General

Read Here to begin to understand:

Born of a Harley Riding Engineer Rock & Rollin' Daddy & a Catholic School/Drama Teacher Momma in the burb of a small southern town just north of New Orleans. Parents divorced when I was 5, but with houses next door to each other. I lived with my Mom. Dad traveled alot for work & built a new family. Living in my household as an only child, I enterained myself with my imagination. Couches became mountains, closets turned into rocketships or elevators. I went to strange lands and brought my friends with me. My favorite toy was a carboard box and some markers. It could be a manison, a psychadelic van, or a TV set from which I would broadcast my very own shows. Music, Performance & Art became my drugs. Began in the theatre at school & at a local Playhouse. All the meanwhile, attending Catholic School. Was never one for cliques, catholic school became hell. By the 8th grade, depression grew, I felt alone, & I tried to commit suicide. I sucked at it and didnt really want to die, I just wanted peace. Finally public High School! Freedom! People of different races & cultures (not just white like in Catholic School), boys, No Uniforms! (finally not looking like a nazi nation child), music, art... There were Hippies, Goths, Hicks, Preps, Nerds, locals sports legends, and more. I was my own thing, but excited by the various groups of people to choose from. High School was great, but still couldn't wait to escape the school system. So I tooke a few extra courses and skipped the 10th grade, graduated a year early. Auditioned for a touring singing/performing group, and moved to California. 4 Tours & 2 dinner theatres later, got married to a fellow performer. Began acting & working in Film/TV & taking Groundlings Improv classes. Stress of life, living young & poor & married in Cali, was too much, and the marriage dissolved. Became the lead singer of an established but troubled socal punk band. The group disbanded a few months later, but not without merit. The bass player of that band was future songwritting partner & FUJI MINX co-founder, John Fry. Fell in hard love and began writting and performing- the music that we wanted to make. Found Noel & Rob and found a family. I work everyday to become a better artist, musician, singer, performer, and person. Still poor. But better at it. Trying to make my dreams a reality and survive in a dying business...the music business. I don't copy CDs anymore b/c I'm on the shit side of that deal now. Only time will tell. I'm tired of hiding, I'm tired of tiptoe-ing across your fragile floor. Sometimes I get depressed & hate myself. Sometimes I'm Ok. Sometimes I'm euphoric & will do anything for the sake of Comedy (so I hope you have a sense of humor). Here I come, love me or hate me. I am not Gwen Stefani. I am not Madonna. I am not anyone, but me. Nothing's bitter, only getting better. xxx -Gv





Music

 


WWW.FUJIMINX.COM

I believe I am influenced by everything I've ever heard in one way or another. I listen to all kinds of music from Rock to Rap to Classical. I couldn't possibly name them all. But vocally, growing up I listened to alot of Motown!!! In additon if I had to pick a top 5, I'd have to pick Frddie Mercury, David Bowie, Elton John, Annie Lennox, & Steven Tyler as my main influences besides Motown.

Here is a list of everything I listen to...I know I missed some, but here it goes.

A lady was picking through the frozen turkeys at the grocery store, but couldn't find one big enough for her family. She asked the stock boy, 'Do these turkeys get any bigger?'

The stock boy answered, 'No ma'am, they're dead.'
