THOUGH the music industry in Guyana is not so promising, given the absence of copyright laws and all, there are several people across the country who find comfort in writing and singing their own music, and have been committed to doing so.
20-year-old Candida Andrea Daniels is one such person who uses music as her escape from life’s turmoil.

In an interview with ‘the Buzz Magazine’, Candida said that she has been singing for years, but on Wednesday March 27, she released her first single through Vizion Sounds Records.
That single is titled ‘Steady’, and it speaks of wanting to find love and at the same time being hesitant about it because of past experiences.

The song, she said, was inspired from experiences she had in past relationships.
“I’ve been in relationships that never went the way I wanted it, and I think it’s because I never took the time to really get to know the individual. I then said to myself that the next person I meet, I’m going to take it ‘Steady’,” the young woman said.
In addition to this release, Daniels said that she is currently working on an album with Vizion Sounds, which will be released soon.

She hopes to inspire people around the world through her music, and be an artiste that people can look up to.
Although she has been a lover of music most of her life, Daniels said she came to realise how deeply she loves this art, when she first started recording.

“I loved doing music all my life, but the first time I picked up the headphone and sang into that microphone to do my first recording, I’ve developed an even greater love for music. It made me feel so much alive,” the young artiste said.

With aspirations of being the best version of herself, Daniels would like to encourge other youngsters like herself to not see the sky as a limitation.
“It’s never too late to turn your dreams and visions into reality. What you want in life, you must work hard towards achieving it, and most importantly, believe that it will come through, Candida said, adding:

“I’ve always been aiming to be a recording artiste, and here I am today with my first single, and anxiously awaiting the launch of my new album. You just have to believe and keep pressing on.”

The new release is available on all digital platforms, including iTunes, Spotify, Zojak, Amazon, and Google play.
