As a Kid I remember looking through the entire house just to find a cd player! I made songs in my head and had them memorised by the time the tune left my lips- or so I like to think I did.

My family would always encourage each other to sing and be expressive! Of course, always following the rules of what type of songs we could sing was necessary: i.e. no rap, hip hop, or dirty songs.

In Church, we would sing along in our section to the words above us on a screen; Christmas was very loud with all the hymns we knew; And, School was spent laughing, singing, and pretending we were the next Lady Gaga! It’s no wonder I fell in love with music!

Every day became one filled with rhythms and melodic poems stuck in my head, never seeming to be let out. Car rides, recess, every moment I had I dedicated it to music! And I am so very grateful that I had people encourage me along the way.

So… Here I am. I am Claire Victoria Risler; I am a Queer, Genderqueer Musician. My Genre is a mix of EDM, Alternative Pop, Indie, with a Cultural twist. My music is centered around the world as I see and believe it has become: I will speak of the wrongs the world has performed and the rights our people fight for.

If you ever need to scream to a song, I highly recommend either Phoenix by Fall out Boys, or Nightmare by Halsey. Listen to find your meaning of the song.
