| Q and A with country artist, actress Jana Kramer | |
| http://www.thetowerlight.com/files/2013/03/CountryConcert001-HazlettMurphy.jpg | |
| Before country artist and actress Jana Kramer performed at the | |
| Campus Activities Board�s annual Country Concert Friday, March | |
| 8, The Towerlight sat down with Kramer to discuss her musical | |
| endeavors, influences and plans for the future. | |
| The Towerlight: Recently, your songs �Whiskey� and �Why Ya | |
| Wanna� have topped the country charts and you won �Top New | |
| Female Artist� at the Academy of Country Music Awards. What has | |
| this last year been like for you? | |
| Jana Kramer: Well, it�s been amazing, with the ACM nomination | |
| and then best new female, and then being able to get ready for | |
| two big tours�with Darius Rucker and then Blake Shelton�so it�s | |
| been great. Then of course getting engaged, that�s been the | |
| cherry on top. | |
| TL: What�s it been like balancing an acting and a singing | |
| career? | |
| JK: I�m just focusing on acting at the moment. I did my last | |
| project in March, it was called �Heart of the Country.� Honestly | |
| I tried to juggle both and I was exhausted. And I knew that I | |
| just wanted to focus on the music, and I barely have one day | |
| off. So it�s hard to try and juggle but in a couple years from | |
| now maybe I�ll try to. | |
| TL: Did working on One Tree Hill present you with any musical | |
| opportunities? | |
| JK: That�s how I got the courage to do my music. I knew that the | |
| show offered a lot of opportunity for new artists and so I was | |
| writing a bunch and going to Nashville so I gave some songs to | |
| the creator of One Tree Hill and was like �Look, I wantto do | |
| music after the show is over, take a listen.� And that�s when | |
| they turned my character into a singer. It was awesome. I was | |
| like �Yay, I don�t suck, this is awesome.� | |
| TL: Did you always know you wanted to do country music? | |
| JK: I grew up singing country music. Since I was a little kid I | |
| was singing country music. People are always like, �You�re from | |
| Michigan, how are you singing country music?� but that�s all I | |
| listen to. I have a country accent because that�s how I am. I | |
| would sing an Adele song with a country accent. | |
| TL: Where do you get your inspiration? | |
| JK: I grew up listening to Patsy Cline and Johnny Cash and June | |
| Carter, so those are my loves. I like the old time country. | |
| TL: Is there a lot of support in your hometown for your music? | |
| JK: For sure, all my friends and family support me and they all | |
| listen to country music too. | |
| TL: What�s it like to have fans lined up waiting to see you in | |
| concert? | |
| JK: It�s weird but it definitely helps me keep going. Whenever I | |
| doubt myself or am like �what am I doing?� Whenever I am having | |
| a hard time believing in what I am doing, I go on Twitter or | |
| show up to shows like this where people are really excited and | |
| I�m like �Yay, people actually do want to come out an see me.� | |
| TL: Do you prefer smaller venues, like at Towson? | |
| JK: I love smaller venues because the fans are closer up to the | |
| stage and there�s a different energy. It�s funny, Brantley | |
| [Gilbert, her fianc�] has come on a few gigs with me and he�s | |
| like �I miss doing the bar scenes� and I�m like �I know.� | |
| Because you can just have so much more fun rather than like | |
| being in a stadium or an arena where everyone is so far away. | |
| TL: Are there any shows that are really memorable to you? | |
| JK: There�s been a bunch, I can�t even, there�s so many that | |
| I�ve walked away from saying, �That was such a great show.� I | |
| just had one the other night in my hometown in Detroit so that | |
| was fun. | |
| TL: Do you have any pre-show rituals you do with your band? | |
| JK: Well we do a little prayer and a chant. We do a serious | |
| prayer and then we end it on a funny note. | |
| TL: Who is your dream artist to collaborate with? | |
| JK: Well I would love to go on Garth Brooks tour, Garth Brooks | |
| has a tour coming up. I would love to go out with him, I love | |
| him. But I would love to collaborate with Adam Levine. I think | |
| it would be a really cool little mixture. | |
| TL: At the end of the day, who do you want to be known as? | |
| JK: I want to be known as a successful, family country artist. I | |
| want to have a family and I want to be a country artist. | |
