I was born and raised in California. Moved around a lot when I was younger, and music was the only thing that I could never lose, that would never leave me no matter where I ended up, so as I grew older I became more and more passionate and attached. It was never something I saw and wanted, it was something that was already inside me, and sort of just naturally bloomed into something more and more beautiful over the years. There has been this constant rhythm inside me since I can remember. It has never stopped. I'm always tapping my teeth together in beats, or my fingertips against every surface. I remember being a small child doing this, even before I started singing, and that is the core of what has brought me here.
I think one of the most interesting moments of live performance, was when I was performing a song at a karaoke booth located in the Universal City Walk in Hollywood, CA. I was wearing a sweater with the hood on, due to the cold weather, and people kept thinking I was Amy Lee from the rock band Evanescence. People kept walking up to look closer at me, and I could hear them asking others if I was her. I was a teenager during that time, and oddly had a lot of physical and vocal similarity to her. I got somewhat of a thrill from it, cause I thought that was considered a pretty awesome comparison, vocally.
I believe one of my most embarrassing moments, live, had to be when I became too emotionally involved with my original piece I was preforming. I started crying mid-song, and anyone who has ever tried to sing while they're crying, knows how incredibly crumbled your sound can get. But it wasn't so much the vocal part of it that bothered me, it was more-so how I gave myself away in how the lyrics had effected me, and what it was about those lyrics I wasn't so ready for people to know about me.
My Luna acoustic guitar. Now this wasn't my first instrument, and piano truly is the winner of my heart, but what had made the connection with this specific instrument so special, was how I had spent about 5 hours in the music store just looking for that chemistry, that feel. I had finally found it in this specific guitar, and this guitar was with me during one of the hardest times of my life. I wrote some of my most healing originals with her, and it almost felt like she had become some person that I completely cut myself open to, and trusted more than anyone. Someone stole her right out of my car, and it took me a long time to get over it. It felt like they stole a huge piece of me, and like someone I deeply loved passed away. Might sound a little over-dramatic, but I was deeply hurt. I always felt this guitar as being a female. She had crescent-to-full moons down the neck, which made her feel almost feminine to me, along with the ''Luna" name.
