About Me

Rhianna’s Bio
By ME!
I’m extremely terrible at arranging my thoughts, and it’s taken me awhile to start to write a bio. So apologies for the next few paragraphs...
I’ve been singing Spice Girls with pretend microphones since I was seven, but never did anything other than that. My freshman year of high school, around new years, my aunt’s boyfriend taught the G chord on guitar and it’s all been downhill since then.
I first sang in front of people auditioning for a show at my school my sophomore year of high school, I loved it. The next week I was in Annapolis singing at my first open mic. That’s when I figured out, I wasn’t an athlete, or a math wiz, or cool. I just wanted to play music.
I started writing more and more, and wanted something to share with people I played for. That’s when I began recording when I was 16. I went to Recording Arts in Virginia, and with the help of Marco Delmar and of course my mama, I recorded seven of my original tunes. It was stressful, frustrating, but load of fun. The end product was “The Only Thing I Can Do”. With the help of cd baby, my cd is available on iTunes, Amazon, Napster, and a jillion other places.
My senior year of high school I started venturing out of local venues, and traveled to Virginia, Pennsylvania, New York, and Massachusetts, playing over 30 gigs. The summer before college was also so amazing. I was able to play in Utah and California, and meet some many amazing people.
Right now, I’m living in Boston and attending Northeastern U. I love it here. I’ve been influenced and sometimes playing with so many amazing, inspiring musicians. I just bought an electric guitar, and I’m extremely excited to write and change and then share my new music with you.
If you read this whole thing, sorry it didn’t make sense, and I love you.
