“Same ground. Different sound. You’re listening to Homoground. This is Madeline Finn from Nashville, Tennessee and I identify as queer.
“Since COVID-19, I’ve had to cancel a full European tour, a full living room tour that I had booked for the summer and a couple other really awesome opportunities like opening up for Brent Cobb and Rainbow Girls and some other festivals as well. It’s been weird shifting into an online presence as opposed to a live performance, because I feel personally that the live performance is where I thrive; the live performance is the part I love most about my job other than connecting with people and to not have it in my current reality is tough. Shifting to an online presence has been challenging for me, mostly because I’m not great at technology, but we’re learning! The livestreams have been cool, but it’s been more of an introspective time. You know, when I perform, I feed off the energy of those listening. I feed off the crowd interaction and all that. And with that gone, because when you play, you know, people can comment, but you don’t hear applause. You don’t get to see people reacting or get to share that emotional energy that’s just in the room with them. So it’s been more introspective. I’ve been able to, like, play a song and feel it for myself and kind of go inward. This has been a time of a lot of self-reflection. And as I start to try and bring that out on my social media and on my livestreams and on things like this, it’s brand new for me. But I think it’s taking me to a place of more integrity and more vulnerability. And I’m really excited for how this time is going to shape my live show in the future.”

Transcription of Sinzere’s story:
My artist name is Sinzere, obviously derives from the word sincere. What I did is I just switched the letter of “C” with the letter “Z” just to kind of give it its own identity, as a cool way to represent everything that I am. I’m very sincere to my artistry. It made a lot of sense, in that aspect. I go by the name of Sinzere. Music has kind of been with me since I was a young girl. I remember at a very young age, like around five, four or five, it was kind of like a way to escape the things that I was going through at that time. It’s always kind of been there, through my story when I really got into music and started recording records and working on production. I would say about 2012, it was self-start, it was DIY. In the beginning it was a notepad and ideas and a beat from a stereo. As I progressed and as I learned more and started taking it a little more seriously, I graduated from that to a friend’s basement, to a computer with computer headphones that had a microphone attached, super amateur, and I graduated from that to a friend’s bathroom. It started growing where, you know, we had maybe an apple tower, and a professional microphone and more things to work with. We used programs like Logic, and finally graduating to a state of the art studio. It started with just a notepad and a beat.
