Introducing Crystal Burgess Creative Genius #2
If you close your eyes, and she opens her mouth to sing in front of you, you'll be quite surprised that such a huge strong voice is being projected from a lady with such a small frame. No microphones needed!Even with our eyes open, it's truly unbelievable. Crystal Burgess is a powerhouse. And luckily for the world, she uses her power for good and not evil. I can personally say from observation that she practices what she preaches. She is such a sweet (and sometimes feisty) soul and a wonderful prayer warrior to have by your side. She isn't new to the Christian music seen and being recorded, but she is new to going solo. She's currently promoting her new single "Give Him Your Life" released on iTunes. It's only 99 cents, so download your copy today! More information is below.
Quick Q&A:
Q: How many hours a day/week do you practice your craft?
A: I actually sing everyday, but only really practice maybe twice a week for a couple of hours. This needs improvement.
Q: Any advice for young go-getters desiring to get into the music field?
A: My advice is to pray and seek God for direction and instruction, because he will lead and guide you throughout your career. Also stay focused and disregard the nay-sayers because "greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world".
Q: This is the FTFC blog so I must ask: What's your ideal meal?
A:This is a hard question, because I love to eat. (laughter) I would have to say my ideal meal is macaroni and cheese, rice w/gravy, collard greens, cornbread, and baked chicken.
(That's a truly southern meal right there!)
Bio:
I was born and raised in the small town of Kingstree, SC. Being born into a family in which my father was a pastor, I was blessed to be brought up in the church. I’ve been singing since the age of 5 years old, and my passion for singing grew as my relationship with God got stronger. I first began writing songs in high school and my desire for song writing and singing manifested itself even into my college years. While being a student at the University of South Carolina, I had the pleasure of joining a choir known as Chosen where in I had the privilege of meeting a group of great individuals. Shortly thereafter, I begin singing with John Lakin and BOW, formerly known as Youth On A Mission (YOAM). In 2005, God granted me favor to lead a song on John’s first CD project entitled Lord You Are Lovely. I have also had the opportunity of singing background vocals for recording artist Jabari Wade and Alisha Greene. As my knowledge of God grew, my purpose concerning his will for my life became more clear. God blessed me with the gift of singing and I must present it back to him by using it to bless others. I am an independent gospel artist dedicated to producing music that wins souls for the Kingdom of God.
