Being a musician is more than just being someone that makes music. Most people wouldn’t consider their job to be inseparable from who they are as a person, but that’s what makes musicians different. It’s not a choice as much as it’s something that is just part of you. It’s what you HAVE to do: to be balanced, to be happy, to be fulfilled…You MUST make music.
That is me. There
are a lot of people that really don’t understand that about me. Even though I function well when I’m not
making music, if I don’t have it, it’s like I start to lose a piece of
myself. I feel lost. I feel uneasy.
It’s hard to describe what it feels like to share songs and
moments with an audience to someone that has never done it. That high you get from the energy of a show,
the pulse of the music that resonates through ever piece of your body. It’s incredible. It’s unlike anything else.
It doesn’t matter if it’s a dance track, a slow emotional
ballad, or an experimental jam type song.
The style is irrelevant. The
power, is in making someone feel it. It’s about sharing an emotion. In that moment, you let yourself be consumed
with that emotion and in return, the whole room becomes consumed by it
too. That is magic.
To be perfectly honest, that’s what I live for. Those moments when you get to feel
that. It’s like falling in love, over
and over again. It’s what makes me a
good wife, it’s what makes me a good friend, it’s what makes me a stronger
person. Living for that little bit of
magic….
It’s what makes me, ME.
