Perez Hilton Cover Competition – Katy Perry, The One that Got Away

Perez Hilton is holding another Cover Song Competition and this time it’s for “The One that Got Away” by Katy Perry. So of course I decided to put my own spin on the song and submit my video for the contest.

Perez Hilton Cover Competition – Adele, Someone Like You

Alright here’s a new video for everyone. Perez Hilton is holding another cover competition and this one is for one of my favorite songs off Adele’s sophomore album, 21, Someone Like You. I decided not to change it up too much. The song is just so beautiful on its own. I hope you like it. 🙂

Foster the People – Pumped Up Kicks [Cover] – Sarah Sellers

Alright everyone I just finished a new video and I’m super excited about it. The main reason I’m so excited about it is because I finally figured out how to use my GarageBand and iMovie! Hooray!! I still have a ton to learn but at least I’m on my way. So check it out and let me know what you think. I changed it up a bit to make it my own…I hope you like it.

Ellie Goulding & The Boom Blasters – New Music!

The summer is flying by and I’ve been busy having fun with different types of music and artists. Side note – it is hatch chili season (finally) and I’m definitely due for a food post soon so send me your ideas for hatch recipes so I can get to cooking!

I recently recorded a cover of Guns and Horses from one of my favorite artists, Ellie Goulding. The fabulous Jon C from the band Intake helped me out with his guitar and vocal skills so check it out!

On the opposite end of the music spectrum…I’ve been recording some fun pop tunes with producer and songwriter, Ben C Jones. I love writing and playing my own music, but every once in a while it’s fun to step outside the norm and have a little fun. Sometimes I feel like music is taken a little too seriously, so with that, here is a sample of my electro-pop side (any takers on some alter-ego pop names…let me know). 🙂

This wonderful organization asked me to participate in Help the States: BamaJam 2011.

iPod on Repeat…My Top 5 Artists

As always, things have been crazy and my absentee food posts only means one thing…I have been 100% entrenched in my music.
