Details:
Singer/songwriter, Cindy Nelson is also a vocal instructor, performer and proprietor of a renown and respected music teaching establishment. She has been singing and writing songs since a very young age, and began performing at 12, singing and playing piano in piano bars and restaurants. Cindy has also fronted several bands, from rock to punk, and has been in musicals, college operas, and even a couple of vaudeville shows.
A few years back while she was living in Arizona, Cindy went into a recording studio to lay down a four song demo. Days after completing the project, two of the songs began receiving regular radio air play. As a matter of fact, Atlantic Records showed considerable interest in her and asked her for more music. Rather than risk becoming just another "one hit wonder", Cindy decided to wait and work on honing her craft.
Since then, Cindy has sharpened her skills by returning to college and getting a degree in music in just three years. She graduated cum laude at Sacramento State University, and was in the top ten of her class. Three months later she opened her music business which has been extremely successful.
Barely a year ago, she recorded an independently released CD, "I CAN d" with some of the top musicians in Northern California, which garnered her a distribution contract with Tower Records. This album wound up in the hands of a respected Nashville producer, Neal James (REM, Bruce Springstien, Willie Nelson.) Working with Mr. James, Cindy recently completed a full alternative rock project in a master quality studio with some of the finest musicians in the business. These included Byrd Burton (Nancy Griffith, Dan Fogelberg, Amazing Rhythm Aces); Darin Favorite (Collin Raye, Pam Tillis Band); Joe Koury (B.B. King, Eddie Raven); Bob Babbitt ( Michael Jackson, Alice Cooper, Jimi Hendrix, Marvin Gaye); Jim Kirby (was Roy Orbison''s keyboardist); Dave Harrison (Edwin McCain Band); and Craig Krampf (Melissa Etheridge, The Motel''s, Steve Perry.) The finished project has already been submitted to major record labels by Mr. James, who continues to shop it around. These labels have indicated considerable interest and are still considering an offer.
Cindy often involves herself in community efforts while working on her music career. She donates her time writing, organizing and directing one act plays for the local youths to perform in for free. Her most recent effort is producing/directing/filming, a public access TV show "El Dorado Sings Out!" featuring videos & more of local talent.
The song Cindy wrote, "We''re Not Falling From Grace" was inspired by the tragedies of September 11th. She dedicated this song to the community and donated many copies to aid in the nation''s healing. Radio stations have added it to their relief play lists, and people have reported playing it at Thanksgiving family gatherings. Art galleries have used it at their openings, doctors play it in their waiting rooms to comfort patients, and even a few lawyers have used it as their signature song to further their political careers. A video that she produced of this song was recently played between sets at two remembrance concerts held in New York City and Paris.
Out of 9000 tracks received, five of Cindy''s songs were chosen to be placed in the database of a New York company that works for clients that are looking for songs for commercials, TV, and films. Track #3 and #8 "I Could Be There For You", and "Intensity" were chosen to be used on TNT''s "Witchblade".
Cindy Nelson is a highly respected musician and teacher. Everyone that has worked with her has been touched by her giving and creative spirit, her professionalism, and her relentless drive to attain her objectives in life. Cindy will continue to further her own musical career as well as teach and share with the community.
