Starfaded
My name is Sheena Abrena and I play the guitar/sing/write. I write all my songs as they come to me, usually while playing whatever whenever.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I don't really have a history [band-wise]. I just go with the flow.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I play whenever the opportunity comes up. Me and one of my friends Amber paired up once to perform at a local Battle of the Bands - her with vocals and me with guitar.
Your musical influences
The first time I ever was intrigued by a guitar was when I was about 2. I was out of the country for a visit to the Philippines and I remember some dude playing an acoustic.
The first time I ever wanted to actually play was the airing of Buffy the Vampire Slayer's "Tabula Rasa" which featured Michelle Branch's song "Goodbye to you". The song enraptured me and got me started on the way to awesomeness. =)
What equipment do you use?
Just my electric guitar and amp + my voice. I try to go for an acoustic sound and I'm looking to get a nice solid acoustic-electric. Oh, and I've got an old classical guitar.
For recording, I use Audacity and a webcam mic. Why? Because I'm poor. Sue me for the 50 cents I have.
I will get a proper mic sometime in the next couple months, though.
Anything else?
I'm cool.
