The potential that I have is enough to quit anything else but not my long term music and acting dream. With the interviews I have had so far about my music journey is an enlightenment which has paved way to the ideology of the press and all sorts of media perspective towards artists. In all interviews I characterize myself primarily as a performer and a songwriter, “Literally, I collate all my inspirations from Past and Present experiences, general day life of the people around me which is relatable. Sometimes it all depends on the mood that am in then I compose the lyrics. However, the fact that am a writer has played a major role in my music writing skills and I put a lot of work into improving my voice. Like people say, you got to do what you have to do in-order to make it in life, achievers don’t quit and am still on the journey of making my mark.http://www.facebook.com/

Exposed Vocals: So tell us your story. Where did you grow up? What made you decide to become an artist?
Alice Ciara: Alice is a Musician, Songwriter, Tv personality and an actress born 4th March 1993. I have lived in quite a number of countries since my childhood. However, the real journey to my success was when I moved to Australia in 2010 to pursue my RnB & Pop music and acting career while studying. I am an Imaginative Writer,Sensitive Actress and an Intuitive Entertainer. As my success continues to build, it’s My music and Movies that does the talking. My music may be a little non-traditional, but I wear it like a glove. My music journey was mounded in school through my initiative attendance in secular choirs where we held trophy competitions. I used to listen and sing to Back Street Boys Music, West-life and Celine-Dion music during my childhood. I could write down my compositions and slowly the desire for music became stronger, I engaged in Music activities everytime due to my music passion.
I remember clearly the first time that I ever performed before an audience on my own without a choir I was 14years old when I joined the Rotary international interact club way back in school auditioning for talent search, when it was my turn to showcase I remember presenting a West Life song Soledad before the members and everybody enjoyed my act. Since then I was given the post of Vice President for the club and also the entertainment prefect post. Believe me when I say that I was really a popular kid way back. So I guess the real journey to my career started from school vocal training activities and slowly different people could motivate and advised me to become an entertainer and an artist because they could see the a great music potential in me when I grow up So I guess it worked and here I am pursuing my long term dream.
