Don’t let her size fool you; this 5’1” singer-songwriter is not afraid to bang on the keys. Learning piano at age four, composing music at age thirteen, and recording her first EP in her living room at age fifteen, Debbie Neigher has been crafting music on her own terms for as long as she can remember. Her classical training in piano, her father's love for jazz, and a childhood of attending punk and hardcore shows in her native state of New Jersey have all helped to forge her unique sound. Debbie's unabashed blend of rock, jazz, and pop is a refreshing surge of originality, combining unapologetically loud piano riffs with silky vocals. Debbie’s catchy melodies and honest lyrics allow this young artist to truly stand out as she frequents the talented singer-songwriter music scene.
The struggle has made it hard for me to grow up sane. If my heart had a mouth, it would throw up pain. Despite the obstacles in my path, I'll soar above it all. I will achieve greatness and I'm sure I'll love it all. My passion will drive me to explore new heights In reflection of a lion as I roar through life. In the hands of defeat, I'm returning in disguise Only to have sweet victory burning in my eyes. As a youth, I took on the responsibilities of a grown man. Rest assured, my destiny lies within my own hands. We must connect our minds in order to rise. It's very hard to overlook pain with watery eyes.
