About Me


*All songs written & produced by Mandy Ventrice

For the sake of those who actually read these little “about me” sections…
My story isn’t that much different than any other singer/songwriter/producer/starving artist; I eat, sleep, breathe and bleed for my passion of music and opted to skip college in order to have more time to chase after the [sometimes I think] impossible dream of being successful doing what I love.
I was born and raised near San Francisco, and started belting out those tunes at the age of two; granted most of it was gibberish. I started writing songs around the age of seven, thanks to the heavy influence of my dad who was also a musician. My parents divorced when I was a young buck, and by the time I turned fifteen, my mother and I re-located to Los Angeles. Shortly after, I joined a girl group and moved to Boston and spent my days rehearsing pelvic thrusts and singing bee-bop-bubblegum pop songs. And yes, I wore the midriff proudly.
After all of that turned stale, I went back to California to start anew. By the time my eighteenth birthday rolled around, I convinced myself it was absolutely necessary to move to New York all by myself to further pursue my career in music. After a lot of skipped meals, identity crisis’, distraction and indecisive behavior, here I am today…twenty-three and still kicking and screaming.
