Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Becky Raisman. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Becky, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today We’d love to hear about a project that you’ve worked on that’s meant a lot to you.
I’ve released two singles “Summertime Sugar’ and ‘Hyptonized”, released two EPs This Is My Moment and Cruising. As of this moment I’m working on my 3rd EP Warrior soon to be released at the end of the year. I’m in a rock band with School of Rock in Mount Pleasant, SC they opened this year, I went to an open house grand opening and the owner Matt McFarland told me the adult band didn’t have a vocalist so I signed up right then and there. We had our first show in April.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
