Get my banner code or design your own banner------------------WE FORGET, BY S. REX (ROOM 5, LA)-------------------------------------------CONVINCE ME, BY S REX (MICKY’S BLUE ROOM)----------------------------------------------Well, my name is Samantha Rex! I love music, i love to sing and write songs, i have a bio, but hey why not just say straight from my heart what i’ve done and how much i love music and singing, Ive been developing my sound and really finding myself as an artist, I have to get with the right producers! I am a singer/songwriter but if i like other songs i am down to jam it! All the songs on my page i wrote, i write all the time and i am proud to say i am a damn happy person creating my world. I am from Albuquerque NM, but moved to NYC seven years ago as a tiny teen! It was a bold move, I come from pretty much nothing and saved my money worked my but off and drove out to NYC with a demo in one hand and a suitcase in the other, it took four days sleeping in the car to drive out there (my best friend at the time came along). One week i thought, then go broke go home, but you know what 1 week turned to 1 month then a year and doing it all by myself thank you (ha ha)! I model here in NYC and now in LA too, to make money (pretty successful at it too) but my passion is singing and writing, I hate when people say well if your a real artist you cant be a model...WELL I AM, and I love it all... I’m grateful for the chance to have a job flexible enough to spend a lot of time on my music. After 2 years in NY i got signed to Universal records in Germany, I was the lead singer of this girl group in europe called "Heaven sent" for 3 years, it was nuts we had a top ten hit and went on tour, 2 released music videos, that still play out there today! I left the group to focus more on writing my own songs..which to me is more important than MONEY!! I learned so much about the music business and how shitty it can be, you have a hit on the radio, doing tours but you can’t pay your rent! I left the group because it just wasnt where my heart was at. Now I sing around the New York City at small venues, and just did my first show in LA, I’m writing my own music and growing as an artist, its real inspiring to see other artists doing it the way you do too, and if you can make it in NYC you can make it anywhere......wait, well maybe not some places..but its for sure a big deal..ha ha. I love my family they are the most important people in my life, we all live in different areas and least a 5 hour flight away, but we are tight! Life is a great journey enjoy the ride cause its so draining to be stressed all the time (i know it)..so easy to find a small piece of happiness. hold on to those! hope you like my music.
