Today let me introduce you to a new voice, Bianca Merkley. Once you give her a listen I think you will have to agree with me that this young lady is an old soul.
She has good songwriting skills as well as a beautiful voice. Check out a few tracks here from her new album, A Part of Me, and I'm sure you will be a convert.
Bianca Merkley does not look or behave like one might expect from a rock star. Bianca is, and always has been, a down-to-earth type of girl; one who others might say enjoys the wisdom and foresight that suggests she is an old soul. Her unpretentious beauty is natural and unassuming. But don’t be fooled by the mysterious and soft-spoken girl holding the guitar and standing before you in front of the microphone. This girl rocks the house.
For her 16th birthday, Bianca was given two choices: #1. A Car; #2. A Guitar. At 16, the majority of teenagers would jump at the opportunity to own the freedom that a set of wheels can provide. However, Bianca had the maturity to choose a different sort of freedom, an enduring freedom that music and artistic expression gave her, even as a teenager. The decision to choose a guitar over the car would be one that she would never regret as well as a decision that would alter the course of her life.
