Terra Naomi has an impossibly beautiful voice and writes lyrics with astounding rawness. One way or another, Ms. Naomi is sure to pull on your heart. Her intense honesty makes her refreshing and relatable. It is hard to imagine anyone not falling in love with Terra.
Terra Naomi took the internet by storm one night when she recorded herself playing her song Say It's Possible, inspired by the movie An Inconvenient Truth and uploaded it to YouTube. As I type this, that video has been viewed 3,843,019 times. In March of 2007, she received one of the inaugural YouTube Video Awards for the music video category. In July of 2007 she performed at Live Earth at Wembley Stadium in London in front of 80,000 people. After a stint with a major label, Terra is now contract free and working on a new album, powered by herself. To quote Ms. Naomi's twitter: "Is there anything I can't do? I'm beginning to think the answer might be no."
Those inspired and touched by Terra Naomi via YouTube now span the globe, myself included. I couldn't believe it when I saw that Ms. Naomi was scheduled to perform at the Pride Fest in Colorado Springs, a mere seventy miles from my home, when I was sure I would have to travel to Los Angeles. In person, Terra is just as sweet and genuine as a fan of her music would think. She is so warm, so kind, so friendly, and so candid. She was all smiles and honestly loves what she does and the people who support her. After watching Terra perform, we made our way to the edge of the festival grounds to have a talk that left me all smiles.
How are you enjoying Colorado?
I love it. I love Colorado. I’ve spent quite a bit of time here, actually. Both of my brothers went to university here and my cousins live here.
