Simply A Singer

I suppose this is the page where I should put my resume – list the places I’ve performed, the big names that I’ve shared a stage with, mention that I used to the anthem for UConn basketball… – but, those things are not important to me. I’d rather share a little story.

I had been in cover bands for years. Though it was fun, I became more and more dissatisfied with doing it. Sure it was great fun to be part of a party – giving a crowd what they wanted: good vibes and familiar tunes that they could dance to. Knowing that you make people feel good was a cool thing. But, it didn’t satisfy something inside of me.

I began some serious soul searching and asking God what He wanted me to do with this voice he had given me: I can sing opera, gospel, jazz, R&B — 5 octaves,on stage no joke. What God, what? The answer came that I should do music in a different way. I yearned for something more, something greater from myself. I wanted to express me. I wanted to write and perform songs that were more reflective of who I am and what I want to say to others.

So this woman, who is simply a singer, writes and records songs and loves it.

I’m not a kid, so quite often when I tell people that I’m a recording artist it generates a look from them that perhaps I’m a little off my rocker. Reactions like that make me smile. Then there are others who get excited and inspired by this choice that I’ve made. To sing is what I am. I understand that now, so it is what I will continue to do. It makes me feel whole and complete.

So, welcome to my journey into the light and to my awakening to the artist that is me.

I pray that everyone finds their passion and has the courage to embrace and pursue it. Do what you are and let’s make this world a better place.
