Get to know more about Samarah Conley as she chats about the meaning behind Movin’ On, her biggest musical inspiration, and her advice for her fans!
SAMARAH CONLEY: Knowing that people struggle with things and how vulnerable they can be during these times, I wanted to write a song to let people know that people are there for them to help them move on.
I was feeling vulnerable about a situation at the time when I wrote the song and realized many people go through similar feelings that I was dealing with.
SAMARAH: I am currently working on a new single at home and as soon as I can get back into the studio with my producer, Len Monachello, we will begin laying down tracks. Unfortunately, we can’t do anything until further notice due to the quarantine guidelines in the New York City area.
SAMARAH: I remember always watching other talented child actors on Disney and Nickelodeon shows, which really inspired me to pursue my acting career. When I was seven years old and felt comfortable, I went for it!
SAMARAH: A few months before the COVID-19 quarantine, I began taking figure skating lessons and I absolutely love it just as much as singing and acting. Currently, I am doing off ice training via FaceTime with my coach Sandy until the ice rink opens back up.
SAMARAH: My parents, who are my biggest supporters, my friends, who always encourage me, and sushi.
SAMARAH: My biggest inspiration is Freddie Mercury. He struggled in life and pushed to reach his dreams. He is a musical genius.
SAMARAH: I make a positive impact simply by being a good-hearted person towards others all of the time.
SAMARAH: My biggest dream for my future is to be a positive role model to others and inspire people to achieve their goals and dreams.
SAMARAH: To my fans I would say always follow your dreams no matter how big or small and do not let anyone bring you down. Always stay positive.
