biography

Childhood and youth

Stacie Orrico was born in Seattle to Christian parents with u. a. Italian and German roots born. Orrico has an older brother, an older sister and two twin siblings.

Both parents traveled a lot, also to do missionary work. Because of this and because the family often moved for professional reasons, Stacie Orrico visited the Ukraine and Hawaii , among others . Currently (as of July 2008) she lives in Seattle again. She grew up listening to a wide variety of musical styles and was a member of the choir. Many Christian songs were sung in the family. Her personal tastes tended towards R&B and soul , which is why she shows influences from Ella Fitzgerald , Whitney Houston and Lauryn Hill . She has been playing the piano since she was a child . At the age of six she wrote her first song called Always Answer .

Music career

Stacie Orrico's career began at the age of twelve at the Christian music festival Praise in the Rockies in Colorado . She accidentally signed up for the talent contest and won. Fore Front Records then offered her a record deal, which she accepted.

The first single was called Stuck , which made it into the top 5 charts in Germany, among others.
