I've grown up listening to my parents music, quite typical, everything from the Red Hot Chili Peppers to Avril Lavigne to Metallica and Iron Maiden. I used to sing along to songs in the car from a small age to every song I heard. Then when I was in year 7 I watched the film 'Rock of Ages' and thought "oh my gosh" "this music is amazing", I had to know more about this music. Low and behold my dad had so much more music than I thought. From that point on I knew what I wanted to do: be a vocalist for a hard rock or metal band. Once I had singing lessons and had gotten more confident with singing I began to do performances at school, to get used to singing in front of people. This was beyond scary for me. But as time went on I got a lot better at it, and got into college doing music.
Right now I am in a metal band called Broken Veins as the vocalist, which I am really proud of. At the moment we have released a single on all platforms called 'Out of Mind'.  We are looking to get more gigs, so we are creating and learning a setlist in order to do so. Not only am I in this band but I am studying Level 3 Music at Strode Music, I have almost completed my first year.

In the future, I plan to get further education in music at uni to really understand the music industry. With Broken Veins I hope to write and release more music, get gigs to be exposed in the music industry and maybe even make a music video.
