the singer/songwriter

these are my favorite types of artists. the ones that put their feelings on the internet/radio/stage for an audience never knowing if anyone is listening or liking what they have to say but they take the risk and do it anyways. this singer/songwriter's name is Cady Groves she is an adorable twenty-year-old little lady with a bit of a country twang who i got to see at six flags today. we were all blown away by her personality and voice. so i hope that you will also give her a chance! she will be going back on tour after the bamboozle roadshow is over, so you can bet that i will be there, and i hope that YOU, whoever you are, will be there too!

this is part of her bio, it really shows who she is :)

I remember when I realized what I wanted to do in life. I was helping my mom clean out our swimming pool when an old Frank Sinatra song came on the radio. I remember saying, "Mom, I want to write things down that I have to say, and I want to sing them real loud so everyone can hear me." I was seven at the time. Ever since that moment, making music has continued to be my goal.

Writing has always been a constant escape for me. A lot of horrible things have happened in my life, and without the ability to write my feelings down and communicate them with a melody; they essentially would have blown up inside of me, for all I know.

...

Sometimes an entire song and melody will pop into my head at a gas station, or some place unexpected. I’ll press the record button on my phone and sing the whole thing right there so I won't forget it. It's such a privilege and much fun for me to write songs, and then have them actually be accepted by people. If I have one thing to say--I just want people to know they are not alone. I've made a lot of mistakes, and have experienced a lot of hurt. But the one thing I feel like you can do with pain, is make it your art. If you can turn it into something you can sing along to, the healing will come through that. To imagine one of my songs could change or help someone, or make them feel like someone understands them, makes this all just that much more amazing. It's not about me being a role model, and never will be. I'm part of the crowd. I just want to speak for the whole. We're in this together [http://workinggroupmgmt.com/artist.php?artist_id=13]
