Greyson Chance J-14 Exclusive Q&A

Greyson Chance recently chatted it up with the J-14 crew about his new partnership with social networking site Everloop, his experience in the studio with Ariana Grande, and what we can expect from him in the way of new music!

The following interview is courtesy of J-14.  You can checkout the complete article here.

J-14: What made you want to be a part of Everloop?
Greyson Chance:
 I’m super excited to get involved with Everloop. I love the program. It’s a great social network — even for kids younger than me. If you have a Facebook, you need a little more responsibility, but Everloop is a young social network that is great for kids. It’s really important for young people to feel safe online, and they can do that on Everloop.

J-14: Do you have any advice for teens who are battling bullies online?
Greyson:
 The best advice is if you don’t like what you’re seeing online, then don’t get online. It’s not fun, but it’s what you kind of have to do in this world today.

J-14: We heard you have some new music on the way! Can you give us details?
Greyson:
 There’s gonna be some new music coming soon, but I don’t want to give too many details quite yet! But I can tell you that it’s going to be a bit different from the last album.

J-14: You recently recorded a song with your good friend, Ariana Grande! What was that experience like?
Greyson:
Ariana is a blast and we always have a good time. That was a really fun recording session. We wrote a song completely from scratch, and it has a really vintage sound. We recorded it in the same room with two different mics, so it has a great sound.

J-14: Who else are you a fan of right now?
Greyson:
 I’m a huge fan of Taylor Swift - it would be incredible to do a duet with her. And I love One Direction! I love their first single [„What Makes You Beautiful"].

The magazine is also holding a contest where fans can win tickets to an upcoming show at Edmond Santa Fe High School!

Greyson Chance’s interview with Metro Family Magazine can be found in its entirety below courtesy of MetroFamilyMagazine.com.

MFM: How did you become interested in music and the performing arts? Who were some of your biggest influences?
Greyson: I’ve been singing as long as I can remember and I started playing piano when I was around eight years old. I really started to explore different artists and styles of music a few years later. Some of my earliest musical influences were The Beatles and Journey.

MFM: How did your parents encourage your interest and talents? How did they help you to achieve your goals?
Greyson: Both of my parents are very supportive of me. My mother has always been really into music and theater—she‘s always given me advice about how to be a better performer.

MFM: What has life been like with the successes and opportunities that you have had? How do you feel like your life compares to that of other teenagers?
Greyson: It’s been great! I’m so excited to be able to live out my dream. My life is different than other teenagers because I do school online and I’m constantly traveling, but in many ways it hasn’t changed—if I get in trouble, my parents take away my phone or computer!

MFM: What is the best and most memorable experience you have had since your rise to fame? What has been most difficult?
Greyson: Going into the studio and creating music is the most incredible experience. I’m very lucky to be able to do it. It’s been hard getting used to constantly being away from my friends and family.

MFM: What do you see as the most important thing that the arts can offer for someone your age?
Greyson: Music for me has always been a way to express how I feel, I think it’s great for someone my age to have some sort of creative outlet.

MFM: What advice do you have for other kids who are interested in trying to make their mark in music and the performing arts?
Greyson: Keep on following your dreams and don’t let anyone put you down or tell you that you can’t do it!

Greyson Chance Captures International Spotlight in Germany’s Bravo Magazine

Greyson Chance has come a long way since performing on stage at the Edmond music festival only a short time ago.  The small town teen has gone from virtually unknown to hanging in the big leagues with some of the music industry’s most notable stars like Lady Gaga.  Since capturing the United States media spotlight, Greyson has quickly become a household name in other parts of the world as well.

On August 5th when we ran a statistics check on Greyson’s #1 Fan Site, we told you that Germany was around the #7 most popular country for Greyson Chance Fans.  Recently we came across an article in Germany’s Bravo magazine featuring Greyson Chance and pop star Cody Simpson side-by-side.

Unfortunately nobody on the Greyson Chance Fan Site development team spoke German, so we reached out to one of our community members, Arjin who does.  Arjin is a huge Greyson Chance fan and graciously sent us a synopsis of the article.

The article is a two-page spread with huge photos of Greyson Chance and Cody Simpson standing next to each other.  The article talks about Greyson and Cody’s “Friendship Pact against Justin Bieber”.  While we presume the magazine was only injecting a bit of humor here, (Greyson and Cody have publicly said several times that they respect Justin and all that he’s accomplished), they both are on the same path as they work diligently to achieve their music goals.

Reading on the article jokes about Greyson and Cody’s goal to conquer the hearts of girls.  BravoMag still credits Justin Bieber with the “Greatest Girls Swarm in the World” award.  Do you agree with that?  How long will Justin hold this award?

Greyson Chance in Germany's Bravo Magazine

By the day Greyson is popping up in magazines and other forms of print media all over the world.  With this international media blitz surrounding Greyson, his popularity and fan base is growing by the day.  Just earlier this week we highlighted one of Brazil’s biggest Greyson Chance fans.

Once Greyson’s debut album drops this upcoming holiday season, those that have been living under a rock the past few months will finally see what this teen singing sensation we call Greyson Chance is all about.  If you think he’s been all over the media now, just wait!
