tell us a bit about yourself. Where you come from, where you’re going.

I’m just a nerd who found her voice! Been playing piano and writing songs since I was 7. Voice lessons for the last 10 years. My new album will be the vehicle to share my music in a new, big way. We are nearly done tracking and it will be ready for your ears in May!

What have been some of the biggest influences for you and your music? Where does your inspiration come from?

Some of my earliest memories of music was big band, jazz & blues. I grew up feeling like Glenn Miller was a friend that I had just never met. Musicals & Broadway songs were always sung in the house, so naturally singing and dancing around was a daily thing. When I picked up playing piano, one of my first pieces of sheet music I learned was ‘Your Song’ by Elton John. My Elton and Billy Joel obsession continued from there. As far as inspiration today, I’d like to think I have figured out how to allow everything that hits my ear to be inspiration. As a songwriter, I am absorbing ideas from every experience. 

 

For those who haven’t heard your music, how would you describe your sound in one sentence?

I could describe my music as Rock/Soul I suppose? With some jazzy/blues sprinkled in of course. You can decide for yourself In May 😉

 

Style for days

With the direction the music industry is headed, how do you think Conquer stand out from the rest?

Conquer Entertainment is different from other platform or management organizations because of the one on one support. I have learned so much from the Conquer team, their ideas, advice and perspective on music in today’s world. Not to mention they are hella friendly!

Glamour.

Do you have any advice for fans trying to make it in music?

Well, you’ll never make it until it makes you. 

Dig in. Get lost. Listen. Write. Practice. Perform. Transform. And fall in love with the process everyday. 

That at least is my process. When I make it, I’ll let you know how well it worked.

My Album. The Spring release will be exciting! Promoting, marketing, touring this creation will most likely keep me busy for the rest of the year! Oh and we’ve already started some exciting music videos for a couple of my originals. 2017 here I come…

Can’t wait for Missy’s upcoming album!
