Today in the Spotlight: Andee Tophat – He will be singing at CharitySl.nl 2024.
How did you start singing and how did you get involved in Second Life? What does singing mean to you?
“I started playing the piano when I was 6 – more just bashing the keys than actually playing, haha! But I began writing songs in my teens. Although I can’t read music, I’ve written over 150 songs since 1986. It’s always been my way of expressing myself. Singing means a lot to me because it’s a wonderful way to connect with people. It allows me to do something I enjoy, and hopefully, I can bring them some joy in the process.”
What is your favorite song from your list and why?
“My current favorite is a song called ‘I Need You Now.’ It’s really special to me because my 18-year-old daughter sings on the backing track. It’s such a meaningful experience to create music together with her, and that gives the song an extra layer of significance.”
What made you want to participate in CharitySl.nl for KiKa (Dutch Children Cancer-free Foundation)?
“Any charity that helps children is important, and KiKa is no exception. Children who overcome cancer deserve all the support they can get. I can’t think of a better way to help than through music. It feels great to contribute to such an important cause.”
What message do you hope to convey with your music in relation to this charity?
“If music can bring people together in joy, why can’t it also bring them together to support a good cause? I hope my music inspires people to get involved with KiKa, to help the children who need it most. Do it for the children!”
Thank you so much for your time and your wonderful contribution to KiKa! We wish you continued success with your music and the great work you’re doing.
