Section 36 Music has another visitor!  Amira Noor is an incredible singer fresh off the release of her single "One More Time". I was thrilled she was willing to visit with us and discuss her music, future goals, and more. I’m sure you’ll love everything she has to say.

So, let's see what happens when Amira Noor visits Section 36 Music!

I really enjoyed your recent single “One More Time”. What can you tell me about it?

Thank you so much! “One More Time” is a really special project for me. I actually wrote it in 2018 and auditioned for Berklee College of Music with it. Back then the song was so different. It only contained lead vocals and piano. After attending Berklee, I knew I wanted to leave the college with a new single. I decided to work on this song and change it by collaborating with super talented musicians at the school. I always heard and wanted strings on this song. Luckily, after reaching out to a few string players, I was able to have an amazing string section on my track. 

In addition to your music you’ve been able to do some modeling. What do you enjoy about being in front of a camera?

I really enjoy being able to express myself. I love doing photoshoots where I get to dress up and play with the clothing, products or accessories that I am shooting for. 

 

You recently graduated from Berklee College of Music. What’s the biggest thing Berklee did for your career? 

Attending Berklee College of Music was a dream. I would say the biggest thing it did for me was allow me to get out of my comfort zone. I am someone who has always struggled with stage fright. Berklee allowed me to be myself and overcome my fears as I was able to watch everyone do the same thing and learn that I am not alone. 

 

Who or what would you consider your biggest musical influences?

My biggest musical influences are Alicia Keys, Adele and John Legend. 

 

What would you say is your biggest career challenge?

I think one of my biggest challenges is overthinking. Every time I write a song, I overthink so much about whether it is good enough or if people will like it instead of just believing in it. 

 

What are your immediate career goals?

I want to start releasing more music as well as performing live.

Thanks again Amira, and good luck reaching your goals!

Mar Visits Section 36 Music!

Section 36 Music has another visitor!  Mar is a fantastic singer fresh off the release of her single "Memories". I was so excited she was willing to visit with us and discuss her music, future goals, and more. I’m sure you’ll love everything she has to say.

So, let's see what happens when Mar visits Section 36 Music!

I’m a huge fan of your recent single “Memories”. What can you tell me about it?

First of all, thank you! Memories was taken straight out of my journal. It is a song I wrote for myself in order to help me heal from a broken heart. It is a song that is very close to my heart and I actually considered not releasing it because of that. 

Is there any other studio work in your future?

Yes! I am currently working on my next song which I am very excited about! I plan to release a lot of music this year.

You recently graduated from Berklee College of Music. What’s the biggest thing Berklee has done for your career? 

I think a big thing that Berklee taught me was to be more confident in myself. Being in one of the greatest music schools, surrounded by so many talented people, can be a little intimidating. I think being at Berklee helped me figure out who I was as an artist. 

Who or what would you consider your biggest musical influences?

I think by three biggest influences are Amy Winehouse, Adele, and Taylor Swift

What would you say is your biggest career challenge?

I think one of my biggest challenges is that I am too much of a perfectionist. I can spend days in the studio trying to get the perfect vocal take. Also, while writing songs, I always think there is something I can do better, may it be changing a chord, or a part of the lyric or the melody.

What are your immediate career goals?

I want to release as many songs as I can this year. I also want to focus more on performing, which is something I haven't done much since I have been super focused in songwriting.
