Despite any obstacles, Shantal and Tiziana find a sense of comfort, safety, and belonging with one another. “Bette said it best to Tina when she said, ‘It feels like I am coming home,’” says Shantal. “We accept each other not just for the best in us, but for the worst, just like a family.”

"5. When did you know music is what you wanted to do?
Always, music is like breathing. It's part of our souls. For Tizy, listening to music and songwriting is a second limb. It’s her heart and her safety. It’s been therapeutic to create music
for the past year and she continues to fall more in love with music as she discovers her own
sound. It is a way for her to express herself or get lost in a story. For Shantal, playing guitar
or piano is her way of escaping and having her own little alone time. Not a day goes by
that either don’t listen to music."

BIOGRAPHY
A little bit about Herstory
Tiziana was born in the United States but raised in Uruguay from an early age. She is half Uruguayan half Ecuadorian. She had a very difficult upbringing and music has always been her sanity and safety. Her songwriting is inspired by her life, everything she and the people around her have been through/overcome. She is not afraid to be who she is and speak about what she believes in especially LGBTQ rights. She can write songs in the blink of an eye.
Shantal was born and raised in the Dominican Republic. In her freshman year of high school, she would spend most afternoons alone at home. Instead of doing nothing, she taught herself, with the help of youtube, how to play guitar and piano. She also dabbles into percussion instruments. Music and melodies come to her like second nature, lyrics not so much.
Shantal and Tiziana met back in college, they fell in love instantly. Tiziana has always been shy about her singing. Shantal pushed her out of her shell and got her to sing with her whenever she got the chance. They only sang covers of other artist's songs for years. Shantal arranged an original piano piece and Tiziana decided to write to it. Shantal knew that Tiziana wrote songs, but in the time they had together as a couple she had never heard any of them. Once she heard what Tiziana had written, she was hooked, and without planning it, Herstory was born. Shantal composes/produces the songs and Tiziana is the songwriter.
