ViviLittleM 3 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/06/03/lady-gaga-music-before-fame_n_7494466.html?ncid=tweetlnkushpmg00000027I’ve been composing ever since I was four, when I first touched the keys of my dad’s old piano and I still remember the first song I heard. My dad was listening to what I now know was Pink Floyd’s “Money,” and understanding only the sounds of the cash register in the intro, I wrote a song called “Dollar Bills” on my Mickey Mouse staff paper. The musical notation was of high quality in comparison to the lyrics on the page -- none of which were actually spelled correctly.I've always had some difficulty saying what I really mean with just words.I think the greatest thing any composer/performer can do is free their minds. When you really really let go and get lost, you find everything else you never knew was there.The summer after my first year of college I pretty much found my freedom. I got my own apartment, lugged my keyboard down to Stanton and Clinton, and left Tisch for a semester.I wrote forever, put together a band of guys who really believed in my stuff -- Eli, Alex and Calvin -- and I began playing at every downtown venue I could get my music in. I remember once pretending to be my own PR rep, calling to book “STEFANI, an emerging talent” and booked myself later in the week. Paul and Kenny gave me my first break, and there I was, on stage at The Bitterend.I’m now a regular show at the Bitterend and other downtown usual suspects. I’m selling out shows and playing huge NYU events and Benefits. My music range is bittersweet rock ballads to power-pop rock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
