ABOUT ME:
"I cannot remember my first memory of musical indulgence *laughs* my father is a deejay and promoter and my mother's brothers were in a music band so it is definitely running through my veins. I can't comprehend a day without music, whether it's singing, dancing or listening, I find it unrestricting and powerful. If other people can enjoy or be moved by something I've helped create then that brings a smile to my face." In High School, Syeshia Sweeney was known for her numerous contributions to the annual Talent Shows the school held. A keen and strong performer of song, dance and drama, she didn't attend a stage school and it is still fair to label her a 'raw talent'. Hailing from Kensal Rise/Queens Park in North West London, Syeshia is a result of a good wholesome and multi-cultural (Black Jamaican and Anglo Indian) background. Respectful, charming and mature beyond her years, she is an asset to her parents, Chris Sweeney (Long serving DJ, Promoter and owner of flagship store Westend DJ off Tott Ct Rd) and her Mum Joan, who she owes her creative flare and shopping addiction to. Her elder brother Richie F (New Winner Roadshow & Unique 101.2 FM) is alsoon his way up the industry ladder, being one of the only young deejays of his age to boast a record collection and the skills to compete with some of the connoisseurs of the business. Her elder sister Lerease, with her Degree in Music Marketing & Management acts as Syeshia Sweeney's management and is always on call to lend a helping hand, whatever the situation.So How Did It All Start? "Everyone says to me, 'Ohhh Syeshia I didn't know you could sing!' And my respone is always, 'Ahh Well neither did I!' But seriously, I always knew I had a voice but had never had the opportunity or the confidence I guess to get into the recording studio. When the opportunity did arise, Kyle James (producer of Chipmunk/Louick Essien 'Beast') put me in the booth and told me to 'Bring it Home' so that's what we did! 'Find My Way Home' was the debut and believe me, hearing my voice back for the first time I was farrr from impressed but it really did well with the public, I mean it's still everyone's favourite! It's all very exciting but it's important for me to always remain humble.'Syeshia Sweeney is an individual of many talents and with the help of her family, friends and all of you who are supporting her, we hope to continue to watch her grow. We eagerly anticipate more of her infectious tunes and genuinely mesmerizing personality as her journey unfolds.RANDOM SHOTS:
MY MUSIC:
Syeshia Sweeney's music is essentially R'n'B, however growing up with influences of reggae and soul, these undertones have affected her style and unique sound. Like most female vocalists, Syeshia began singing in Gospel choirs and listening to the greats Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston and Patte La Belle as well as Mary J Blige, Lauryn Hill and Aaliyah. After completing 'Find My Way Home' and 'Come See Me' with Kyle James (Chipmunk/Louick Essien - Beast), 'Better at Home (Puppy Show)' with Kulan (also works with Gappy Ranks) and with Tri (upcoming Producer and Artist, Tri Umbrella/Korporation), Syeshia has had radio and club play and had her music circulated on mixed CDs.What's next? Her debut Music Video and of course, a lot more material. 2009 is set to be a great year for her. Syeshia is keen to take full credit for writing all her own lyrics, usually making the use of experiences and situations of those around her but insists that some more personal words are on their way. Listening back to the music she has completed, Syeshia claims"This is definitely just the beginning, I haven't touched on all the genres I would like to delve into just yet. I don't always want to give people what they expect of me and I am itching to do a really soulful jam and a Funky House club track, I can't wait!! I am a very creative person, music is not my only passion, I come alive when I write, act and dance, but this is what I am focused on right now so you will just have to wait and see what I will do next!"MY MANAGEMENT:
