New BLOG!!

Buenos dias! I got to perform at some pretty cool events last week, but I think my favorite thing was that I got to spend the week with my mom. The beginning of the week, I was in New York as you probably know. I got to sing at the Tennis US Open, and sang America the Beautiful. It was awesome having the marines unfurl the flag and seeing them! Just think it’s awesome to have all those men and women serving our country, and doing what they do. It was my first time going to watch a pro tennis match, and it was actually way cool! I went to a men’s semifinal and that was pretty exciting to watch.

Our next stop was in LA for the ALMA Awards! It was my first performance on an awards ceremony, and my first time performing on TV in Spanish! I have to say I was pretty stinkin’ nervous lol. It’s interesting actually because I was pretty nervous for both the US Open and the ALMA Awards. I think it’s good though because it gives you a little extra push sometimes. They make you want to do better, and also make it more memorable. So if you ever get nerves, don’t think that it’s a bad thing. They help you to keep working hard and improving yourself. I feel like when there are absolutely no feelings of being nervous, or I guess I should say there isn’t a desire to do well, you don’t motivate yourself to do your best and improve! You need to have some kind of motivation. But anyway, I had plenty of nerves over those performances lol. I sang Contigo en la Distancia, which is one of my favorite songs to sing so I’m really glad I got to sing it. I was so happy to be able to do it for all the Latin people too! I owe so much to the Hispanic culture since my mom and all of her family are Hispanic, and it’s definitely had a huge impact on the way I am. So I’m definitely planning on doing more in Spanish, and I hope this will allow more opportunities. So I need to thank the ALMA Awards for having come and perform, and it was really exciting to receive an award for new artist too!

So I’ve gotten to spend time at home after the performances, and now that I’m not having to rush with tour or finishing an album, I’ve been able to spend some more time with my family! I already had my mom come with me to New York and LA which rocked, but I went running with her twice! I haven’t gone running FOREVER! It feels sooooo good though! I neeeeed to do it more often. I’m tired of not having the pleasure and joy of running in my life lol. So I’ll be doing it more often. I try not to do it a whole lot when I need to sing a lot, because for some reason it wears my voice out. But things are pretty laid back now and I’ll mainly be trying to work on writing for the next album and just planning upcoming things, like the Christmas album release! I’m so excited, and nervous haha… for it to come out!! It’s coming out October 13th so I really am stoooked! I haven’t heard the final mixes of the songs yet lol, but I will get to soon!

All right, the last thing I’m going to tell you about is that I went to see the Utah Symphony last Saturday. It was pretty amazing actually! I really haven’t listened to a whole lot of that kind of music, but I was just so drawn into it. They are incredibly talented! It made me appreciate classical music so much more, and the emotion in the music is so moving. So I’d highly recommend that if you ever get the chance to go to a symphony… go! It’s worth it if you pay attention to the feeling in the music and the playing of the musicians! I really hope I can go again sometime soon. But anyway, that is all I have to say for today. I’m planning on going to Nashville pretty soon to start working with other writers, and I can’t wait! I don’t know the Nashville scene all that well so I just need to find some writers that I’d feel good working with and are willing to be patient in working with me lol. But I really am stoked! A lot of people think Nashville is just country, but there is a lot going on over there with all kinds of music with some really talented people. I’ll keep you posted though! But for now I shall talk to you later!

Song for the day: A Song Is Not A Business Plan -- The Rocket Summer This song is just so great about what it’s about haha. I wish I could write like you Bryce. If you haven’t listened to The Rocket Summer before you should listen to So Much Love before too!
