An Introduction

Well hello there, inhabitants of the internet world. I'm Staci Marie Carriere, a singer, songwriter, musician, and resident dishcleaner (for you, Dad). Presented here is my very first blog. I'm quite excited. I love to write and express myself in various ways. In this blog, I will be talking about an array of subjects, from what's going on in my musical journey to what I had for breakfast this morning (a fruit shake).

Here is a picture:













I want one.

Anyways. Today is Sunday. Sunday is my favorite day. It's a day of relaxation and virtually doing nothing. Also, I planned a lesson today in church. I actually planned one. This is an accomplishment. A feat worthy of recognition. Now is the time to recognize my feat.

Thank you.

Yesterday, or maybe two days ago, I wrote a song. Los padres (I don't speak Spanish) helped me out. I had initially written a slow, melodic, haunting kind of tune using musicbox sounds on my nifty keyboard. But I was stuck in the rut of playing the same riff over and over (my piano skills are limited). Mom suddenly suggested going all Queen on it and transitioning from my musicbox beginning to an up-beat, piano-rock type deal. This is why I love collaboration -- I never would have thought of something like that! It turned out really quite awesomely. I can't wait to get back into the studio and work on some more stuff.

Owl City concert this Wednesday! I'm excited about that. I enjoy Adam Young. He's quite the lyricist. Lyrics are, to me, a very important -- if not crucial -- aspect to any song.

Oh dang. I've rambled enough.

But before I go, you have to listen to this one song!
It's called One More Drink by Enter the Haggis. I don't condone alcohol consumption, but the song is truly amazing. The fiddle is truly the most beast of all instruments.

All righty then.

Ciao!
