 PutHimFirst.com 10 ?'s with Siobhan Duran



Siobhan Duran is the first female artist on the PHF Productions record label. She released her five song EP in 2009 and appeared on “The PHF Compilation…7 Times I Fall” compilation with her song “You Love Me” in 2007. Her style is a mix of Worship and Contemporary with a touch of R & B



 PHF: PHF Productions just released your first five song EP. Tell us about the songs on there and what they mean to you.

 Siobhan: “You Love Me” is a song about my past, something I went through that was a very, very hard time in my life. It was a turning point for me and it’s very close to my heart.

“Dying Inside” is very similar to “You Love Me". AZA came up with the concept behind it and he raps on the song.

“So Young” was birthed out of a dream I had of a younger girl and it broke me inside. It was a dream that I believe God gave me so I can use it to reach girls in that situation. “Another Kind Of Love” is just a love song to God, Pure Worship!

I love “Open the Door of My Heart”. It’s a cry out to God. We ignore Him sometimes, even when we know He has a plan for us or wants us to do something OR not to do something. We ignore Him out of fear, laziness, insecurities. But this song is simply saying I open the door of my heart!

 PHF:When did you first know you wanted to be a singer?

 Siobhan:: I knew I wanted to sing since I was a little kid. I used to listen to Mariah Carey, SWV, Lauryn Hill, just to name a few. I would always try to harmonize with them and stuff!

 PHF: You’re known for changing your hair style and color quite often. Is there any color or style you wouldn’t do?

 Siobhan:Wow HAHA!! OK I will never ever ever ever do a mo-hawk or fro-hawk. I’ll leave that to the boys!!

(Personally, we think Siobhan would look great with a Neon Green Fro-Hawk.)

 PHF: You’ve been asked to sing the National Anthem at a few different boxing events. What's it like to sing in the ring?

 Siobhan: It’s one of the funnest things I’ve ever done. The atmosphere is exciting and everyone has such a respect for America. You can hear it in the energy of their voices! For me it’s very emotional! I didn’t think I would feel choked up but I was!

 PHF: Will we ever hear Siobhan rap on a song?

 Siobhan: No WAY! I only rap to Jimmy Needham songs!! HAHA

 PHF: You’re involved with the worship team at your church, Victory Outreach Albuquerque. What does it take to maintain a passion for worship?

 Siobhan: That’s a really good question! Worship comes natural for me so it would be hard to lose passion for worship. Sometimes I get caught up in the music, BUT I come back to worship from my heart very quickly. I honestly remind myself of this scripture almost daily! Especially before I lead people into worship. I can’t forget this or God will not be glorified!

John 4:23-24, "It's who you are and the way you live that count before God. Your worship must engage your spirit in the pursuit of truth. That's the kind of people the Father is out looking for: those who are simply and honestly themselves before him in their worship. God is sheer being itself—Spirit. Those who worship him must do it out of their very being, their spirits, their true selves, in adoration." (The Message Bible)

 PHF: If you could choose any song to cover on your next album, what would it be?

 Siobhan: Natalie Grant “The Real Me” –OR- Jimmy Needham “Hurricane”.

 PHF: Favorite Restaurant? Favorite Number? Favorite Color? And Favorite Daughter? (ha jk on the last one)

 Siobhan: Buffalo Wild Wings! - 0 - GREEN! - And both of my daughters are AMAZING!!! HAHAHA

 PHF: Tell us something your fans may not know about you.

 Siobhan: I’m extremely shy but I try to fake it most times. I try really hard to talk with people but it can be very uncomfortable, even with close friends sometimes! And I’m not very sensitive. The Lord knows my heart! Ha!

 PHF: What do you do to start each day?

 Siobhan: I start MOST days off with worship music. If I can’t listen to it I’m singing it. It really helps me to focus on God first thing in the AM!

(In other words, her answer is “PUT HIM FIRST”, ha.)
