soul and Urban R&B
and I have a couple of singles that are doing really well on the Amazon UK
Neo-Soul chart (mp3's) Last week I made my debut onto the UK Soul Chart at #21.
This week I've moved up to #14! I've been getting play there in the UK, and in
a couple of states here. All within the past month. I've been at this for so
long. This is all just totally amazing and very exciting. I'm incredibly
grateful that people have faith in the music I'm putting out.
And what’s the
moment you want to forget?
Big
opportunities that came my way when I was younger and filled with self doubt.
If you could
choose just one of your songs to represent your music, what would it be and
why?
The first single
from my new album. It's called "Funny Feeling." I wrote it when my
soon-to-be husband and I first started dating. It's just a straight up, feel
good, love song. With the exception of a couple of songs that are a little more
dramatic, That's what this new album is all about. Love. Let it shine!
