Top Ten With Alyssa Bernal
I’m inspired by: The other talented musicians I’ve met through YouTube.
I realized I wanted to play music when: I realized that I influence others.
Four songs you might find on my iPod: Anti Matter – N*E*R*D, Closer – Corinne Bailey Rae, Be Here Now – Ray LaMontagne, and Haunted – Taylor Swift.
One word I would use to describe myself: Humble
The best part of being a musician is: Performing and connecting with the audience.
Right now, I’m most excited about: This show I’m performing at tonight.
Something most people don’t know about me is: I was a competitive cheerleader for many years.
One of my happiest moments was: When Pharrell introduced me at his concert in Austin TX in front of thousands of people.
My music is: Groovy!
In ten years, I see myself: Settled in LA
