In the tar heel state of North Carolina, rising star, Sicily, is a 13 year old musician, dancer and singer/songwriter who loves to perform her own original music. Besides dreaming of becoming a pop star, Sicily’s biggest goal in life is to help find a cure for the disease that ails her, Cystic Fibrosis. Sicily’s songs are more often than not about living with CF, but not everyone would know that. “I think we’ve written a lot of songs about CF, but anybody can relate to the lyrics,” says her father who has been with numerous touring bands and often writes songs with Sicily. She has been singing since she was 2 years old, having the talent and the personality for it, her father said.
Another admirable fact about this young talent’s work is that every penny of every download goes directly to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation to help find a cure for CF. In spite of the hours of treatments, medicines, and all the other challenges that coincide with living with CF, Sicily is singing and overcoming all the things she has to do in hopes to inspire many of her generation.
