Music has always been a big part of Aiyana's life. She started playing keyboard when she was 6 and played flute in middle and high-school band and sang in choir in churches and at school. Aiyana discovered Tori Amos when she was 13 and became very inspired to be a better pianist and someday a song-writer too. Aiyana started taking music more seriously when she was 18 and decided to study piano in college. Aiyana earned a bacheclor's degree in music in 2004 from University of Central Florida in Orlando. Aiyana has been working as a professional musician ever since. She has played kayboard in several bands and has worked a classical accompanist to many different vocalists and instrumentalists. Aiyana realized her passion was really for creating music and enthusiastically started exploring that after she graduated college. For the past five years she has been songwriting and singing her own material. She independently released her first full length original album "Wreaking Honey" in 2008 and then made the move to L.A. Aiyana has also explored her talents in film scoring. Before moving to L.A. Aiyana scored a few short films and has done some composing for other short projects since being in L.A. Aiyana currently teaches private music lessons and plays local L.A. venues. She is also working on a new original music album "Queen of Roses" and plans to be touring this summer, 2010!!
