It comes from my life experiences, observations, trials, hopes, and dreams.Ĭheryl B. I listened to a lot of jazz, thanks to my dad, and studied classical music growing up, and am currently really into the band XYZ (or whatever I’m listening to at the time).” I am the source of my own musical inspiration. When someone next asks me who influences my music the most, my answer will be “Me. Funny how it would become the source of hope during a time of unprecedented grief.Īnd, after years of struggling with an answer, I found it.
