“Most people die with their music still locked up inside them.”
― Benjamin Disraeli
When I was young my greatest wish and subsequent prayer every Sunday was asking God to let me become a singer when I grew up. I was extremely shy and my fear was always present. My fear of not being good enough kept me from even trying. One day I projected myself in the future and realized I didn’t want to look back one day and say to myself, “I wonder what would have happened if I gave it a shot?”
Suddenly this image of me in a rocker looking back at my life was not where I wanted to be. The last thing I wanted was to wonder or worse, regret not having even tried. There is nothing sadder than a life with regrets. So I found a teacher. The teacher put me in a student show. Me = terrified. The loudest critical voice expressing herself all day. With nonsense like “You are too old. Normal people don’t decide to be musicians in life, etc.” You get the idea. Then I stepped out onto the stage. The lights, the warmth, the pianist began playing and there was no looking back. My life was changed forever.
Tomorrow Marc and I go into the studio to record our first Bianca Basso album. (yes pictures will be posted I promise!) It has been nearly two and a half years to get here. What we do together is something we always wanted to find in this life. I am the Lennon to his McCartney. We found the key, unlocked the door and the music just keeps coming. Your turn. Unlock your music and live from this day forward!
Namaste!
Bianca
