I was just reading an article on female musicians and how society brought us up to be reactive instead of active which is why woman are primarily vocalists because we choose to build our lives on building relationships instead of building the things that make us stronger as artists…such as why guys will play guitar in their room and practice practice practice. as someone who has literally spent years practicing…alone in the car and in the shower…in front of mirrors and behind closed doors…I cringed reading this knowing I was so guilty of practicing less and putting other things in my life ahead of singing. every time my ex and I were drifting apart, the more I drove around singing along to Paramore and Brand New, wishing I had the guts to put my own writing to music and becoming a singer in an indie rock band.
Here time has gone by. I am a singer. I write about my emotions a lot instead of actively seeking therapy. I have a very emotional reactive view to everything still. I listen to music way more than I actively create it. I wait for others to listen. I wish we could play better shows but I am lost on how to make it actively happen.
Sigh. I don’t want to give in to female stereotypes or doing societal norms…but it sucks to realize I’m already doing that as a musician. I I I was tellin j and how women are just not welcome there and how happy I was my band stated from that typmusic yesterdaym

This song is for all of the people who have a hard time speaking their minds, who sometimes would rather be alone than surrounded by a crowd of people, and for all of the people who helped them come out of their shell or helped them feel that they are not alone.

DOES THIS WORK?!
Until it’s gone…
You’ve shown sudden interest
In trying to do this right
Well, your chance- you missed it
It’s too late to promise you’ll fight
Because I’m on my own
I’m on my own…
I was never your lifeblood
And you throw me off of my game
This is not what it once was
It’ll never be the same
No, no, no
If I’m the queen of forgiveness
You’re the king of forgotten souls
And will I regret this?
I don’t need a thing to feel whole
Because I’m on my own
And that’s all I’ve known
One of these days, I’ll be okay
Sorry If you like her but seriously… Kesha sings better than she does.
There’s about 20,000 other indie female singers that are much much better than Lana Del Rey- that can sing on pitch— that are actually INDIE artists, you know, unsigned or signed to independent labels. I’d like to see some people submit really good unsigned female singers to Tell All Your Friends inbox…
