Let's Get To Know Nathalie Miranda

1- Where did you grow up?

I grew up in north London, and I'm still there! 2- What is one of the first songs you remember liking as a kid?

Oh wow, there are so many! Well, I think it may have been something by Prince or Guns n Roses, as I spent a lot of time with my older cousin growing up, and his musical taste definitely influenced me.

3- What influenced you to get into music?

Music has always been part of my life. My grandfather was a violinist and my mum always played her favorite music around the house when I was growing up. I guess it was a natural evolution, being surrounded by music literally since the day I was born. I also remember watching my favorite singers on TV and thinking that I wanted to be on stage just like them entertaining people.

4- At what age did you start playing/singing?

I started playing the piano when I was 5, and completed all my classical grades. Singing was a much later thing for me due to my being incredibly shy. I didn't sing in public until I was 15 when I was at a karaoke night on holiday, and it took a lot for me to get up there... but I honestly think that if I never did get up, I wouldn't have had the confidence after that to pursue music professionally.

5- If you could go back in time, what advice would you give to yourself after finishing school?

I would tell myself to have more confidence and stop being scared of the world! Be brave and follow your heart. 6- What are some of your favorite songs at the moment?

I have very retro tastes in music so this is a tough question! I do like some of Billie Eilish's songs, and I love Rival Sons. So I guess them! 7- Do you listen to your own music?
