San Diego native singer/songwriter Stasia Conger began playing music young, at four she was a devout pianist and loved to delight just about anyone with her voice. At 11 years old, she picked up the guitar. Teaching herself the basics, she began writing her own songs which she played for friends and family adamantly.
By 16, Stasia recorded her first acoustic compilation disc Meant Only for You. A year later, CD number two, Picture was recorded with 11 songs by a full band, put together solely for the album. She was very involved in playing at church and continued developing her skills in songwriting and began vocal lessons to help mature her voice. The summer after high school, Stasia released her third compilation, Sweet, Sweet Music, a seven song EP.
By winter 2005 she was playing regularly in local San Diego coffee shops and venues. In August of 2006, Stasia and her family went on a trip to Kauai that turned out to be the kick-start to a more promising career. While on Kauai she attended the Kauai Music Festival. The festival held a songwriting competition, so Stasia entered her songs "Our Story's Got No End", which won and tied in first place with Kauai native, David Tamaoka.
Staff at the Kauai Music Festival introduced Stasia to Andrew Williams, a platinum-selling songwriter/musician/producer/arranger/engineer and the producer of her up and coming demo Adventure Me.
Four songs are completed so far on her new demo, and a couple more are in the works. She currently books venues with Jon Estep (as a duet act with Stasia) and Beacon Tree, two talents originating from the islands.
Stasia's other successes include a placement in CBS' show "Moonlight" in April 2008, and she is looking forward to some potential music placements on MTV and Lifetime this summer and fall of '08. End of July 2008 she also re-claimed her status at the Kauai Music Festival as the first place winner of the songwriting competition with her song "Smiling Down," making her the only two-time first place winner of the festival.
For now she says she will continue to pursue her music as an artist and writer. Stasia has performed with a variety of musicians, including Phil Wickham, Beacon Tree, The Format, Radio Racer, Alissa Moreno, Paula Fuga, David Pack, the first Hawaiian Music Grammy Award winner Charles Brotman, and others. Promising responses from her fans and the industry keep Stasia pumped to advance her talents and create the best music she can.
“Right now, I’m just going to keep writing my butt off. I don't think you can ever be your best because nothing can stop you from being better than your best. But you do have to keep trying to get closer. So... I’m going to do that!”
Yea, I'm planning on starting on May 8th in San Diego and weaving up through the coast all the way to Vancouver BC--hitting LA, Monterrey, San Francisco, Southern Oregon, Eugene, Portland, and Seattle on the way with various towns inbetween, then stopping on June 5th. Let me know what you guys think. I'm starting the booking this week so that every thing is ready to go and no one has to worry about anything.
Thats awesome that you won another songwriting contest, your songs are really nice. I'm not surprised.
I really want hear your new stuff. Are you guys making a new page or performing out? I'm doing a west coast tour this summer and if you guys are at all interested in jumping on board.
Berklee has been awesome, and I'm just spending my time learning new things everyday about music and writing. It's a lot of changes of mindset for me musically and it's really nice to be around so many other people all the time that are in love with it as much as I am.
Look for my new songs to be posted. "Lern to Swim" & "My Birthday" I've been working with other musicians to join the mod for marq project so look forward to hearing some other voices and instruments on some new and old tracks soon.
I would enjoy your company at my next show. 8:00 p.m. Friday, November 7th with various other artist. For those of you who can make it I will try to record the show and post a video.
Thanks for your support. Please add me as your friend, post a comment, and/or write me a message.
