Cassidy now professionally performing as Cassidy and The Music and previously as Bohème, was the lead singer for the band Antigone Rising from 1999 through 2008. ==Early life== Cassidy grew up in Sparta Township, New Jersey, a small rural town in Sussex County. She has one brother Eugene. Cassidy says that growing up near the Pennsylvania border amongst the farms and lakes influenced her as a person developing her love of nature and free spirit. She began attending a small gospel church with her Father at a young age, and that's where Cassidy began singing. Her mother's taste in music also influenced her: Bruce Springsteen, Fleetwood Mac, and Southern Rock and soul from the 1970s. Cassidy sang in local bands learning the ropes from local hero Jim Kilby and when she was 18 she moved to New York City, where she worked for a short time as a waitress. When she was not working she often performed solo or with a band. She stayed in New York for about a year and then moved to Los Angeles where she got her first paying job as a singer and dancer in stage reviews written and produced by Emmy Award-Winning Anita Mann. It was around this time that Cassidy traveled through the US, South America and Europe, spending two summers in Alaska. Cassidy moved to London, England where she found work singing jazz four nights a week and session singing for London's premiere jingle house Hobson's. Cassidy also sang with Robert Palmer, The Bucketheads, Curiosity Killed The Cat, Luciana Caporaso and could be heard as the voice in Barbie commercials in the UK. It was there that Cassidy began writing songs on guitar and to this day credits her time in England with informing the way she writes a melody. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cassidy (musician)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
