I A M Talks With
SAYA
What type of band/artist are
you?
Solo artist
Tell us the brief history of your
band.
I had a vision few years ago and
I decided to take action and
create as much as I could without thinking… I started to write
and improve my vocal skills. I’m
a clothes designer and a stylist
as well, I put it all together and
created Saya. At first it was very
personal, I had a great feedback
from the public and the industry. Then I started to perform in
events, clubs and showcases here
in Canada.
When did you start making
music?
I sing since childhood but I truly
started to take it more seriously 8
years ago, I had a classical vocal
teacher for many years, I had
bands and created Saya 4 years
ago.
How would you describe your
music for the public audience if
they never seen you before?
I’m an Electro-Pop singer, my
style is dark with catchy hooks
and a positive message.
Do you feel like you have
changed your style from since
you first started making music?
Absolutely! I wouldn’t say that I
have changed it but I improved a
lot, the style is now defined.
I’m a big fan of
80’s music! This is
my main influence
for the music, the
lyrics and the style.
I always stay up to
date on everything
that’s going on in
fashion!
How does music
affect you and the
world around you?
Music has changed
my life, it changed
me as a person as
well! I really had
to work hard on
my shyness, my
insecurities, my
doubts. I grew a
lot over the years,
I experienced a
lot of amazing things, met cool
people! It was quite a ride, we had
ups and downs but in the end it is
truly worth it.
Do you feel music is entering a
whole new generation?
I’d say yes but not in a good way
though… I feel very disconnected wi ????????????????????e?)?????????????????????????)?????$????????????????????????)????$???????Q????e?????????????)???????????????????????????)?????????????????????)??????????????????????)???????????????()]???e?????????????????????????????????????)]????????????????????)$??????????????????????????)?????????????????????)????????????e?????????????(??%??????????????5???????????????????????()?????????????????????????)?????????????????????????)???????????????Q???e????$)????????????????????????????)????????????????????????)]???????????????????????????)??????)A?????????????????????)?????????????$???????%??????)????????????????????????????)????????????????????????)????????????????????????)??????????????????????????)?????????????????????????????????????$??????????????)!??????????????????????)???????????)'?e????????????????????????????????????????$?????????)???????????$?????e??????????)????????'?e?????????????$?????((
