Out of the four shows I had planned to attend in the month of April, I was most excited for the HIM concert at the Commodore Ballroom to see one of their openers, alternative rock band We Are The Fallen. You might know their lead singer: she goes by the name of Carly Smithson, and her claim to fame was being the one of the finalists on Season 7 of American Idol.

On April 13th, I attended Conan O’Brien‘s “Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television” Tour at the Orpheum Theatre (coincidentally where my high school commencement ceremony was held) in downtown Vancouver.

Throughout all of the celebrations and challenges I’ve encountered over these first few years of my adulthood, music has been my constant, leading me to life-changing discoveries, everlasting memories, and some of the best friends I’ve ever met. I’ve grown a lot as a person and learned more about who I am and what I strive to be. I’ve never felt more hopeful and confident towards life and what the future holds in store, and I owe it all to the gift of song. This blog is a tribute to the music and the artists that have helped me get to where I am today.

You’re going to hear a lot about a little show called American Idol, the platform from which I gained a whole new level of love and appreciation of music. There are four musicians from Season 7 of the show who have a rather big presence in my life. Allow me to introduce you to them…
