About me: Victoria Trestrail was born and raised on the island of Trinidad in the Caribbean.
A poet for over 20 years, she was first published internationally at the age of 14. "Feelings," a passionate ode to music was included in the anthology "Whispers in the Wind."
Victoria is a self taught guitarist who struggled for many years, sometimes putting down her guitar for long periods at a time. The noteworthy shift between practising cover songs and discovering the intricacies of developing melody and uniting it with lyrics in songwriting came together two years ago and there sprung forth a fountain of emotional inspiring and empowering music of all genres.
Victoria is branching out, and her music has left the shores of Trinidad and is receiving airplay on radio stations in the United States, Canada and France. Her fanbase stretches from Central America to Poland, Iran, South America and India to name a few. Her gospel music is played on the #1 online gospel station in Southern California www.kjfj.com. Her Country and Americana music is played on stations in the Southern United States.
Earlier this year Victoria was signed by two United States Music Licensing companies Manifest Media and Human Factor, who seek to place her tracks in the hands of music supervisors and multi-media executive who scout for fresh music for tv/film/advertisements and web clients.
Her latest song "Johnny's Fool" is a collaboration with an extremely gifted young Trinidadian Producer by the name of Rishi Ramlagan a.k.a. Mo'Times Productions who put a beautiful arrangement together for her song "Johnny's Fool" - the song is heavily rotated on 93.5FM in Trinidad.
When asked about how she is able to successfully write profound lyrics and also create sweet melodies in various genres such as gospel, reggae, calypso, latin, pop, rock & country she replies, "My gift comes from the most high God, he is my co-songwriter and partner, I live to honour him, and he blesses me forever".
When asked about future plans, she responds " I would like to write songs for the biggest acts in the world. How will I get there? God will place my music and my music video in front of the right ears and eyes, he will handpick me for them, and them for me"
