New Steemit member, Amélie Pradel (singer/songwriter)

Hi, everyone!

I’m so excited to be joining the Steemit community, discovering interesting blogs and meeting new people!!

My name is Amélie Pradel, but friends and family call me Ams. I have just turned 21 and have recently got my degree in ‘Popular Music Performance’. I originally come from France but I moved to the UK three years ago for my university studies. I will be starting my MA (Masters) in ‘Popular Music’ in October which I am looking forward to! At the moment, I am taking part as a volunteer, in a project called ‘Turtle Song’, which enables people who suffer from Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia to interact socially and artistically through music. I do believe music plays a massive part in our everyday lives to an extent we’re still unaware of.

My main interest and passion as you could have probably guessed, is Music. I started singing at the age of 2 and haven’t stopped since! I have had quite a few piano lessons and have taught myself how to play the guitar by watching Youtube videos. I am a singer/songwriter and I regularly busk in Chester. I also perform in local pubs every so often to gain experience and enhance my confidence. Some of my other interests include philosophy, poetry, drawing and photography.

If you would like to listen to some of the songs I cover to give you a little preview, you are welcome to visit my Instagram (@amsmusic_) and Twitter (@amspradel) page! I have also just released an EP of 7 songs that I have written and produced myself, and would be delighted if you gave it a listen! You can find 6 of these songs on all the big music platforms such as iTunes, AppleMusic, Spotify, Deezer, GooglePlay, Tidal and a few others! I like to stick to the Copyright policies and that is why the last song off the EP is on SoundCloud only, as I have used samples of speeches given by famous peace figures. I will definitely post about my album in one of my future blogs so stay posted!

I hope this gives you enough information to want to know more about me and my journey,
Thank you for your time,

Ams (@amsmusic)
