Your name:
Corey James.
Where are you
from?
Venetia, PA
(just south of Pittsburgh, PA).
Who
else is in your band?
I am a solo
artist.
How
would you describe yourself?
I would label my
music as acoustic/indie/pop. A lot of my songs are stories about overcoming the
hardships in life and coming out the other side a better person.
Who
are your main influences musically?
I listen to all
music. My main influences are artist like Dave Mathews, Incubus, Third Eye
Blind. Basically I enjoy artists who tell stories from the heart with their
music.
What
do you hope to achieve in music?
I just hope that
someday my music will reach out to others and help somebody.
What
has been the highlight of your career so far, and why?
I played a show
at the Hard Rock Cafe in Pittsburgh last year. I opened a show for the band
Nine Days and a lot of people in the crowd were singing my lyrics along with
me. There's no way to describe the joy I get from someone else liking my music
enough to memorize the words. They were a great crowd and a really great show.
And
what’s the moment you want to forget?
I have no
regrets. Everything happens for a reason. Although sometimes that reason is
unclear for a while, it always works itself out in the end.
If
you had to pick just one of your songs to represent your music, what would it
be and why?
(We are) Who we are. The song is about how we are who we are. And that we
should love each other regardless of our defects. The world doesn't have to be
full of judgement and hatred. But it's up to us to change it. We're all just
trying to find our way in life.
Where
can we listen to it?
Where can we
find out more about your music?
Anything
else you’d like to say about your band/music that I forgot to ask?
Music
is all I've ever wanted to do. I hope to have the chance to travel, play
my music, and hopefully make a difference.
