24: What do you feel you’re bringing to the music world that separates you from other new artist?

24: Name a few artists that you would say influence you musically?
Sheena Murray: I always make sure I name India Arie first because she stays true to herself and the whole “Soul Movement” and her voice is amazing. But I would have to mention Toni Braxton, Anita Baker, and John Legend as well.
24: Tell about some the projects you’re currently working on?

24: At a time when the music industry is at an Up & Down state are you more looking to sign with an Indie Label or are you just focusing on making good music and making your buzz bigger right now?
Sheena Murray: I’m focusing on creating good music with the Indie label that I’m with, Reservoir Nine. I think that’s the easiest way to stay true to the music. I don’t want to be “Label-Made” or dance around on puppet strings because of the politics behind Major Labels, and I’m saying that with no offense to anyone.
24: What should the readers look out for from you in 2010?
