Music 1010
Reflection of Music
For more than half of my life, music
has been a big deal to me. When I was in
middle school I started to really get into alternative rock music. I was introduced to such bands as 311,
Incubus, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and so forth.
It wasn’t until later on that I got introduced to Switchfoot who immediately
became and is still to this day my favorite band. They made me look at music in a way that was inspiring
and sentimental. I was inspired to play
and write music like them. I learned how
to play the guitar, I already knew how to sing (I’ll explain that later), and I
started writing lyrics. I’ve performed
with a couple of rock bands and have enjoyed entertaining people and sharing my
music passion with them.
I was a dancer in middle school and
desired to be a dancing waiter in the musical “Hello Dolly!” when I was a
sophomore in high school. I passed based
on my dancing, though it wasn’t until I started singing that people told me I
had a beautiful voice. I had no idea I
had that kind of talent. Ever since
then, I took singing seriously. I practiced every day, learned how to read
music, and eventually tried out for the high school Madrigals as a tenor and
made it. Now I use that talent to write
music and inspire others.
Music is one of the biggest portions
of my life. I love it because it speaks
to my heart and soul. It can be very
uplifting, inspiring, and even motivating, all while pleasing your ear with
great music. I’m still way into
alternative rock music and don’t plan on quitting writing and performing music
anytime soon.
