Tomorrow, I am headed to Chicago (which outside of spending some time getting lost in the airport there, this will be my first time to visit Chicago!). I love the city, so I'm sure I will fall in love with it! I am going to CD Baby's first ever DIY Musician's Conference! I am super excited! I am hoping to gather some inspiration while I'm gone! I will tell you guys all about it next Wednesday! <3 | Next week is my blog's 1 Year Anniversary! The time has gotten away from me this week. I have been working a bunch, and I had an 8 week class that started last week so school has been keeping me very busy as well, and I have been doing shows on the weekends which has been both rewarding and frustrating. So anyway, I don't have a long write-up for you today...Just a little up date! On my playlist lately: Mumford and Sons : Wilder Mind (The entire album has been keeping me all swoony and in love with music this last week!) My Songs for Movies Series list is up to five films! Here is the list so far: 1. You’ve Got Mail 2. Casablanca 3. Rainman 4. Blue Valentine 5. The Princess Bride If you would like to add something to the list, just let me know! I will start watching/writing songs for these movies very very soon! |

Last weekend, I did a concert window show. (If you don't know what that is...look above! This is a screenshot Richard Love captured for me! Concert Window is an online forum where musicians can perform from anywhere that has wifi and a computer! They are really fun easy shows to do!) Anyway, during my show last week, I did a spontaneous thing and asked whoever was watching to give me the name of their favorite movie, and I will write a song based on it. I have sense decided to extend that same invitation to you all. I'm going to limit it to only 10 movies for now. If this goes well, perhaps I will do another one of these! So, comment below, or comment on Facebook with your submission! I will take the first 8 that come through (because two spots have already been filled). It can be any genre, any style, any language. The only rule, is that it has to be one of your favorite movies. As I write the song for each movie, I will post a video of it for you all! This should be pretty fun! So, let's get started! So far, the list is this: 1. You've Got Mail 2. Casablanca UPCOMING EVENTS: Friday October 16, 2015 9:00 - 11:00pm New York Pizza and Pasta 217 West Boyd Norman, Oklahoma 73069 Saturday October 17, 2015 7:00 - 9:00pm Michelangelo's Coffee and Wine Bar 207 E Main St. Norman, Oklahoma 73069 It has been awhile since I have posted a cover! I'm really excited to share this one with you. It was a fun one to learn. This is my cover of Kenny Loggins's 1971 "Danny's Song." I hope you all enjoy it! I guess this would be cover 6 of 12 for the 52 Project! UPCOMING EVENTS:
Friday October 9, 2015 Online Concert 7:00 pm CST https://www.concertwindow.com/75795-sierra-rose This is one of the few upbeat songs I have written in all my years of writing songs. (It is also a product of The 52 Project!) I hope it speaks to you, and reminds you that everything is going to be alright, just fine. Let me know what you think of the song in the comment section below! I would love to hear your input! Alright

(During the last couple of weeks, these yellow wild flowers have popped up along the side of the road. Today, I finally got a chance to take some home with me. <3) | This week has been very busy and very wonderful. My fiance has been in town since last Wednesday, and let me tell you...there is nothing sweeter than being with the person you love...IN PERSON! Soon, this will be our everyday life, this eating-too-much, picking-wild-flowers, watching-movies-until-we-fall-asleep, laughing-until-we-can't-breath thing and I cannot wait! I am the luckiest lady in all the world! Anyway, I wanted to take a moment to mention that today is the first day of Fall! (Which, if you're in Oklahoma, you may not believe because it's still in the 80's). You all know that I love new beginnings, fresh starts, starting over, renewing, and revitalizing, and for me, that's what a new season brings. I am about half-way through this semester of college, and I don't know about you, but I need to remember to breath deep sometimes. I love being busy and having a ton of things that I'm doing, but the balancing act can be challenging...especially if you forget to let yourself hunt for wildflowers, and eat some ice cream at the Fair. I've been in a kind of lull with my music lately, but falling in love with wildflowers on the side of the road makes me fall in love with music all over again. This world can be really beautiful if you let it. |
Next week, I will have a video for you of my new song "Alright."
It's one of the first upbeat songs I have written in awhile, so I'm excited to share it with you!!

“Before You Realize”
Written by Sierra Rose
Verse 1:
The plane ride reading those words through teary eyes
I miss you. You’re the love of my life.
And I know that this ache will subside
And I know that things will find their time
Chorus:
Because, I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be back before you realize
That some days some days some days are hard
Oh, I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be back before you realize
That sometimes memories are home
Home
Verse 2:
Holding you one last time for awhile
Leaving is rough and I hate these miles
And we know that it is worth it
But we know that we’ll get through this
Chorus:
Because, I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be back before you realize
That some days some days some days are hard
Oh, I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be back before you realize
That sometimes memories are home
Home
Bridge:
I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be back before you go
I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be back home
Ohhhh
Chorus:
Because, I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be back before you realize
That some days some days some days are hard
Oh, I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be back before you realize
That sometimes memories are home
Home

I hope you all are enjoying the new pictures on my website and Facebook page! Check my Facebook page periodically, because I will be posting some more pictures from the photo shoot in the next few weeks! I am really excited to have the chance to revamp everything (new beginnings and all that). The timing of it actually works out quite well though, because this post is dedicated to the two years I have spent performing my music in front of live audiences. It is time for a new beginning! It has been an interesting journey, and I think it is always nice to look back and take stock of how far you've come. So naturally, I have a list for you guys today! Here are some things I have learned these last two years of performing :
1. One of the biggest things I have learned is how to tune everything else out and focus solely on what I am singing/playing. The other night, I did a gig at Michelangelo's and I was playing to a mostly empty room (which I will discuss a bit later) but these two women came and sat on the couch three feet away from me. The thing was though....they weren't sitting there to listen to me play. They sat through most of my set and talked to each other pretty much the whole time. If I hadn't learned to focus on my music despite what is going on around me, that might have really thrown me off! But it didn't! And I think that is one thing that experience can teach you that practice can't.
2. This is a big one : Support other musicians!! I cannot say this enough! Being a musician can be a really lonely, difficult thing, and it is so easy to get discouraged. The times that I have had other musicians come up to me and tell me that I'm doing a good job and to keep doing what I'm doing...those are the things that keep me going. And on top of all of this, as a woman in this industry, I especially believe in supporting other women who are in this industry. I refuse to let this world tell me to tear down my fellow ladies!
3. Playing to an empty room is not glamorous, but it sure will teach you something about yourself. I cannot count how many times I have played to mostly empty rooms. Let me tell you, it is a rough gig. (especially when you aren't even getting paid for it). However, some of my best "practice" sessions have been behind the microphone in a nearly abandoned coffee shop. No matter how much you may want to give up and say "Well, no one is listening anyway! What's the point?!" You have to see it through. Actually, that is something that I learned on my very first "gig" playing on the street in Guthrie two years ago. No one was really walking by me, and so I stopped playing for awhile. Then, these two guys came up and I played for them. One of them was kind of giving me a hard time and saying "if you play, people might walk by and listen...but if they don't know you're here to play, then how can you expect them to come?" It was a little hard to hear then, being that I was so new to performing and so easily wounded by strangers words, even if they were meant in good faith. But now, it makes all the sense in the world. If you don't play at all, no one knows what they are missing. So play play play play your little heart out!

Everything But The Sky
By Sierra Rose
Every day, I find another piece of you
That you left behind, and will be missing soon.
They are piling up, and I'm running out of room.
So, my heart stops and plays this old tune
Oh, everything but the sky is blue
Oh, every place is tainted with missing you
Oh
One of these days, I'll give back the pieces I found.
So you can replace all these rain clouds,
That have been crowding around and drowning me out.
And my heart will stop playing this old tune
Oh, everything but the sky is blue
Oh, every place is tainted with missing you
Oh
Oh, everything but the sky is blue
Oh, every place is tainted with missing you
Oh

Things have kind of gotten away from me in regards to The 52 Project. I hate having to admit that! But life happens, and I have come to the conclusion that my only two options from here are either 1. To give up on The 52 Project completely. Maybe try it again next year? OR 2. Restructure The 52 Project so that I can finish strong (even if it is after the original due date). For the simple fact that quitting would leave a permanent bad taste in my mouth, I am going with option two. Soooo....what does that mean exactly?
Well, basically I have decided to kind of just pick up where I left off, and end sometime in April of 2016. It is much later than I had anticipated, but I will get done. I will finish this project! It will most definitely be more difficult than it has been before.This semester is going to be really busy for me. I am starting my first week of work at Starbucks today, and I know that having a day job is going to complicate some things for my music. I also know that I am very stubborn and I refuse to give up. So, this week, I am reestablishing The 52 Project into my weekly life. So, you can expect more music, more covers, more videos, more gigs, more of pretty much everything. I'm ready for this lull to be over. I have been kind of in a slump musically...and I'm done with it. Sometimes, you just have to pull yourself out of the depths of your slumpiest slump because waiting for it to end naturally could keep you waiting forever.
Next week, you can expect a video of one of my favorite songs that I've written. And for the rest of September, you can expect at least one gig every weekend. So, stay tuned, and I will see you all soon!
Thanks for reading!

I wrote this song a few months ago when I was really struggling to find the motivation to keep up with school work, and my music, and everything else in my life. I just got overwhelmed, and I wasn’t really sure what my next step should be…but I wrote this song as a reminder to myself (and to everyone else) that even when you aren’t sure where you are headed, things will turn out okay. You will get through this semester, this season, this week, this day. I am started my second year of college this week, and I wanted to start this semester with that reminder. I think it’s important to keep perspective when you are heading into a new chapter, a new challenge. So, I hope you guys enjoy this song, and that it can help serve as a reminder that things will be alright. You will get through this!
"And Be Better For It"
By Sierra Rose
I'm living the life I said I wanted
I'm caught in a landslide of moving in slow motion
No one ever tells you that it's hard till your broken
They repeat the phrase that "the world's wide open"
So, Baby come in close and let me tell you,
It's only a season you're going through.
Even if you don't know where you're headed,
You'll survive and be better for it
I'm driving the car but the road just keeps growing
It's a lot of stop and keep on going
The road just keeps turning till you lost all direction
The signs they help but only if you read them
So, Baby come in close and let me tell you,
It's only a season you're going through.
Even if you don't know where you're headed,
You'll survive and be better for it.

Getting back into the swing of things is always a little weird. Last night was my first night back at SWAN since I have been home. I can’t tell you how nice it was to be around musicians who love to write music simply because they love to write music. I think it really makes a difference in how I think about my own music. I am challenged and inspired by being around other passionate musicians/songwriters. It is quite refreshing actually. I also was able to run sound a little bit last night. That was the first time in a couple months that I have been behind a sound board. I am really happy to report that it is still something that makes me happy. Running sound is still something that I absolutely love. (That is a really nice reminder to have since I go back to school for that in a couple of weeks!)
This week has held some pretty exciting things so far. On Monday, my fiance and I put a temporary hold on our wedding venue! We have been slowly planning our wedding pretty much since the moment we met! hah! It is so exciting to be actually making steps towards the big day though! These last few weeks, we have been nailing down some of the little details of what we want. It is so surreal most of the time. All I can say is that I hope everyone gets to marry their best friend. I know I am, and nothing has ever felt so sweet!
Another incredible thing that happened on Monday is that I had my first actual job interview. I have been very blessed to be able to focus solely on my music and school up until this point, but it was only a matter of time before I had to get a day job. I applied a few different places, but the only one that got back to me was Starbucks. Now, if you know anything about me at all, you know that I count coffee as one of my main food groups….so really what could be better?? Anyway, I had the interview and I was nervous and awkward, but an hour later I got a call saying that they wanted to hire me! I will probably be starting in the next couple weeks. I am really excited about it! Don’t worry though, I will still be doing gigs on the weekends (check my events section on my Facebook page for more details) and will continue posting weekly blog updates.
Lastly, Monday after my job interview, I went to Atomic Lotus and scheduled my tattoo appointment for next week! I am so beyond excited about it! I have wanted this lavender bundle tattoo for months now…and everything finally fell into place for it! You can expect pictures and the story behind it next Wednesday!
Anyway, that’s my life lately. I hope you all have a lovely week!

I’ve always known that the entertainment industry is a hard place to be. I grew up mentally preparing myself for the hardships I knew were bound to come because this is the direction my life was being called in. I knew that…and even so, when hardships do come (and lately they have been coming in hoards stampeding around me) it is always difficult to keep perspective. It is hard to preserver at times such as these. I guess if it were easy we wouldn’t need words like ‘preserver,’ would we?
For me, being a working musician right now is more about fighting my own doubts than it is even fighting other people’s doubts. It means taking any and every hit that is thrown at me, and using it in a positive way. It means not being consumed by the “no’s” but being thankful for the “yes’s.” It means knowing my limits and taking a step back when I have reached them…but it also means pushing myself harder sometimes so I don’t stay stagnant. It means feeling things…which is not always fun, but it sure does make a sunset that much more beautiful. I’m not really sure what the next step is, or what the big picture looks like. I have no idea where my music is going to take me. What I do know is that it doesn’t matter. I don’t need to know the big-picture-end-game plan. I just need to trust that God has me here for a reason. I need to trust that there actually is a big-picture-end-game plan.
And I guess everything else can just fade away.

Today, I’m writing you all from an airport in Phoenix, Arizona. My summer stay in Pennsylvania has officially ended, and I can’t tell you how sad I am to be saying that. There is never a good enough way to prepare to say goodbye to loved ones. Nothing is ever sufficient to sooth the ache that comes with distance. So I’m here, in a strange airport on a three hour lay over and I’m trying to make sense of it all. I’m trying to figure out how I proceed from here.
This summer has taught me a great deal about myself. I have been challenged, and at the same time these last two months have served as a much needed vacation from my ever-present tendency to stress myself out over little things. I feel like this was the first time in a very long time that I have had a chance to catch my breath. (And not just catch my breath…but continue breathing. In. Out. In. Out. It’s starting to feel normal now.) This summer has only strengthened my love for the man I will marry. It has revitalized my relationship with my sister. And these last few days, as I have been setting up gigs for when I come back to Oklahoma, it has renewed my passion for music and acting.
I have some catching up to do on the 52 Project. It’s been incredibly hard to keep it up this summer. I eventually got to a point where I had to allow myself to take a small hiatus from it. But I’m coming back to it, and I’m determined as ever to finish strong. Time is such a fickle thing, and I think sometimes I get so caught up in the goal setting/crossing things off a list/self-induced pressure of this industry that I lose sight of the fact that this is something that makes me happy. In all the legality of my own made-up rules, I sometimes stifle the passion.
I have a lot of upcoming gigs, festivals, and events though. So, please keep checking my Facebook page for more details. I am also planning some Concert Window shows in the next few weeks.
I will see you all next week. Thanks for your patience.
