“It’s not always going to be easy, but even so, everything still continues to be beautiful.”
- Chloe Key
Born and raised in a family of artists, Chloe Key is a 18-year-old musician who’s always had a breathtakingly creative intuition, and an unstoppable passion for speaking through melodies.
When Chloe was 11 years old, she wrote her first song Not The Same (The Rain Song) alongside her father in her grandparents' condominium. When she turned 13, she wrote and recorded her second song Only One during the pandemic. Chloe also attended summer camp at Interlochen Center for the Arts as a singer-songwriter, and not too long after, released her debut album: Self-Tied.

Karen Von Bernewitz Memorial Scholarship
The truth is, I did not realize the fine arts were essential until I began falling apart without them. That may sound dramatic, but imagine being so full of thoughts and emotions that you can barely breathe, then, one day, someone hands you a microphone, and suddenly everything makes sense. I have struggled with performance and social anxiety since I was young, but singing has always helped me cope in ways nothing else could. It became the way I communicated the melodies constantly echoing in my head. As I began writing songs, songs about the emotions I grew up in, the memories that haunted me, and the tiny moments that kept me alive, something shifted. Music gave me a way to turn my inner world into something real, something that could be shared.
Music has taught me far more than just chord progressions or how to navigate a digital audio workstation. It taught me how to tell the truth. And the truth is this: without melodies, I might never have understood myself, let alone found the courage to pursue a future where my voice truly matters.
Music became my sanctuary. My rebellion. My comfort. It was where I turned the chaos in my life, in my original singles: 'Sara', 'Never Stop Saying I Love You', 'Fault', and my debut album 'Self-Tied' as I began to create a name for myself. It did not solely teach me how to create art, it taught me how to survive.
If I am awarded this scholarship, I will use it to continue chasing that survival and transformation at Berklee College of Music, where I will be majoring in Songwriting and Music Production. I want to grow not only as a singer and songwriter, but as a storyteller—someone who turns truth into resonance. At Berklee, I will be surrounded by people who speak the same language as I do, and I want to learn from those who are louder, weirder, and braver than I am, and then pass on what I have learned to others, inspiring them to follow their own paths.
Because this journey is not just about me. It is about the kids like me—the ones who sit in classrooms feeling like they do not belong anywhere except inside a blank notebook or between the comfort of their headphones in isolation. I want to show up for the people who have not yet found the courage to speak. I want to help them realize that their stories are worth so much more than what they can imagine. Music saved me, and I intend to spend my life helping it save others, too.
