Biography

Heather Dee Perry, the daughter of and Debra Ann (Jennings)Perry, James Henry Perry Jr, was born breech (feet first)in Alexandria Virginia and raised in Stafford County, Virginia. Her Middle name "Dee" taken from her Grandmother, Deloris. Growing up in Stafford she had a southern mind but was Motivated to accomplish "world support", She directed Her energy to the love of music, all cultural dance, voice, acting, theatre arts, and creative visualization to move people in a positive and energetic way of seeking the benefits in creative visual as well as speaking Her mind through movement.

Heather has two younger brothers, Jimmy Joe Justin Perry, and Jesse James Perry who are also visual artists as well.

Five days after she graduated high school, she was able to study more about the world traveling and entertaining on cruise ships. 150 countries later and so much knowledge of life in each country, Heather decided to speak for things she felt needed to be said. Her mind was put to work as a lyricist and to keep positive words in the "not so positive" lyric based world of music in the start of the 2000's years.
As the war goes on, and our leaders are fighting over oil, and forgetting about just the basics of everyday life, wasting all their energy fighting over a cause of power between two men, while in the real world the "working class" are seeing a drop in everything, work, gas, energy, and mainly "food". This Sparked a very big concern with Heather, since she has lived within 3rd World countries. Underdog places such as Haiti, The Kogis in Columbia, The US American Indians, Indigenous peoples and also nations that have been so governed they have yet to see a meal in years and are being pushed into non-exsistance, is the channel which she enjoys speaking for. Living also in the "lap of luxury", touring the world on 5 star cruise ships, and private jet planes 3 to 4 times a week, has really put her mind to the test of what we can actually do with our energy and funds if we want to help anyone in the world.
While living in the Bahamas, she found solitude in the ocean and viewed such a place as a harmonious getaway for people around the world. The Music is what really caught peoples attention, reggae, ska, dancehall, with lyrics that flipped peoples mind and made them dance at the same time. With attitude, the smooth rap style vibe in her voice, and world pop visual, she found a calling to be a mediator for the people who are never heard, to the everyday chatter among Borders fighting for territory.
Her Objective is to bring the "New World", 3rd World, and The "Rich World" as together as they can, and to visually help the youth and the wisdom come together for a greater world balance through music.
