“I never really chose to sing,” says Chelsea, a 21 year-old Jacksonville-native with her album, A Good Woman, under her belt. “I wanted to write songs,” she clarifies. She performs regularly at European Street Café and Twisted Sisters, where she can ease into her laid back sound without much interruption. “It’s all happened really fast,” she says. “I never sought out to be on CD, or to get promoted. I just kind of fell into it,” she says. The former FCCJ student worked in the corporate world before becoming engrossed in her music. She never thought she could make money from writing songs and playing guitar. “It was kind of heartbreaking working at a desk,” she admits. But as any musician will tell you, she doesn’t write songs for the money. “To see the look on the faces [in the audience] is awesome,” she says.
