Who will perform at the Global Citizen Festival, appear in Rolling Stone, and take home $50,000?
Who or what is your musical inspiration?
I have many musical inspirations. In terms of production style, Tate Mcrae’s slower songs are my inspiration. Lyrically, Taylor Swift’s latest albums are my inspiration, I love the way she uses metaphors throughout her lyrics. Vocally, I’m inspired by Lizzy McAlpine, Lana Del Rey, Billie Eilish, Ella Fitzgerald, and a multitude of other strong female artists!
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
Performing at an large music festival such as the “Global Citizen Festival” would give me the ability to introduce my music to a larger audience, something I’ve had trouble with since I’m an independent artist!
What would you do with $50,000?
I would spend around $5,000 on promotion and marketing. I would create ads of my upcoming music on Instagram, TikTok, and other social media platforms, and to promote my music on billboards. I would spend around $15,000 on studio time, working with producers, recording, and possibly co-writing songs. I would spend $1,000 to $5,000 on cover art such as paying photographers. I would spend $5,000 creating music videos that I’ve wanted to make for years. The rest I would save for future music.
