About Me |
|
| Hey everyone, thanks for stopping by and taking the time to read a little about me. My family is from Belfast Northern Ireland and although I lived there for a few years as a wee girl most of my memories come from growing up in a house filled with music and animals in Kingston Ontario Canada. I am the youngest of five children. That's right FIVE children! I still can't believe my Mum gave birth to five kids! It seems unimaginable to me now, what an amazing Mum she was! Anyway music was always a big part of our lives since my Dad played guitar and sang professionally, before moving to Canada where he became a professor at Queens University. I have the fondest memories of my Dad playing guitar and singing me to sleep at night. My mother played piano and also loved to sing. All the children in my family studied music and we all played the piano, but later, like my father I took to the guitar, his guitar! heheheAfter getting a guitar for my birthday years and years ago from an old boyfriend I began writing my own songs. Back then however I played for an audience of the furry kind. I love my animals xoAbout ten years ago I moved out to Vancouver and there I started an open mic and began singing with a band. I loved it..it was such a rush but the adventurous side got the best of me and I soon took off to Korea where I spent the next two years of my life.While in Korea I taught English and was an actress on a tv show called Survival English. I met other musicians and we often jammed and performed in local the bars. It was an incredible experience.
When I arrived back in Canada I moved to Toronto where I continued my musical journey.
However I soon got a job... a real job and music became a distant second to the amazing amount of money I was making... but soon money wasn't enough. I was aching to play but after work all I wanted was my bed. So I quit. I had to be true to myself.
After that I took a break and moved to Dominica Island. It's the most untouched island in the Caribbean. My home was nestled in the rain forest and I lived off the fruit and vegetables that grew wild in the forest. It was an incredible experience. I wrote songs while out there but eventually the humidity ruined my guitar, so I just wrote lyrics and poetry.
After seven months I returned to Canada and have been living in Toronto ever since.A couple of years ago I hooked up with Toad (you can find him on myspace) he played keyboards for Nelly Furtado for years and Yurko (also on myspace ) her old guitar player and they produced the three songs I am currently showcasing here on myspace.I really appreciate all the interest, positive feedback and support .
Please remember be kind to the animals, it would be a terrible world to live in without them.Peace and love,RachelSave The World - One Click At A Time!
