We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Cirice Adams. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Cirice below.
Alright, Cirice thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. What’s been the most meaningful project you’ve worked on?
The project I am currently working on is an album that shares a lot of personal struggles and trauma. Although last album, we may have spent 5 years making it, but this album feels like it actually means something and that it could amount to something if people heard it. There are themes on the album that talk about topics such as; depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, the daily life as a trans-woman, financial burdens, and just overall feeling like something is always about to go wrong. The instrumentation and production on this album has been a bit more stripped down as opposed to the previous album. This album has a lot of very raw and emotional moments. It is some of the most devastating music that I’ve heard in quite a while.
Cirice, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
I started making music back in 6th grade, circa 2013. Back then, all I knew how to play were a few open chords and some jazz chords. My lyrical themes then were mostly about breakups and lost relationships. Throughout the years, I would meet a few more musicians who I’d end up becoming best friends with and we all would eventually end up making music together. My band Scarlette Saturn was formed when I was in 8th grade, so around 2015-2016, and has been active ever since. We released our first album in 2020, and it was more of a prog-inspired album than anything else. We followed that with an experimental EP called Daydream Days which received a wondrous amount of praise from our audience and critics alike. This next album we’re working on will carry on the experimental pattern that Daydream Days started.
Apart from making music, I also teach music. I run an independent in-home private teaching buissness where I teach people all about music and how to play there instruments.
We’d love to hear a story of resilience from your journey.
Scarlette Saturn has been going strong for almost a decade now, and the fact that people still have no idea who we are is worrying. It’s something that has worried us all a lot this past year. But we remind ourselves that we make this music for reasons much more important than trying to get as many fans as possible, we make this music together because it’s genuinely fun and therapeutic. Although, having a massive audience would make our lives easier, but that’s not what the music is made for.
What can society do to ensure an environment that’s helpful to artists and creatives?
The average person tends to not think about the amount of influence they have over a local band’s reputation. Sharing is one of the most important things that a person can do to let people know, “hey, these people exist. check them out.” In a world where sharing information is as simple as a tap of a button, it’s crazy that more local acts continue to fly under the radar.
