PORCELAN Sets the Record Straight in “Act Out”

While you are home sequestering or self-isolating, this is a good time to listen to some self-empowering and life-affirming music. Staying informed about the coronavirus is essential, but you cannot spend your day only listening to health updates. Relax, enjoy some good music from some up-and-coming musical artists.

One of those artists is PORCELAN. Based in Tennessee, PORCELAN’s parents were musicians and exposed her to music early in life. An elementary teacher recognized her talent, spurring PORCELAN to perform in school musicals. PORCELAN also discovered that she was good at writing poetry which gave her the impetus to combine songwriting with her vocal talents.

In keeping with that momentum, PORCELAN focused on building her reputation in music circles, doing everything from appearing on BET’s “106th & Park,” collaborating on material with super-producer Timbaland, opening for Tank and gaining invaluable performance experience via a three-month tour of China with a cover band. “Doing show bands is totally different from being an original artist, so I had to learn how to entertain in that realm. Even though I was new to it, I started being around a lot of seasoned people who showed me the ropes,” explained PORCELAN.

PORCELAN’s single “Lois Lane” landed her single in Billboard R&B chart’s top 15. Her new follow-up single “Act Out” speaks to a woman’s frustration with her man’s infidelity. “I wanted to capture the intensity of how broken she was from her past and how he came along and made her think he was different, all while he was playing games the entire time,” PORCELAN adds.

Fashion Reverie was fortunate to speak with PORCELAN before “ACT OUT’s” release on February 28. See video interview below:
