In that chat show, we interviewed the singer Maisie Peters after she gave a private show at Atlantic Records in Manhattan, New York. We had a lot of fun chatting with her—we even got to sing with her!
Q: At what age did you start singing and playing the guitar, and do you play other instruments?
A: I think I started singing probably when I was 8 in a singing club. When I started playing the guitar, I was 12 or 13 years old. Actually, I played the guitar at first. I played it during my whole elementary school period, but I was so bad. My twin sister at that time played the clarinet. We were both equally awful. So my poor parents had to listen to terrible noises. Then I gave up.
Q: How do you remember the words to your songs?
A: I sing them a lot. I guess when you do anything a lot, it's just easier to remember. You just have to practise all the time. Before I go on stage, I sing all the words under my breath. I still forget words sometimes, which is embarrassing. But you get over it and it's fine.
Q: What advice would you give to someone who wants to be a singer?
A: If you're going to be a singer, put yourself out there as much as you can. It's pretty easy to do that nowadays with social media. And that's how I got started. And when you're my age, you feel like you've got the best stuff to present. You can start a career on your own nowadays. You don't need anyone to help you with that. So just put yourself out there.
