Interview with Jasmine

Band Name

Jasmine

What first got you into music ?

I felt the need to express my feelings somehow so I started writing songs

Who Inspired you to create music ?

My mom is a very musical person, she has also made her own songs and was always playing the piano at home so I looked up to her and wanted to get into music myself. 

What kind of music do you make?

Pop music has always been my favourite genre and I think my music falls into that category as well. 

What is your creative process like?

Sometimes I just get a new melody in my head and come up with suitable lyrics to go with it. Usually I’ve already had the idea of the next song I wanna make, and when the melody hits me the lyrics come to me naturally. 

Who would you most like to collaborate with?

I want to make a song with my husband Cody! He featured in one of my earlier songs and we had a lot of fun doing that together. 

If you could go to an open show by any artist who would it be?

Seeing Taylor Swift live would be amazing.

What is one message you would give to your fans ?

Don’t be afraid to go after your dreams
