   About Janey Snyder

My real name is Diana, I'm Italian and I was born on June 29th, 1988.

I'm absolutely not down-to-earth; I read a lot, write a lot, plan all sorts of things. Moreover, I always feel like I'm on the run which is perfectly exemplified by a ton of stressful dreams where unknown people keep on hunting me for no apparent reason. I usually manage to escape by athleticly jumping down from third floor balconies.


I've been playing piano since I was 5 and I've studied it for almost fourteen years; I've attended the Conservatory receiving a lot of pretty useless diplomas such as solfeggio, music history and harmony, then I understood that I really didn't care about classical music and stuff like that so I left the Conservatory.


Then I totally fell in love with folk music.


I'm currently trying to learn guitar and I'm obsessed with songwriting. I tried several times to establish a band but most of my musician friends listen to mainstream or metal music, so it never worked. I tried everything I could think about to gather people to play with but unsuccesfully. So, while I wait for better times, I keep on writing.


I adore literature and, a few years ago, I would have told you that I wanted to be a writer. I keep on planning and plotting a lot of stories anyway.


I guess I'm not patriotic at all - on the contrary, I always long to be elsewhere. Junot Dìaz wrote of this state of mind like a sort of New Jersey desease so I started thinking that's one of the reasons I feel perfectly confortable into Bruce Springsteen songs.


I'm currently studying at the Catania University. It's a hard work but the University cannot survive without students, so someone has to sacrifice itself. However, it's not something I'm proud of.


I dislike smoking and reality shows. I love cappuccinos, woods and gloves. I really love to drink water, so I guess that in my past life I was a kind of fish, maybe an orca or something like that.


I guess I could be a good buddhist.


Please, notice that all the songs I uploaded here are home-recorded so the quality is not as high as it ought to be. I hope you can enjoy them anyway.

Ciao Diana!:)
Piacere di trovarti anche qui^^
Appena ti ascolto di nuovo ti dico meglio, ma come ti dicevo ho avuto modo di ascoltare qualche brano qualche tempo fa e mi ha lasciato una buonissima impressione, stile interessante e non omologato agli stereotipi odierni, capacità di comporre...insomma complimenti! Non solo talento poetico! Anche io adoro il mondo della musica e ho sempre amato cantare -ma non l'ho mai fatto a livello serio- (prima o poi spero di prendere delle lezioni di canto...ne ho proprio bisogno!), ma purtroppo non ho mai suonato seriamente uno strumento e comporre per me è sempre stato un mistero. Adoro il pianoforte *_*
Passa pure da me quando vuoi^_^
A presto, buona serata!
Francesco
