My Story
Felicia Berrier is a nineteen year old singer, songwriter, musician, producer, and performer from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Her music can best be described as "putting Jesus in the center of bedroom pop."

Felicia's original songs have reached music platforms like iTunes, Spotify, Google Play, and more. Felicia's music features acoustic piano and guitar, live ukulele and bass, full orchestras, and unique eccentric drums. All of Felicia's music is written and recorded in the comfort of her own home and her college dorm room.
Felicia started singing on her backyard porch at age 2 and hasn't stopped singing since.
After her younger brother expressed interest in learning how to play piano, Felicia decided she had to be the better, older sibling and asked to start piano lessons too. Felicia started private vocal and piano lessons starting at age 5 and still trains with numerous vocal coaches today. .She started songwriting at age 12 when learning how to use live loops in GarageBand with her older brother. She transitioned to producing her music in Logic Pro X in 2019.

Felicia is currently studying Music Education at a Christian University near where she lives in Philadelphia.
Felicia hopes to open her own performing arts center and continue to release self produced singles. She hopes to teach in a school after earning her undergraduate degree and earn her master's degree while teaching. After earning her master's degree, she hopes to start a performing arts company that gives private vocal and instrumental lessons, teaches several styles of dance, and puts on theatrical productions.
In 2022, Felicia announced that she would be making her music focused more on Jesus.
In a lengthy Instagram post, Felicia described her journey as a Christian making secular music and illustrated her goal to bring the two aspects of her life together through her art. The music she's been making hasn't changed a bit, but rather, the mindset behind it has changed completely. She now aims not to just make music reflecting on past events in her life, but to convey that these events and experiences are given to her by God. Thus, Felicia's journey as a Christian making secular music started and has so far received praise from peers and the public. Felicia aims to follow the great commission by proving that our lives are only what they are because of Him through her incredibly unique music and art.
