Nous discutons avec la chanteuse et l'actrice Ruby Hilton qui est actuellement en formation dans les arts du spectacle. Elle a chanté dans une série d'événements et a joué dans de nombreux spectacles à la renommée mondiale Théâtre Stephen Joseph. Elle est sur la route de grandes choses et nous avons pu la rattraper en août ...
Tout d'abord, qu'est-ce qui vous a donné envie de vous lancer dans la musique?
Quand j'avais dix ans et j'étais en sixième année, nous sommes allés voir Matilda The Musicalet honnêtement, c'était la chose la plus incroyable que j'aie jamais vue. Ça m'a vraiment hypnotisé et ça a juste attiré mon imagination, je me souviens avoir réalisé que je voulais faire ça, et je n'ai jamais regardé en arrière depuis!
Que recherchez-vous dans une chanson?
En général, je cherche quelque chose qui ne figure pas dans les charts, donc les artistes qui sont plus sous-estimés que certains autres, vous pouvez souvent trouver de très bonnes chansons par eux. Je suis toujours à la recherche de bops et de bangers, car ils viennent toujours pour nous. And lastly, I just stay open minded and look at as many different song types as possible, you should always stay open minded!
Favourite songs at the moment?
Ok, so for sure ‘I’ll be here’ de Ordinary Days, it’s literally so good. Aussi 'Late Night Feelings' par Mark Ronson is an absolute bop (I must agree). And finally, 'Belly' par Rex Orange County, that’s such a bop. I definitely recommend that you listen to these!
Why do you sing?
I definitely sing to escape the real world, like for just a moment you can step away from reality. Also, I love that by singing about other people’s issues in their songs, you can kind of escape your own for just a few minutes, it means that you can swap characters in just a second. I just love that feeling of becoming someone else when I sing, that’s literally such a buzz.
What’s the best thing about musical theatre?
I mean, I’ve loved theatre forever, or as long as I can remember. I can’t really imagine life without it and I can’t imagine anything other than performing immersed in a character and just absolutely loving it so much. That’s probably one of the best feelings in the world.
Your favourite artist at the moment?
It has to be Rex Orange County, he has some absolute bangers that you can’t help but fall in love with! I just love the music he produces; musical producers definitely don’t get enough appreciation for what they do, especially when they produce some complete bops!
At the end of the day, what’s the big dream?
There are two branches that I will always want to do down. The first being musical theatre and going to The West End et Broadway and performing in some of the worlds biggest musicals. Then the other one is becoming a recording artist and writing/producing my own music. I’d love to find and develop my own style of music and find that category that I really fit into and love.
What advice would you give to any of those kids like you who want to go into music?
Practice practice practice! Honestly, practice makes perfect! And quite simply you can’t get good if you don’t practice something. Also, find your own personality through the music, it sounds weird but you really have to be your own person and find that place in music which you love more than anything else!
