The Long Bit:Born & raised in Wichita Falls, TX, Ciera Kensington grew up with music. She started singing at a young age and her grandmother passed down her guitar to her on her 13th birthday. She took lessons for six months and then continued to learn by teaching herself some of her favorite songs. During this time, she also started writing her own songs.

After graduation, Ciera went to Dallas Baptist University to major in Christian Studies/Music Ministry. Feeling like she couldn’t pursue music in a college atmosphere, Ciera left after one year with a plan to move to Nashville.

During her year after leaving, Ciera released her first four songs titled “Storybook EP” on iTunes. “Storybook” was later re-released on Noisetrade with a bonus track, where it was featured on New & Notable.Shortly after moving to the Nashville area, Ciera had her second 4 song release in 2013 “Thieves & Dreams (acoustic) sampler” as a Noisetrade exclusive. A song from that release (“Sailing”) was the soundtrack for the Ruche Spring Lookbook Ad. “Little Things” was picked up for rotation on select UK radio stations, along with some unsigned artist streaming stations in the US.

She also did a limited run on Brite Revolution with all of her music available for free.
