Dallas, Texas (PRWEB) February 12, 2013
Folk artist and singer/songwriter, Heather McCready, is not only recognized in the Dallas/ Forth Worth area for her passionate involvement in suicide prevention but is also earning high praise by the artistic community for her talents in creative folk music writing and performance. Heather has been featured over 6 times in the last 2 years on "Good Day Dallas", "Good Morning Texas, and "Chanel 11 Evening News". She now has five full-length critically acclaimed CD's. When only 2 years professionally in the music industry Heather made her mark by getting the cover and feature story in "Buddy, the Original Texas Music Magazine". And by the looks of it today, it is safe to say, Heather McCready, brimming with talent optimism and determination is sure to be going places!
On February 8th, Heather McCready sat down with discriminating music critic, Mario Tarradell, of "The Dallas Morning News" for a video performance and engaging fist time face- to- face interview about her music and being bipolar. She selected the mesmerizing song, "Neverland", title song of her second CD, about escape, something Heather knows a lot about to sing. When she speaks in the interview she does so with uncanny poise in a down-to-earth, relatable manner, which is causing people to begin listening. Heather's hope is to put a new face on mental illness by speaking unapologetically about her family's history with multiple suicides, her own suicide attempt and subsequent treatment with Electro-Convulsant Therapy (Ect, or Shock Treatments) which she attributes to saving her life. "The stigmas wont' stop till survivors will talk", Heather says with a smile. It is a new slogan she is using for T-Shirts on her website, hoping her fans and fellow advocated will latch on to. She has quite a lot of support on her Facebook Page "Join Heather McCready to Fight for Mental Health Awareness". She has a point, we don't hear the treatment stories. There is still that hush-hushed fearful silence holding us all back while the negative images of violence associated with mental illness continue to bombard the media and our heads.What other point of reference will most people have?
Here is Heather McCready with Renowned Producer/Arranger, Milo Deering performing the title song from her third album, "Neverland".
