Each of us have
participated in audition choirs at both high school and college levels. We’ve
also had some voice lessons and we’re constantly practicing to improve our
voices.
First group project:
2007 when we recorded a couple of CD’s as Christmas presents for our friends
and family. In 2008, we formalized our group when we auditioned for “America’s
Got Talent” in San Diego. (For a complete timeline of important events, please
see this post).
We’re not connected
with any record label or marketing company. Everything we’ve accomplished to
this point has been done and paid for by us, with a lot of help from our wonderful
friends and family.
In the summer of
2013 we purchased a keyboard, microphone, sound mixer, and software so that we
could produce our own recordings. We also do our own music arrangements, photography,
costumes, marketing, editing, videos, social media, and etc., sometimes through
trades with friends and always with the encouragement of our amazing family.
Thank you for taking
the time to visit our Blog! We appreciate your support.
Sincerely, GaleSong
