Cay Aliese Perspective on Human For A Minute

My name is Cay Aliese and I am an Indie Pop Artist trying to be a wife, mama, and a musician at the same time! I love my family more than anything and they are the reason I get to do this.

I have always been a deep feeler. I "wear my heart on my sleeve" as the saying goes. But a lot of my life, I hated that about myself. When I became a mom, something shifted and I began to embrace all of the things that made me ME. This song is kind of just expressing that authenticity of being in love with life through the heartbreak and the joy. My background and who I am is something I pour into everything I do, every song I make. And I'm very proud of this one.

I remember listening to all of my Dad's songs. He would always get so excited to show me his new stuff.

I wrestled my whole life with my call to music. Mainly because of the role my dad and his music played in my life. But I really decided this was exactly what I wanted to do a few months after my Dad passed. 2022 came to a close, and 2023 began a whole new chapter of life for me. I can't explain the grief & joy wrapped up in it all, but somehow I'm thankful anyway.

Defintiely Indie Pop and Chill Pop vibes.

Oh my word, I have really watched myself grow and develop over the past year as I've walked through joy and heartbreak. It has all shaped my sound and I really feel like i know what I want with my music now!

My goal with my music is that I would say what others' feel like they can't or maybe don't know how to. I want to help people unpack whatever it is they're holding in and my hope is that it would help them process and heal in some shape or form.

I think for me, I have to measure success by the individual lives I've encountered that have been touhed by my music. As much as I want the world to hear my music, already feel like I've "made it" as they say. Just one life being touched by my music is what it's about.

I just want to break the rules and be authenitically rebellious when it comes to the structure of the music industry. I hope to change things by going against the grain and just being honest about it all.
