about

"Monica brings a unique blend of electronica/orgranic/rock/pop sounds to the Independent music scene. Monica’s mission is to reach the younger generation who are in need of encouragement and hope. Monica’s own life and journey to her faith has shaped her music and thirst to minister to young people through her lyrics". (nextwavefaithful)



"My main intent with my music is to entice a thirst for more, a thirst for the happiness that one needs to live in this world. When listening to my music I would hope that one would move beyond the beat and enter into the world of words . . . words of consolation, of comfort, and of encouragement. There are so many voices all around us distorting truth in every aspect of our culture, and I feel called to change that. Because I myself was once one of those impoverished youths, hypnotized by today's persuasive culture, I feel called through my gift of music to make a change and a responsibility to be that change. I feel the time is now and there is no better time."

Name: Monica Ursino
Birth Place: Boston, MA

Throughout high school Monica was never sure of what path she would choose. When it came to MUSIC, art, photography, writing, film, and even science, she was indecisive in where she wanted to be. While in college it was difficult choosing a major considering her many interests. And so, before finally deciding on Psychology, Monica began her freshman year as a theatre & film major. She began working as a production assistant and actor/extra on many films in and around the Boston area. That same year she obtained a position as a production manager and a leading role in an Independent production in her hometown of Boston. In addition, since Monica is first generation American and much of her family resides in Calabria, Italy, she travels there often and while vacationing there one summer she acquired a summer position as a DJ for a famous discotheque on the Ionian coast as well as a promoter for the european radio station Radio Clip.

Although, Monica graduated college with a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology and shortly after began working towards a master's degree in science, she soon realized that her love was for the arts, more specifically MUSIC. Monica began spending much of her time experimenting with an audio program until she was finally able to mix, edit, and record her own music. Monica felt that this would finally be her chance to get her talent heard by producers, who could then elaborate on her ideas. During this time her sister was doing her medical residency in Manhattan, and Monica found it to be the perfect opportunity to search for a job within the music industry. While at the Conan O'Brien show Monica met someone who recommended her to the Jimi Hendrix Electric Lady Studios in Greenwich Village. After an hour-long interview of pure connection, Monica was hired and began working for this historic recording studio. While working in NYC, Monica soon realized that it was time that she began working on her dream as an aspiring musician and continue where she left off. Soon enough she found her way back to "good ole" Boston where she would eventually record her first release THE WAY. Monica's music soon brought her to perform at World Youth Day in Germany and to many other countries.
