Talia (US)
My name is Talia. I was born in Blytheville, Arkansas , The Durdie South as most people would call it. I recently moved to Virginia in order to start fresh financially and hope to pursue a career in music. My genre is R/B, GOSPEL, SOUL. I dabbled a little in RAP; but rap not my forte;0). I'll try it if it's put before me. Who knows what could happen.
I first started singing in my church choir, later entering talent shows and local functions when I was in the fifth grade. In the tenth grade, I begin to join other local bands as a hook singer. My local radio station 93.9 played my first song "How Could You", featuring Trey Gandy ( now CEO of Trey Gandy Entertainment ) when I was in the tenth grade.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I perform live. I had the privilege to sing at talent shows as a special guest, funerals, weddings, and birthday parties as well.
Your musical influences
The church, r/b, gospel, jazz, hip hop, rap are my musical influences.
What equipment do you use?
A stringless instrument.....My voice and my spirit.
Anything else?
My mission is to be able to continue to share with the world each gift that I am blessed with in the category of singing, songwriting, choreography, and hairstyling. I want to be able to tell others that have dreams, no matter what catagory it falls; Never give up. If you fall down five times, get up six. And "always reach high, for the stars lies in the soul- dream deep because every dream starts with the goal"(Ralph Vaull Starr).
