How and when you started making music : 'I taught myself how to play piano at age 6 and I have played and written music ever since.'
What makes your music different? 'I love the darkness. Most musicians write about sadness to some degree, but there is always hope on the other end, an outcry of how justice will prevail. Mine does not reflect hope it simply shows raw emotions. How
the mind works in these delicate times, even if it is dark and twisted.
This does not mean however, that I don't write the occasional uplifting
song. Sacrifice is about the transcendence of the human soul and how one
can grow to love instead of hate.'
Convince me to see your next show : 'In the shadows shines a light, bright with power and beauty. A raging
Goddess of passion and delight stands before you with the voice of an
angel. The music is delicate and dreamy, amidst the color of beautiful
lights and imagery, she emerges alone adorned in feathers and a 1920s
boudoir flare. Then it begins - the darkness, the piano, her voice.'
Why is it important for you to connect with music fans and what do you have to offer them as an artist? 'I only wanted to be an artist to help others. Music has always given me
strength to get through anything. Doesn't matter how hard times get,
when you put a good song on it encompasses your heart and your mind and
takes you to a little place where you can see the truth inside yourself.
This is the place I want my music to take people in their grief,
changes, romance, and happiness. To give someone a reason to wake up the
next day is why I write these songs.'
