my dad guitar shopping
Hello everybody! My name is Khaila Marie Fratis and I am a transfer student from UAS, now attending UAF. I grew up on a small island in the middle of the Bering Sea, Saint Paul Island, Alaska. I am majoring in Elementary Education here at UAF, and I hope to become an educator one day.
My dad has a band called the "Vibe Tribe" and this was my first introduction to music. This led me to become interested in singing and learning the ukulele and guitar like my dad. Music and singing something I like to do in my free time, and during the summers with my dad's band but I listen to music everyday. I have not been to a concert before but I would love to one day!
Below is a song by an artists I have been listening to since I first started getting interested in music. Her name is Grace Vanderwaal, and this song has been a favorite of hers for years now :)
I haven't thought of Grace Vanderwaal in years. As an elementary teacher, I saw wonderful integration of reading and history in the classroom with teachers that played guitar in their classes every day. If you'd like to hear how they did it in 2nd and 5th grade - let me know.
ReplyDeleteMy dad had a band too that did rock covers, and that also brought me into the world of music. I ended up learning a lot about music from him, especially playing the guitar.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Grace Vanderwaal! Moonlight and Clearly are for sure my top two songs from her, especially "Clearly"; her lyrics are genuinely healing for me in that song. She has such a lovely, unique voice, airy but also a total powerhouse, gives me chills.
