Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Dark Nature

My name is Chelsea Edmundson and I'm a singer/songwriter. I didn't really start becoming confident in my voice, apart from school choir, until I was about sixteen and I was at my friend Katelyn's house and my friend Travis Myatt called me on the phone and he said, "I have this guy with me that I want you to meet and we're coming over right now and you're going to sing for him!" I protested, he hung up one me and I knew that he was coming. And I was damn scared, which is hard to believe now because now I'll pretty much sing for anyone but not back then-- Travis was one of the only people that even knew I sang. So, him and this guy named Ben Paynter came over and they put in a song that they were working on that they thought I could sing the female part (It was "Mouthful of Cavities by Blind Melon") So I listened to it, sang a bit of it, and ended up singing and writing music with these guys for nearly two years. I'm now becoming a solo artist because I moved away to go to college, definately too far to be a band anymore, and I haven't found anyone that I enjoy writing with as much as Ben and Travis. So I started to pluck around and learn guitar a bit and write my own stuff which I really hope people like. The lyrics to my songs are basically just about my life and so they are about everyone's life becuase I'm not pretentious enough to think that I have gone through anything that others have not. I focus a lot on lyrics when I write and just the gut feeling of the song because I don't know anything else to do. Besides, writing music I also like to dance and act and have done some musical theater as well as strait theater. I'm very close to my family and I'm very thankful for them and the true friends that I have been blessed with who support my me with music a lot. Please feel free to contact me regarding music or just anything :) Josh Weston recorded the first three songs that will be on my MySpace, Travis Myatt is responsible for the sweet, bluesy solos in "All Out", and Brad Anspach has taken all of the photographs of me that are on my MySpace and all of his photographs can be viewed on Flickr.com
