Today we’d like to introduce you to Sidney Luxx
Hi Sidney, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
My music journey was a ride, I fell in love with music at 5 years old. It all started with dance performing In my grandma’s front lawn so everyone can see me, I did it for years actually. My mom took notice how of happy dancing made me, it’s like I was in my own little world. Seeing no one but feeling everything. Around that time I watched a movie about ballet and the training ballet dancers had to go through, I took inspiration and started to train myself like them. I believe that’s when my love for ballet started, eventually my mom put me in a class so I can train under a professional. I took a few more classes in different genres after as well, I wanted to try everything.
I started singing at the age of 7, it was like another door of myself unlocked. I would always sing Halo by Beyonce or any Ariana Grande song that was on the radio.I was shy to show my voice for a very long time, it took me years to become confident in my singing Til this day I say I’m a performer not a singer, although I am more confident now, dance is still my strength. In 7th grade I found out about garage band and started to play around on it, I fell in love with the frequency of music and building beats that I would hear in my head. My sister is the only person I would let hear them, she was the only person I trusted with this little secret of mine at the time.
In high school, I found out about Korea and their music called Kpop. It started off with a few videos of BTS and GOT7 but that turned into a deep dive in a whole new world. The singing, Music video visuals, and their dancing was something that truly inspired me in a way like never before. Til this day I can’t imagine my life in any other way, I started to send audition clips to agency’s in Korea hoping I could become an idol,I started to learn the language and culture. Korean culture is extremely beautiful and I hope more people take a chance to look into it, while preparing to graduate I started to fall out of love with music producing, writing and singing all of it came to a stop. I thought it was time for me to “grow up” I lost hope that I could turn music into my career. I went to college, started a small business, a really big part of myself disappeared.
The day after my 21st birthday I moved to LA, I did the only thing everyone told me not to do. I left everything and everyone I knew to follow a feeling, I just knew I was suppose to go to LA. I didn’t know how to explain it to my family, but it wouldn’t leave my heart. I convince my dad to drive with me, in my small Nissan with my whole life packed in the back. I remember crying listening to Don’t look back by Miguel as we drove past the “Welcome to Los Angeles” sign. I met so many people in LA from Influencers, Actors and some of my favorite artist from when I was younger. I say I got thrown into the industry hanging out with big artist inspired me to get back into creation, after years I finally downloaded garage band again. One Night i ended up in a studio with “G”, we listened to his unreleased music and tour ideas, I ended up showing him a beat I was working on and he loved it. He told me, I should get back into music and really make it happen for myself.
I took his words to heart, someone I admired growing up said I have potential in the industry. It woke up the part of me that was asleep for all of those years, it took that one night for me to start trusting in myself. I felt producing music was my calling, it wasn’t until I met my first love that inspired me to start writing and singing again. His passion for his art was something I’ve never seen before, watching his passion for his music motivated me, it still motivates me til this day. at that time I still thought I was meant to be in the background, until I went to Coachella for the first time. I saw my favorite girl group BlackPink that’s when I had my first out of body experience. I felt like I truly saw myself for the first time, everything went quite and I looked over at the big screen and saw my face, not the ladies of black pink. I saw myself singing, dancing and enjoying the crowd on stage, that moment changed my life.
I started training again, in singing and dancing. I trained for 3 years, finding my sound, my image, and overall who and what I wanted to be. Chasing my childhood dreams made me love life again, I found my purpose again. After 3 years of training I am ready to show the world Sidney Luxx the Artist. I believe my debut BODY is the perfect introduction of me!
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
A challenge for me is staying true to my vision, or if people will love my creations just as mush as I do or even more.
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I am a Music Producer, Performer and Song Writer
Currently I am known for my instrumentals but one day soon i will be known for my songs/songwriting skills
I am most proud of myself growth and my music growth
I believe the mix of my Korean pop sound with my R&B hooks makes me unique to my peers
So maybe we end on discussing what matters most to you and why?
My family, From my blood to my soul family matters the most. Also Growth in oneself, Staying in a stuck mentality is a scary place. so working on my mental health, my heart and my body matters just as much
