2013 Memorial Cup and Melissa "HunnyB" Veszi - American and Canadian Ant...

I had the pleasure of singing a second time at the Memorial Cup. Here is me singing both anthems, first the Canadian and then the American anthem.

Memorial Cup Part 1 - Behind the Scenes

Performing Friday night at the opening ceremonies of the Memorial Cup was such an honor. I made sure I was there early so that there would be no last minute surprises. I had my mom there with me, or should I say my momager, my step father, or should I say my camera man, and my step brother, or should I say my bodyguard. Anyway, who says family can't be those things right? Hey, they got free tickets so I made them work for it. Everyone running the Memorial Cup was so nice and extremely accommodating, except for this one guy who wouldn't let us through the curtain when it was time for me to sing. Ummm... hello there is only one way to the entrance sir! If there is no anthem singer then you can be the one to explain yourself to the organization. Needless to say he had no choice but to let us pass. My mom (momager) came with her pitch pipe so that I would be able to hit my first note right on pitch. It was so handy the whole evening, until I went onstage. Between the crowd and the DJ music I lost my note. Oh well momager, we tried. I started a little lower then I was supposed to, but hey it happens and I am a professional singer with a big range, so I still sang it like a champ. It was amazing being out on the ice in front of all those people. When the crowd started to cheer it was such a rush, even though I couldn't hear myself sing by the end of it. Thank goodness for my ear plugs and my keen concentration or the end would have been a disaster, but it wasn't. The performance felt fantastic and I left feeling like I scored the first goal! Gooooooo HunnyB! Watch the behind the scenes here: Copy the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5WlF4LxRto&feature=youtu.be

One drop at a time!

So today was another day of greatness. I say this because there are so many positives happening. Yes, I am expecting my first child, but the great thing is I have more time to really work at my business HunnyB Entertainment. People ask me, well what about your career? I say to them, what do you mean what about my career? I am still full force ahead; if anything I feel much more creative. I even feel more driven, because now I have someone else to think about. Today my day started with a great vocal lesson. The lesson was focused on me singing the National anthems. As some of you may already know, I was asked to sing the anthems at the Memorial Cup. This Friday, May 17th I sing the Canadian anthem at the opening ceremonies. Then on May 22nd, I have to sing both the American and the Canadian anthems. My vocal coach loved how they were sounding but decided she wanted me to start the Canadian anthem higher, because I wasn't showing off my money note. I was like, okay my money note huh, well hopefully I hit it because it will be more like my booooo note and my unemployment note if I miss! Of course I am a singer who loves a challenge and ended up hitting that money note no problem. Let's just say I am a professional. Now let's see what happens on the day, but I have confidence that I will knock their socks off! Then my producer, NHD, sent me the mastered version of our newest record called "Another Girl." Our mastering engineer said it was our best produced track to date which makes me very excited as I am sending it to an A&R at RCA records. These little steps I call drops in my bucket. Even though they may not catapult me to my ultimate dream...they are steps towards it and I am truly enjoying the process and love the positivity. Love HunnyB
