THE BIOGRAPHY OF SARICE
Born in Berkshire on December 29th 1972.
Sarice started out her life growing up in South Wales and then moved to Oxfordshire at the age of ten.
Sarice started singing in the church choir performing her first solo part for her junior school concert.
At the age of 11, Sarice wrote her first ever song on a journey in her dad's car, that song won her the talent competition in her first year of senior school.
In the second year, Sarice then 12, wrote her second song for the next talent competition but was told the song was to grown up to perform for school and so was given 'West--sides Story', 'Theres a Place For Us' & became the winner for the second time.
This was all inspired by her then Music Teacher, Miss Goff, who discovered Sarices singing ability when hearing her voice over the rest of the class.
Miss Goff pulled Sarice out from the rest of the class and asked her to sing to them and so did and was promptly entered for the first & second year talent competition.
Sarice began her next step to a career in singing when approached by a manager after performing her winning song at her school concert. This manager was the father of one of the girls in Sarices year at school, who wanted a singer to collaborate with his daughter, a superb and talented keyboardist to perform gigs nationally.
So then it began, 'The Young ones', were born and Sarice attended her first gig practice, learning and rehearsing lots of new song's which would become a daily occurrence not forgetting the writing of some of Sarices own songs to be included.
The Young Ones went on to perform many successful gigs nearly every night of the week and continued to be re-booked by all the clubs and pubs they visited. The gigs performed were a mixture of all types of music to suit every bodies taste, from 60's pop & rock to country & western & up to date pop & R&B.
Sarices opening track was 'River Deep, Mountain High. This showed off the power and versatility of her voice? Sarices confidence and vocal ability went from strength to strength, especially after all the compliments received by the punters after the gigs, not forgetting the constant re-bookings.
The Young Ones continued gigging from the ages of 12 to 15, until one day they decided it was time for a break as they had been extremely busy for a long time.
Sarice followed her other interests such as dance, art, poetry & some modeling, as Sarice was approached to do to do a catwalk show in oxford. How ever music continued to be her biggest passion. In the period the 'young ones' were together Sarice had also won many other talent competitions for singing and dance and continued to practice to her favorite song's and artists through out the coming years.
Sarice grew up on a mixture of musical influences spending all her money on records. This started from her dads old record collection which included the likes of, 'The Shadows' The Beetles, BGees, Country & Soul, to the Television/Radio for Disco, Pop, Rock, Break Dance and R&B etc. Sarice's biggest mentor is, 'Michael Jackson' who to this day is her biggest inspiration.
Sarice moved to Reading at the age of 16 and continued to do her research in to music. Finding new pirate stations such as 'Kiss', opened up her eyes to something new and more cultural. This was the beginning of sarice's introduction to 'Dance music', which was to be her next inspiration, rare groove, Swing Beat, Hip Hop, house etc. This was a great time for her creatively as a lot of time was spent on practicing her singing, designing, writing songs and poetry.
Having found another form of underground music Sarice began dancing on stage for all the local rave nights and the next few years were consumed with exploring musical genres until one day sarice decided it was time to get out there. Having been approached in the London Astoria Club, Sarice was asked to attend auditions at a stage school called New Breed Productions. Sarice grabbed the chance and went to London to take part in the auditions for singing, dance and modeling and was very quickly accepted. This begins a new chapter in to the career path of Sarice both in business and singing.
Sarice moved to London at the age of 19 with the help of New Breed Productions, who in seeing her potential set her up in a flat, shared with one of the female members of the production company. Sarice quickly became involved in helping out as well as attending the classes. Some work was attained from the production co such as modeling dance jobs, voice overs and jingles for radio stations
Sarice was quickly made aware of all the attention that was placed on her when being told of a new opportunity that would take her in to becoming a recording artiste. At this time Jungle/Drum Bass was a big influence for Sarice and New Breed Productions, who also organized a couple of D&B nights every week. This was good, as the members would attend and use this time to network.
Sarice partnered up with the manager of New Breed and they decided to leave to put together a plan to start their own business and began a proposal which led to a deal working on a Drum & Bass Compilation with option for two further albums signed by Mercury/Manifesto, dealing with Judge Jules and Luke Nevel. This involved work with Hynako from Sony Japan and a publishing deal with Westbury Music Publishing. This was great for Sarice as two of her tracks could be included on the album Unfortunately the album was never released due to changes in the undustry
Other work also attained by Sarice as a recording artist whilst this was going on was with academic records, recording her own songs for jungle tracks.On hearing sarice's demo major label Jive, (A&R Roddy McKenna), behind artists such as Allaiyah, R kelly and Stones Roses wanted to work with her but they wasn't ready for jungle at that time and wanted her to do covers which sarice refused as the underground influence had a strong hold on her at the time and didn't want to sell out. Island records A&R (Trevor White) asked Sarice after hearing her demo to do cover of children of the ghetto. Sarice worked in a number of recording studios scattered over London. Worked in a studio in Barnet met Julian Dickens, who had a number of contacts in the industry, was asked her to front a song for the Eurovision song contest which sarice refused. Worked with Don Lloydie behind the hit Greater Love performed by Elizabeth Troy was tipped to be their next big artist but due to cicumstances beyond her control this didn't materialise much to her dissapointment as the credability of working with them was perfect at the time .
Sarice realised after the Manifesto compilation deal fell through that being side tracked by business was not helping her cause And took time out to reflect, took singing lessons both for recording and live for the first time in her life and became more confident and professional realising that her voice and song writing skills was her business. Sarice is now recording her own album and continually writing new songs
