FOCK Posted 11 hours ago Posted 11 hours ago Classics on classics. Here's a bit of background on why she chose to step out of the limelight & what she's been up to: As far back as I can recall, I have been creating: singing, dancing, telling stories, playing make-believe and conjuring up other worlds. I did it all. My home was filled with music and I spent Sundays singing in church, so naturally singing became my thing. To sing was to feel my imagination and my body merge. It was the space where I was truly at home with myself. Then, right around the time I started wearing a bra, I was offered a record deal. In that moment there was no decision to make. My internal world was big and wild and the idea of stepping into the adventure of being a singer felt only natural. Now, in hindsight, I see that it was a bit more jarring to my creative core than I could have predicted. Anyway, I toured the world and sold a lot of albums. I was nominated for a Grammy and even got some plaques for the wall--which I always hid in the closet because I had felt like a fraud. I was singing music that wasnʼt my own, wearing clothes made by designers I had never heard of, speaking with authority about things that I had not yet lived, and publicly playing nice with people who were devouring me. Honestly...it was scary. I could feel the joy of music draining out of me. It felt like a hundred people had dragged their chairs into my magical creative room and sat down with suggestions. And lets be honest--they were all dudes. Every bit of this magical creative space was taken leaving no room for me. By the time I was in my early 20s I literally did not know the sound of my own voice. My anxiety and depression had swallowed me. On January 1, 2008 I told the label that I was done. People have often said I made the brave choice. Trust me, it wasnʼt bravery. It was survival. What followed was a pretty epic identity crisis. To give you a glimpse: I smoked a pack a day, cruising around in my Hummer, meanwhile working as a newly-certified pilates instructor planning my move to Africa. More
