“I HEAR MUSIC IN MY HEAD” “There have been times when I could not sleep because a lyric or a melody would be in my head” These are the words of singer-songwriter T.J. Brown. T.J. says this has been going on since the age of five. “I would be in my room making up a melody with complete lyrics and harmonies and turn it over in my head” T.J. says. Born as Tanya Jenine Brown and raised in Chicago IL, T.J. went through much of her adult life not taking her talent too seriously. I knew I could sing,” she says, “But I felt much more comfortable singing at weddings, church, or being a session singer in the studio."A local producer, and now one of her best friends Darell “DEE BEST” Bester gave her a deeply spiritual and moving song called “Dreamin” that changed her outlook on things. “I figured I was always happy in the company of music, in everything I do…music has to be involved. However, it has not been easy and there have been a lot of rough times, but T.J. finally believes her day has come. On her debut CD “LOVE’S DESIGN” there is a combination of slow melodic love making tunes with deep lyrical content. In “LOVE’S DESIGN” the title track, T.J. expresses her desire to be “taken away to another space and time” which brings about the crazy, euphoric feeling of being in love. In “WHY U WANNA LEAVE ME?” T.J. tells the story of a woman doing everything for her man but still loses him anyway… “I write totally from experience because that is the only true way I can express myself through my art” she says. “Every stage I have gone through, every love-feeling, whether it’s craziness, sadness, or happiness has left an affect on me.” These are true with the other joints on the CD as well. Be it soft, melodic, or hypnotic, for every aspect of these songs, for every aspect of love there is a "design" ... “LOVE’S DESIGN". So get ready to wrap your ears around music therapy for the heart.
