Hi, I’m Casey. I’m 16 years old and will be starting my first year of college this September. I’m very excited about this, and generally anything that is a new project. On my 13th birthday my Dad bought me a CD. Up to this point I have NEVER been interested in music, unless you call being forced to play the recorder in primary an interest. Anyway back to the CD. The CD was ‘Taylor Swift – Fearless’. My parents doubted me listening to it, as I hated music. However from that day, 26th June 2009 the CD was on constant repeat. The following November on the 24th, myself, my Mum and my Sister, Kara travelled to Manchester Evening News Arena. This was a great day. Seeing Taylor Swift live!! The atmosphere was immense and just so loud. I remember her covering the stage in bright lights, big dresses and her band. From then I learnt the guitar. I’m self-taught however I did have the occasional help of my music teacher Mr Tricket. I thank all of my music teachers for their help. 

I’ve always wanted to write music, but I didn’t really believe I could write a song. Now that’s different. Since I learnt the guitar and built up the courage to sing I then was in a band with some of my class mates. That didn’t work out, but it was a good experience. We got some money from it so we were all happy. After the band ended, when we finished high school I began to record some of my own songs. I recorded my own songs with the band but they were more in the genre of rock so I don’t use them anymore. My first song I recorded as ‘Bright Light’. I was proud. My Mum was proud too. Yes, now it irritates me but it was an accomplishment. After my first song I have recorded many more and written too many more songs to count. 

Writing confuses me. It angers me. Yet I keep doing it because I love it. Some songs will take me 10 minutes to write some can take a week. Everything I write will have some significance but I will not directly tell you what there about because it will be a confrontation. Also I don’t want to explain. I will just say it means nothing to avoid the awkward conversation of how I feel. One song is very meaningful and the title gives it away of what it is about. This song is ‘Mother’. I love my Mum. She’s given me life. She gives me courage, determination, confidence and her ability to cook. I will always continue to write music because I enjoy it. Lyrics come to me randomly. When I want to write I can never think. However when I’m in the bath or trying to sleep I am overwhelmed with lyrics. So I grab my phone and record into it. There are many recordings of me mumbling tunes.

First performance. The first time I ever performed was in a small, closed music room in front of my BTEC music group of around 20 people. It doesn’t seem many, but when you’re on your own at the front with a microphone and an acoustic guitar, it’s scary. I sang Katy Perry – Teenage Dream. Ha. I feel sorry for myself if I look back. Since that performance, I performed for a school event, charity fund raiser and our end of yeah leaver’s assembly with the band, and on my own in front of about 250 people for a different event. That was scary but I loved it. 

I love cats.

Lastly I would like to thank everyone. Well everyone who has been in my life. First, my Mum. I love you so much you have your own song. Everything you do is an accomplishment – I mean your biggest one has to be me you are an amazing woman who I hope to be like one day. You’re aspiring. My Dad. THANK YOU. Without you I would never be the person I am now. Without the CD you bought me I would be a really dull person. You irritate me most of the time but I will always love you as you are my pappy! My Brother. You’re my big brother. I can get lifts off you barely spend time with you because you work too much, but when we do we have a laugh. Whether it’s playing tennis over the fence or being crazy competitive on fifa. My Sister. You’re my big sister. Shared a room with you for 16 years and now you have left me. Always will have a special bond with you. I always will love you and I will be going to your house very often. You were the musical child when we were growing up, I have now taken over. LOVE YOU ALL. Now for anyone who has taken time to listen to one of my songs on YouTube, SoundCloud or listened to me in a concert. I thank you. It’s awesome that people actually listen to it. If you took time to like my Facebook page, message me about my music or tweet me. Thank you for your time you take.

So this is a pretty long Bio. I doubt many people if any will read this, if any. If you did thank you if you do. This was more for me because if I look at what I’ve done I’m proud. It’s good to say it all out loud at one point. This is basically all of my life, because before music my life was like a normal kid – except I was a real tomboy. So thanks. Keep listening to my songs and watching my covers. PEACE!
