Today we’d like to introduce you to Camryn Gardner.
Camryn, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
I have been singing my whole life. I was involved in every church choir/plays, musicals at my theatre back home, show choir in high school. Led the youth band from 7th grade until I graduated high school and was in every choir my college (Clemson University) offered, including the accapella group. I had a slower start to writing songs but since moving to Nashville I have written hundreds and have developed a love for song writing as well. I have been in town a little over 2 years and I have been playing writing almost everyday since.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Definitely not. A month before a moved to Nashville I lost my uncle and I almost didn’t move: I did, and I’m glad I did, but it was the hardest year of my life maneuvering through grief in a city where I knew no one. I think the most I’ve struggled being in Nashville is with comparing myself and feeling behind. It is a struggle to be sure and confident in your ability when you’re surrounding by so much talent.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I currently work during the day in the industry doing business management, while also being an independent artist. I am very proud of the two songs I have out, hero and talkin’ tequila, but I have more on the way very soon.
We’d be interested to hear your thoughts on luck and what role, if any, you feel it’s played for you?
I feel like I haven’t been “lucky” per say. Moving to Nashville is hard for anyone and everything I’ve done while being here I feel like I have worked hard for. With that being said, I think everything happens for a reason and the doors that have closed for me are just so that the right ones can be opened. Hard work always pays off in my opinion,
