1. What was your favorite part of the recording process? My favorite part of the recording process was the creativity. I love being able to go in the studio and let the creativity flow. It was awesome! It was amazing to watch the music I wrote come to life.
2. What was the most challenging part? The most challenging part was trying to fund the cost upfront to record in Nashville. Unfortunately, money doesn't grow on trees.
3. What was the first thing you did when you went to the studio? The first thing I did when I went to the studio was "I took my shoes off" lol. I don't like recording in shoes. :) I have an obsession with fuzzy toe socks..They are so comfortable :D
4. Which song on your CD did you enjoy writing the most? I had fun writing all of the ones I wrote/co-wrote. Off of the top of my head, I'd have to say "Notice Me" was fun for me to write. The day that I wrote that song...I had a friend tell me "she didn't believe in God and "she doesn't care what path He has for her, or if He even has a path". I decided to write that song from Gods point of view to her... and show her that if she ever takes the chance to "Notice" Him, things will be different. You'll have to listen to the song to see what I mean. :)
5. Which song are you most proud of vocally, and which song are you most proud of writing? Vocally, would have to be "Thats Me" I love the vocal range in that song. :) For writing.. I'd have to say "What About Me" It's a song that a lot of children and teens can relate to, and it means a lot to me as well.
6. Was there anything about the recording process that came as a total surprise for you? Honestly, the big surprise was seeing how fast the Nashville musicians can take a song that I wrote with just the guitar.. and turn it into something awesome! I guess that's the creativity. lol. All of the Nashville musicians that played on the record are sooo talented! :)
7. How can people order your CD? They can order them from my website. www.chelseamusick.com :) just click on store, and your ready to go! :D lol
8. Are you going to have a CD release party? Well, since the CD comes out 4 days before my 16th birthday... I think I'll just celebrate both together. lol :)
9. What are your plans for your music career for this summer? I hope to start playing shows as much as I can in and out of NJ. I want to travel and meet everyone that supports me. :D
10. Your 16th birthday is coming up, any special plans for that? I'm really not one for huge parties, so I think I'll just hang out for the day with my family. *Maybe write a few songs. lol. It might rain that day anyway..so thats a bummer. :/
