Melodic, honest, revealing. If you can relate at all to the feeling underneath the lyrics, then I've done my job.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I've been writing for as long as I can remember (I'm 22), but picked up a guitar for the first time in 2001 and decided to bring life to my words. With the support and expertise of friend/mentor Jose Gomez, I recorded my first demo in June of 2004, entitled "Friday Morning." I'm looking forward to recording new songs and as always, meeting new musicians.
Your musical influences
So many to name...Well, Rochester-based band Junction Five have had a huge influence on me musically. I've also been a long time fan of Canadian bands Our Lady Peace and The Tea Party, and I've become rather attached to their lyrical style. I also love Thornley, Big Wreck, Brand New, Straylight Run, Fiona Apple, Jewel, Audioslave, Gin Blossoms, Howie Day, Avril Lavigne, Get Up Kids, Sunny Day Real Estate, and Dido.
What equipment do you use?
I have a Dean acoustic and Fender Telecaster.
Anything else?
To all who have contributed to the making of my cd, by producing/playing, giving feedback, or even being the muse: Thank You!!!
Teresa
