Amanda Silvera (Born January 12th 1989), is a Canadian song writer, recording artist, model and actress.
Born to Jamaican Immigrants, Amanda was surrounded by multitudes of culture, rhythm and rhyme. She attended choir as a child and was noted by teachers at a young age as being a gifted writer and artist.
She was offered placement in a School for gifted children around the age of nine, but was reluctant and eventually refused the offer explaining that she did not want to be told how to do something that she didn't do herself.
When asked where her inspiration came from, her explanation was and still is; "it was sent to me."
Amanda trained in dance for eight years, she dabbled in ballet, jazz, hip hop, tap, irish tap and irish jazz.
By the age of 13 her heart and mind was set on every aspect of the arts. She was begging for any opportunity to grow as an artist.
She trained in modelling and acting and was voted most likely to succeed by her teachers and fellow classmates.
Though dance, acting and modelling brought great joy to her, there was still something missing for Amanda.
"My friends were always so excited to get tickets to concerts like the spice girls or Destiny's Child and Alecia Keys...but I really didn't want to go most of the time.. because it made my heart ache in unexplainable ways. I would be that weirdo girl crying in the audience.. because my entire being ached to be on that stage. Nobody really knew I could even sing!
I was so low key about my singing.. I was so shy about it for some reason. I was an awkward loner kind of kid, I loved to dance and act because I felt I could be some one else.. I was this new character.. but I felt so vulnerable singing.. especially singing something I had written."
By the age of 14, Amanda had created a private home studio. She recorded using her computer and a tiny dollar store microphone. Though her nerves held her from singing live to an audience, to her little plastic microphone, she could pour her heart out. She asked for and was able to procure voice training from two excellent teachers in Vancouver, who both commended her and supported her dream to sing.
By 16, Amanda was ready to take the next step; she made a promise to herself that
if anyone knew her, they must know that she sang. If asked to sing.. she must sing.. no matter how hard her heart beat and her hands shook.
This Vow began Amanda's networking journey. She very quickly began to meet artists/producers and engineers that would introduce and guide her in her lifelong obsession and she has since recorded, worked and opened for artists she thought she could only dream of, such as; Too short , Bobby Valentino, Jeremih, Brian McKnight, Tony Toni Tone, SWV and Ginuwine and in June 2011 was a headline act in Bristol, UK for the Press Play Est. Launch party.
After collaborating with many local hip-hop artists, writing and singing mainly hooks, Amanda's veered towards a solo career as a song writer/singer in 2008.
In 2009, She was introduced to Chronico Music Group's Clarence Au (C infamous) The collaboration was nothing short of destiny.
"It was like christmas, it was one of the best days of my life-no exaggeration, I had never "clicked" like that with a producer, I had never known the high of vibing on that level musically.." Amanda and the Chronico team has created and continues to create some of her best work including her first single "On My Mind" (https://amandasilvera.bandcamp.com/track/on-my-mind).
In 2010 Amanda met Red1 and Dj Kemo of the Rascalz/Killawatt/Vanguards who became immediate family.
Another Dream came true When Red and Kemo agreed to collaborate.
Upwards and onwards is The only way to go from here.
