Songwriting awards
Hi guys,
This has been a fun journey. I learned last week that I now became a triple treat!
I registered to Two International songwriting contests and I placed semi-finalist on :Unsigned only and Song of the year 2015. I did Runner-up position at Song of the year in 2013 as well! I believe that its so wonderful to be a great vocalist but two others things are even more important: Bringing your own flavor through impactful original songs, have natural vocal abilities.
Vocal technique, play an instrument is something you can learn. Creativity , originality and vocal abilities are given to you and that`s what makes you talented. Competition is so fierce and sometimes I wish we were in another music ERA ... Recording a quality album can cost over 60 000$ -- I am working on producing a quality album that you wont forget. Songs that are researched and well constructed and I put lots of feelings in there- Hope you can feel that when you hear it***!
I have been performing for Community causes. I have been named LITTLE ANGELS 2015 spokes person. Sometimes I put on a Cinderella outfit... SOUNDS WEIRD??!! well.. I sing and perform to help kids fight cancer ☺--♥ Ill dress up in a heart beat to save a child.
On my way, I decided not to do crowd-funding. I am not here to beg, i don't think its elegant.. Lolll and I am a fighter! I will get all resources on my own!! Never give up on your dreams and follow your instincts it is so important in this world full of sharks ready to eat you , head first!!!--- Love being compared by listeners to Celine "the other Canadian singer" and to Adele. I even got compared to Amanda Marshall and Kate bush. All my album songs are recorded on demos guitar voice. I am doing more sound research and trying folk instruments adding drums and other hings on them at the moment. Building up a band as well for live shows. When everything will be in place I will apply to FACTOR music grant for my full album and finance the balance.We are making some planning as material came alive and is more concrete now. I think we have great chances at this as I already got a FACTOR FUNDED projects with my demo grant. LETS DO THIS-- hey ***FIGHTERS**Dont hesitate to come say HI .....Love hearing from you- it makes it all worth it - ♪ On Your team
Cheers xox
