My Musical Start: I've been involved with music since the age of 6 years old. I was in numerous plays in church, school, etc. Always enjoyed singing and began to take it seriously once I hit high school. I picked up a guitar and started really playing in the winter/spring of '04-'05. From then on, I have been playing in praise bands and leading worship for youth/church congregations.
My Musical Influences: I would have to say that my biggest influence has to be my father, Gary Driskell. The way the he made music and how it flowed so beautifully and poetically opened my eyes. Along side my dad, Brian McKnight, Jason Mraz, Marty Sampson, Rascall Flats, Boyz II Men, Acappella, Bruce Dickerson, Michael Wheaton, Michael Jackson, Switchfoot, MAE, Anberlin.
Something Unique: I have the ability to take words and mix them up without even trying...it's called Dyslexia!!
Something Funny: I have the Obsessive Compulsive Disorder....in my closet. I cannot have my colored shirts all mixed together, they have to be groupled by colors, from the lightest to the darkest. I also have a HUGE obesession with shoes, more than the average teenage girl...and I once cried over the show "Tough Love"...ya..
