A Deep Dive into ‘Project Red Notebook’ <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Titan senior Mia Humphrey is not just a singer; she is a storyteller, and her Project Red Notebook<\/em> EP released November 14th is not just a collection of songs; it is a collection of journal entries. Eighteen minutes and 59 seconds of deeply personal, relatable accounts of love, loss, bliss, and remembrance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Humphrey began her musical journey in sixth grade. It was not until her childhood friend, T.C. senior Ella Kahl, introduced her to Taylor Swift\u2019s musical masterpiece 1989<\/em> that Humphrey realized singing and songwriting is what she wanted to do. Humphrey said when she listened to Swift\u2019s debut pop album, she was \u201cin absolute awe.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throughout middle school, Humphrey began writing songs in a red composition notebook and performed them for the first time in eighth grade for eight of her closest friends. She called the mini concert Project Red Notebook, hence the name of her EP. \u201cI just kept writing songs,\u201d said Humphrey, \u201c I think I\u2019ve done three Project Red Notebooks.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Humphrey has three different red composition books from the various seasons of her life. \u201dAfter Midnight\u201d was a song that Humphrey performed at First Night’s Battle of the Local Stars freshman year from the first Project Red Notebook. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Freshman and sophomore year of high school, she competed in First Night Alexandria\u2019s Battle of the Local Stars where she placed second two years in a row. She said \u201cmore people became hip to the fact that I write music because I\u2019ve always been pretty private about it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
