who am I?


So... I don't know if there's already someone who wants to know who I am... but I want to tell you.


Simply - who am I?
I am Helaine Vis - 19-year-old singer-songwriter.


What do I like to do, and what do I need to do?
My biggest passions are - music, poetry, art. I love both creating and listening/reading/admiring. I am a vegetarian - it become some kind of passion. What I need to do - I wanted to find a creative way to say that I am studying and it's not my favourite thing ever. I'm studying French and English. I like it but...I am generally not a big fan of studying. (I prefer life lessons)

Where am I from and why I'm not gonna tell you?
 I live in one of these not too interesting, not to bad countries in Europe. I don't think that an information about where I am now is that important. The most important thing for me is where I will be in the future. My goal is to move to London and grow as an artist-musician-singer-songwriter. I dream about it since I was young

My activity in the internet
I am totally independent so I do everything by myself - I record covers(video and audio), I make photos, I edit them, I create backgrounds, themes... I promote my stuff all day and all night. But it feels really good. I really enjoy doing it all.


What kind of music do I like to listen to, what kind of music do I want to make?
I think that what I listen to is similar to what I want to create. I really love sad songs. I admire artist I listen to for different things. I am a big Amy Winehouse fan. I am so impressed by her vocals, songwriting and... attitude(I am not saying about her addictions, I like how much she didn't give a fuck about things) and a important fact that everyone forgets about - she was sensitive. I really like Emeli Sande especially for songwriting. I like David Bowie - he is just one of the kind. I adore Soko. The way she is direct and a bit weird but it's a good thing. I am also a big fan of Selah Sue, her energy, songwriting, music... I like listening to Daughter - their lyrics and music are brilliant. So, I would like my music to be emotional, passionate, real and maybe a bit edgy and unregular sometimes...

It seems like I see much more in music
Music inspires me, but mostly along with artists creating it. That's a reason why I want to write. For example: Jessie J is someone that I admire mostly for the way she acts/talks/writes. I am not into her music too much. I am into her talent (incredible vocals) and the way she talks to audience. She has always been something to me. She helped me with understanding that I need to be myself no matter what. And nowadays it's a really good message to have to young people - be true to who you are!


My dreams and goals
It was already said - I want to go to London to make music. But I wan much more than this. I am a dreamer so... I want to help people with my music and lyrics. I want to write songs about my mistakes to make people avoid making them. I want to create and find people who will want me to create more... I want to mean something. I want to leave something to this world. Something good, something important.




thank you for your attention, I hope I don't write only for myself
