The message is to know that you don't have to be perfect; God made you the way you are for a reason. You are beautiful, you have something to say and you are worth it. Chelsea clearly loves our Lord and Savior Jesus with all of her heart and wants to celebrate that fact with every song. I have three young daughters and this is a nice upbeat pop country album with positive biblical messages which is a great alternative to Taylor Swift. Chelsea brings her walk with Jesus into her songwriting and this is the best album of this genre I've heard since Bethany Dillon's debut album, which puts her in great company in my opinion.

Chelsea Musick CD Release

In celebration of the release, Chelsea is hosting a free concert at Tabernacle United Methodist Church in Cape May on Nov. 3 beginning at 7 p.m.
“I just want the music to be heard,” she said. “I want to be able to share it.”
Chelsea released her first CD when she was just 15 years old.
“I’m 19 now, so this one is totally different,” she said.
However, one song on the album is the same — one of her favorites call “Keep Your Pants On.”
“I just loved it so much I had to put it on the new CD, too,” Chelsea said of the song. “I feel so many teens still think of love as a throw-away thing and it shouldn’t be. It’s something that should be held on to and you should keep your pants on until it’s time.”
She wrote the song about a conversation between a mother and daughter discussing abstinence when she was 15.
“I hope they (teenagers) can listen to the song and take it to heart,” she said.Another of her favorite songs on the new CD is the title track, “Perfectly You.”

'Musick' headlined for Warren White benefit
Concert is Saturday at Four Seasons

Washington Times-Herald
WASHINGTON — Youth supporting youth — it doesn’t get much better than that.
Seventeen-year-old country/Christian singer Chelsea Musick traveled to Washington this week from New Jersey to sing at a benefit Saturday for local boy Warren White, 7, who recently was diagnosed with an inoperable tumor on his brain stem. Musick was lured to the area by Darvin and Lori Yoder, of Yoder’s Furniture and Appliances, when Darvin read about her on Facebook. Through her agents, Darvin booked her to do the benefit concert to raise funds for Warren and his family.
“Parents should bring their kids,” Yoder said. “She definitely relates to kids.”
He said Musick will perform at 7 p.m. at 4 Seasons (the old Big Blue building) and will sign autographs at a meet-and-greet session afterward. Local band Rocky Rhoads also will perform. Tickets are $5 per person and available at the door only.
“There are no reserved seats,” Yoder said. “It’s first-come, first-served, so if you want a front row seat, get there early. The gates open at 4 (p.m.).”
He added that 100 percent of the proceeds from ticket sales and from food sold at the show will go to White. In addition, autographed sports memorabilia will be auctioned to raise funds for the Whites. Yoder has obtained North Carolina items signed by Roy Williams; Bob Knight will autograph a basketball personally to the ball’s winner; and there are objects from Butler and other places.
Although she now lives in New Jersey, Musick was born in Tennessee and just released a self-titled CD, which is her first.
“It’s cool because now I can say I’m a country singer from Tennessee,” she said with a laugh, adding that many of her songs have a Christian overtone.
Musick wrote eight of the 11 songs on the album herself. Her main hit off the CD is called “Keep Your Pants On,” a song she co-wrote with “two guys from Nashville” that urges young people to be responsible in their decision-making. She said it’s blunt and to the point, and sometimes people might be taken aback by it, but she writes her songs to be positive inspirations for today’s youth — “first and foremost just believing in yourself.”
“Hopefully they listen and get it through their heads,” she said. “The reaction is funny (to the song lyrics), but it’s really, really cool to see people are reacting to it and are listening to it.”
Currently, Musick is unsigned.
“There’s no label behind me yet,” she said. “Everybody wants you to change when you sign, but it’s important to stay true to yourself. It’s cool to be able to tell people I’m doing it on my own.”
The teen musician said she’s not on tour the way most people think of band tours. There’s no bus and no band. She plays guitar and sings, but she said her plan is to get a band together in the future.
“Right now it’s all on God’s timing,” Musick said. “I’m just doing as many shows as I can. I’m honored to be in Indiana. Most of my shows are on the east coast. We’re gonna make a lot of money for Warren. I met him today. He’s such an awesome kid.”
White was diagnosed in late September with Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Gilomia (DIPG). The only treatments for the benign tumor are oral medications and radiation, which can only prolong his life. His family describes him as a typical 7-year-old who likes to play outdoors, enjoys sports, video games, board games, and going to the movies. He likes animals and music, and his favorite performers are Taylor Swift, Tom Petty and Trace Adkins.

WASHINGTON, IND. (WTHI) - A southern Indiana community is pulling out the stops to help a child recently diagnosed with a brain tumor.
Students at Washington High School got a sample of a benefit show set for this weekend to help out 7-yearold Warren White.
The young Washington boy was recently diagnosed with a brain tumor.
Chelsea Musick will headline the benefit event.
"It's sad we have to get together for something so upsetting and it's a shame for him and his family, but I'm excited too because we're going to raise money for him," said Music. "Hopefully, we'll get a lot raised. It's going to benefit him."
All proceeds from the Chelsea Music Show will go to the Warren White fund.
The event will be held at the Four Seasons on State Street in Washington, Saturday night.

Teen competes in CMT online talent contest

Not only is music in her last name, song-writing and melody-making is in Chelsea Musick's soul.
South Jersey might not be the country genre headquarters of the United States, but Monroe Township's Musick can be heard in Country Music Television's online talent competition.
The self-taught guitar and piano player must rely on her family and 2,400 MySpace fans to pull her through six rounds of online voting.
Musick, 16, made it to the third round in CMT's Music City Madness, a national online talent search. She outshone 500 applicants who submitted videos to the Web site in July to be considered for the competition.
"We are looking for original, unsigned talent," said Amanda Murphy, manager of corporate communications at CMT.
When Musick was nine years old, she was a finalist in NBC's "America's Most Talented Kids," and has been practicing vocals, instruments, and song writing ever since.
As a home-schooled student, she finishes her daily studies in about four hours and dedicates the rest of the day to practicing.
"If I am sitting at home doing history, and I have a song line pop in my head, I can just pause the (lesson) tape really quick and write it down," she said.
She has written or co-written all of the songs she hopes to include on her first album, but currently lack the funds to start recording.
According to Murphy, the winner of all six rounds will receive an all-expense paid trip to Nashville to record an episode of CMT's online performance series "Unplugged at Studio 330." The grand prize winner, announced on Dec. 16, will also meet with Warner Brothers Records and get advice from country music star Randy Travis.
"I do need a lot of votes," Musick said.
In the current round of the competition, Musick's self-written "Go Sing the Blues" is up against Toby Bradley's "Bill Mack Won't Play my Track." Third-round voting ends on Nov. 17, when either Musick or Bradley will move on to the fourth leg of the competition.
"It's really hard, though," Musick said of the competition. "People are really talented.
