Music has always been  her lifeblood and at times would drive her parents crazy, for she would never stop singing, she was a living radio.

In 1991  in addition to writing poetry and singing she picked up the violin.  coming from  a musically gifted father, she found that playing music came naturally to her.  She ended up playing this beautiful instrument for 14 years, in addition to 2 years of viola and 1 year on Cello.  But from her many years of playing she injured herself and ended up developing tendonitis in her left elbow and right shoulder.  This all came to the surface during her first year in college, as a  vocal major, when she was finally learning the piano, she had to drop out after  one semester and not play any instruments for 6 months.

Once she  was healed she began to teach herself piano.  She'd always wanted to learn it and instantly fell in love.  But it didn't always come easy to her.  The concept of singing while playing proved to be a tad tricky at times, but with anything that is challenging to her, she practiced until she persevered.

April has been writing music and poetry since she could put a pen to paper.  Her lyrics always come from a place that she knows, her life.  She has lived major ups and downs and all are reflected in her music. when she is in love she writes songs that could melt any man's heart, but when she's been hurt she writes lyrics that touch many deeply.  She admits she has made many mistakes, but if given the opportunity wouldn't change a thing from her past, for they all made her who she is today.  

"piano strings" is a great example of this.  A song about a horrible relationship, April jokes, "well at least i got a good song out of the whole thing".  She is shocked at how this song has really taken off.  With it's provocative lyrics and energetic piano she leaves nothing out.  It's all right there for us all.

No matter where life leads her, we can always rest on knowing she'll be singing about it in one way. 

when asked, what if you never get your heart broken again, she replies with, "no worries there, i have enough ammo to last a lifetime!"

April is currently hard at work on her album and singing at local venues and open mics whenever she can.  

Stay tuned, for this is just the beginning!
