Tacking it back

By Andy Downing

This article has two purposes, first, to talk about Kirby Kaiser’s life. She is a nineteen years old girl that likes too much 50’s and 60’s music and fashion. She blossomed early as a singer, netting an award for “most likely to be a pop star” all the way back in preschool. She commented that her first song was inspired when a guy didn’t like to be her boyfriend and she play it for him and that song talked about how he broke her heart. She also commented that when she is upset about a guy or something, she is mainly inspired to write music. In addition she intimated about her unlucky in love but she try to keep her cool, singing and being with her friends. Lastly, this article talks about an event that she is going to promote, this event will be this Saturday at 9:30 p.m. at Reggie’s Music Joint, 2105 S. State St. Tickets cost $5.00.

In my opinion, she is a very nice girl that can express her feelings through the songs in an easy way. I think that she cannot be an unlucky girl in love because she is beautiful. And I believe that her event will be a success because she is a winner singer with much talent. And I approve her event because people can socialize through events like this.
