What Music Did You Grow Up With?

I wanna take a break from talking about the healing journey and talk about music cuz that’s my passion in life 🎶👏🏻

There’s musicians and song writers on both sides of my family. I have a HUGE family. 100 cousins on both sides of my family but I’m closer to my dad’s side. My aunt Becky use to be on local radio in the 80’s for gospel music. I grew up listening to an Uncle sing never knowing he wrote most of the songs he sang 😳 He just doesn’t brag about it but he’s so talented!! (I always thought the songs he sang came from gospel radio)

My dad can mess around for fun on the piano and guitar but doesn’t actually play. He can sing a little too but also doesn’t do it seriously… My MOM on the other hand though, she can chord on piano and guitar PLUS she’s the BEST singer I’ve ever heard in the whole world. She’s got soul and range but she’ll never ever brag about it 🥺🥰 and she never thinks she’s as good as she is. I’ve heard her sing all of my life and it has always intimated me LOL People always ask do I sing like my mom and it’s like “HAH, I wish…” 😅 My brother and my nieces also sing really well.

My dad always played pop music at home, soft rock and smooth jazz. My mom played gospel music and blue grass. My older brother always played heavy metal privately when I would ride in his mustang with him but played country music in front of our parents to cover up what he was actually listening to…. Hah I heard a range of music styles growing up.

For me, I listened to pop and r&b. My favorite was Craig David but I also loved Brian McKnight, Boyz ll Men and Ne-yo. I loved “The Year of a Gentleman” album. At 17, I thought I was a rapper LOL I use to listen to Bone, thugs and harmony plus DMX lol By the time I’m in my 20s, I fell in love with trance and EDM. I was depressed for 3 and a half years and trance music such as Jax Jones, Above & Beyond, got me through. By the time I’m 26, I’m in love with indie pop-rock music such as: The 1975, Bad Suns, Atlas, The Bleachers, etc… In my darkest moments, I leaned on Bad Suns the most. There songs just got me through where I was.

I have listened to music my whole life. Music is the only language I truly speak and relate to others and life situations. When I can’t get people to understand me, I put a song in its place 🎶👏🏻 I have never sang in front of family seriously or sang them a song I’ve written 😳 I’m shy haha but I’ve written songs on the piano I’ve played…. Maybe one day I’ll sing for my family. I’ve played in a few bands over the years but only playing the piano. I’ve also played the organ and the violin. Gospel music has mostly shaped my abilities but pop music drives my lyrics 👏🏻👏🏻

I’ve been noticed before by Jesse McCartney, Gareth Emery, Tritonal and a few others… Jesse McCartney actually in 2010 said my song “Be With You” was notable on his MySpace blog… Nothing came of it though. Was like my 10 seconds of fame LOL 😂. I had a lot of Jesse fan haters after that…. It’s all good though. I did not write the song for his fans to love me. It was a song I wrote for him out of love for him. (I don’t like to talk about Jesse anymore like I use to but I have mentioned him a couple times)

Concerts: My 1st real concert was in 2000, it was *NSYNC’s no strings attached Haha Got to sit in the nose bleed section. It made the band look like little stick figures hehe Funny stuff… but my favorite concert I’ve EVER been to believe it or not was in 2011, a Christmas band called “Mannheim Steamroller” Wow they are amaaaaaazing. If you love Christmas music, which I dooooooo, they bring nostalgia but have a whole orchestra behind them combined with synthasizers which incorporates my love for pop music too! Sooo good!!!! Another concert I loved was in 2019, Colton Dixon. He’s a Christian rock singer and he has a moment on the piano just of him singing solo and it was beautiful and intimate! It’s moments in music like those that you never forget ❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🎶

When I make music, it’s always from my heart. I only write about what I can’t say out loud in a normal conversation. I always say the truth, even when it’s hurting me. Music is my escape and always has been. I remember when Jesse McCartney said that one time in like 2009 or something and that resonated with me beyond words. Music has the power to link people together!!!!

You can hear my music on the following platforms: Spotify, SoundCloud and Bandlab. My usernames are songwriter88 and songwriter1988 I was on TikTok but that’s currently a private account for obvious reasons. If you’re a musician like me, share your music with me below 👍🏻 I’m always looking for new songs to add to my faves list!!

A very personal song I wrote in 2021:

[my-chaos-radio]

Release: February 13, 2012

Lyrics:

Let me breath you in and breath the words in your mouth

Inside your shivering, the silence shouts so loud

I just want to, I just want to stay around

And while my heart beats,

I promise I won't let you down

If I'm somewhere else it doesn't mean that I don't see

That you don't trust yourself,

That's why you don't trust me

It makes me crazy,

When you're crazy, you don't speak

You think you know me,

But what you know is just skin deep

If you keep building these walls,

Brick by brick towers so tall

Soon I won't see you at all, until the concrete angel falls

I knew who you were from the start,

But now I don't know who you are

Soon there will be nothing at all,

Until the concrete angel falls

Songwriter:

If you keep building these walls,

Brick by brick towers so tall

Soon I won't see you at all, until the concrete angel falls

I knew who you were from the start,

But now I don't know who you are

Soon there will be nothing at all,

Until the concrete angel falls
