Where are you /your band from?
I am based out of Charlotte, NC!
What type of music did you hear the most growing up?
I listened to a lot of blues and jazz with my family growing up, although I was always a fan of pop as well.
What made you first realize you wanted to pursue a career in music?
I have been singing and playing guitar and piano since I was a little girl, so music has always been very ingrained in me. I think I first realized that this was something I would look to pursue when I was in my sophomore year of college. I really got into writing music and started performing around town some, and after that, I was hooked. Towards the end of my college career is when I really figured out that this was the only thing I want to do with my life.
What sets you apart from other bands/artists today?
I think the music industry can be a very ego driven world. I try my hardest not to make my music about that, I just want to create something that people can connect to and use as a therapeutic outlet. I also feel that my music has a really different feel to it than a lot of other artists.
Are there any stories surrounding your songs that you’d care to share?
On paper, I would consider it Jazz/Pop, and as I said, I grew up listening to a lot of blues and jazz, so it was always really important to me to be able to incorporate that into my music.

What do you do with your time away from music?
I spend a lot of time with my 9-month-old Husky Golden Retriever, Moose! I treasure the bond that he and I have formed together. We got on lots of walks and adventures, and I think I enjoy it just as much as he does! I am also very passionate about maintaining a healthy lifestyle, so I workout and try to eat healthy as much as possible.
Any upcoming shows/tours/news?
I do have some big upcoming shows that I will be able to share very soon! I am also very excited to announce that I will be releasing my music video for “The One” tomorrow, February 12th! I am really excited about this and can’t wait for all of my fans to see what it’s all about. – MB
