My Grandparents met @ Church & were both in the choir,my Great Grandfather was the choirmaster also my Great Granmother(Mothers side, Grandmother,7 Great Aunts on Grandfathers side all sang in the choir,w/Great Grampa also being the Organist!There is much more to the families singing abilities & natural performance talents including Aunts,Uncles & cousins of several generations. I also have family on my Fathers side/well known musicians & singers in Italy & Australia/Arizona. I enjoy almost every genre of music & like to combine sounds/genre's in my own unique way.I had stopped playing piano @ 11 because I wanted to play the guitar.My Parents were shocked when I had decided to sing & play @ my 6th grade talent show-my own song on guitar.Donning my red cowgirl hat,jeans & boots,I played the first time for my parents,my secret song "Unbroken & Free" for around 600 people, so thrilled that everyone was Astounded! No one else wrote & played their own original song. I had earlier in the summer had written & sung for my parents a song I wrote for entering Middle school called "Movin' on in Life" however I never recorded it.
