LIFE... or something like it...

My life in these past few weeks have been crazy!!!! CRAZY in a GOOD way. I have had plenty of rehearsals, gigs, work and school... I'm so tired I don't want to sleep!

These past couple of months I've just done back up vocals for different artists. Just an update...

April 1, 2011 I had went back to my hometown and performed at the groovin 801 performing with Angelline (Afo). Band members included, Sii Moimoi, Donnie Wolfgramm, Tony Uesi, and Gordon Moimoi. A show with seasoned musicians is bound to only have a good show! And a good show it was. From every drum beat to every pulled string on the guitar it was a good time. Hopefully, we'll be able to meet up once again and do what we love... MUSIC!

In the month of March I was able to sing for Artists like Marina Tiafau and Nicole (Nive) Noga. These two girls, as young as they are have exceptional voices. It was both of their first time performing as a soloist and did a fine job. Only to become better the more they keep pushing themselves.

One last artist, Erica Yandall. Erica is actually one of my really good friends from school (Musicians Institute) We started school together last Spring. A very humble, but driven girl. She was able to coordinate great harmonies for us back up vocals as well as well command the stage. She's AWESOME!

Being a singer you come across a lot of different opportunities. I've sung in churches, casinos, clubs, bars, I've sang for homeless, weddings, NFL players, BYU Players, etc but probably one of the highlights of performing these past few months would have to be opening for DJ quik/Suga Free... these two artists brought back a lot of memories from when I was younger. As they performed I felt like I was back in my oldest brothers ghetto blue beat up car bumpin and rappin. every word that came out of DJ Quik's mouth. It was a good time. I wasn't able to chill with them but was able to get a picture with Suga Free. There's just something different about performing on the same stage as people that you've listened to your whole life. and I enjoyed every minute. Thank you Erica Yandall for the experience.

I've also had the opportunity to meet other poly artists JBoog, Alo Key, Spawnbreezie, Teki (not really fair cuz I grew up with the dude but hey... yall can pretend that it was the first time meeting him HAHA), and others, each very unique in style but sing for the same reason.. The LOVE for music.

I have nothing but high hopes for the future and know that this is something that I want to keep pursuing. I love my life. And music just adds more love to it!!!! MMM MMM GOOD!!!
