What inspires you to write music...?
Most people ask me what inspires me to write a song and my honest answer is, LIFE. I'm a very passionate and emotional person and I express my feelings and past experiences through my music. My song "fall" is based on the part of us that hated ourselves and we wish that one day we will be able to ("fly away, ill resist you some day") break free from it. A lot of people can relate to these lyrics.
Many people ask me how to write a good song. I have no idea, it just comes to me. I can be in the bath, on the train, falling asleep and suddenly I get an idea, hear a beat and a melody and I have to quickly record it. The next day I listen to it and make a song around it.
What do you do for hours on Myspace....?
I spend hours networking and getting my name out there in hope to be recognised by labels, other artists for collaborations, magazines, photographers and other business opportunities. I have spent about two years getting to where I am and my hard self-promotion is paying off. I have fans around the world and lots of people saying they want my songs on their IPod and they want to meet me. ALL THROUGH THIS WEBSITE. Everyone does it this way these days. The internet is huge, what better way to get yourself noticed?
I also spent my time helping youngsters who self harm and suffer from depression. I have a blog dedicated to help sufferers out there.
Do YOU actually run your Myspace?
Yes, yes, yes!!! This is my only official profile. My personal friends have my private profile and I run EMJ's haven. NO fakers allowed!
EM-J in the PRESS
I was featured on an online magazine, Voltcase last year, I have been interviewed on the worldwide radio station, "Voice America" which estimated at 1.9 million listeners on average. My songs have been played to a variety of audiences and I have successfully wowed rappers, country singers and people who never listen to my genre of music! I have been interviewed on RADIO NC, a USA radio station and continue to slowly get my name out there. I was interviewed with William Hung (american idol auditionee) Tony Castellano, heavy weight champion and creative director at showtime networks in NEW YORK. I have been featured on numerous music publications online and I am doing a music video soon that hopefully will get onto music tv stations!
I'm a singer/songwriter from the UK. At the moment I am working a lot in Norway and am looking forward to working more in Norway than in the UK. I am hoping to move to the states in the next year to promote myself as an artist and to promote my image. I will be doing my music video in September in Norway! I have been classically trained as a teenager and used to sing mainly Opera. I am dedicated, hard working and determined to fulfill my dream. Currently I am working with a variety of musicians and I have formed a solid band. I am working with Asmund Sveinugarrd, the ex guitarist from metal band Mortiis, Ben Christo from the Sisters of Mercy, James Bartlett from Guitar, Stuart Norman from Desolation, Chris Williams from Desolation and have worked with Greg Haver who produced the Manic Street Preachers and Romesh, funeral for a friend producer. Over the next few months I am releasing three new songs as well as a future music video with Right Eye Productions.
I have had numerous radio interviews such as Voice America and my music is appreciated by all generations!
My music is dark, gothic rock mixed with a classical edge to it. If I compare myself to any other artists I would have to say, "Evanescence, Avril Lavigne, Joan Jett (apparently), Within Temptation or Nightwish". Thank You for all your support and as a friend of mine would say... "you ain't seen nothing yet"!
