You Can Catch Me If You Try

Jamie Nichole

You can definitely tell from the first note that comes out of Jamie Nichole’s mouth that she was influenced by Jewel. Not necessarily a bad thing. It would be if she was forcing it, but I don’t think she is. I think she really just sounds a lot like her, probably due to years of playing and playing and playing again jewel cd’s. It happens. But I mean, who doesn’t love Jewel? And her voice may not be that unique, but her songs are. I think her next cd will be the one to hear, and I really love Catch Me. Oh, and P.S. I found her through MojoStockIndy, which is an festival I went to last weekend where I also saw Midwest Hype whom I love. I also love that one of her influences is Patty Griffin who I’ve been meaning to talk about. Why did I only discover her a couple months ago? Where has she been all my life? She has probably influenced most of the female singers I love and for some reason I’ve never heard about her. If you haven’t heard her either you need to check her out because she is ridiculously talented.

So that’s why Jayson keeps bugging me about the Verizon droid phone!!! Mozella’s song Magic is the song on the commercial for the droid phone. I’m sure you’ll recognize it when you hear it. But her other songs are just as magical. Haha magical. No but seriously, I really like her stuff. She could definitely [...]

I Will – The Beatles

Yes, I am a CW fan if you didn’t know. And I am not ashamed to say it, because their shows have THE BEST music. Besides the fantastic music on One Tree Hill, their new show Life Unexpected is not only super cute and puts a smile on my face every week, but the music is [...]

I had a really emotionally bad day yesterday. I don’t want to get into all the pitiful details, but to summarize, I went in for my first dress fitting for my bridal gown and it didn’t go as planned. I just didn’t look the way I wanted. Not even close. This all happened in the [...]

Taylor Swift Kicks Music Butt!!

I realize I may sound extremely girly by saying this, but I feel it appropriate after The Grammy’s last night where Taylor Swift won the most honored award: Album of The Year. It is true Taylor Swift doesn’t sing the best live. Not many people do. And let’s face it, she is 18 or 19, just [...]

I guess I’ve been on a male music kick lately which is pretty unusual for me. One that I absolutely love is City and Colour. I found him last year and didn’t blog about him I guess because he’s not really that “new.” But he’s really too good not to mention. Dallas Green, a.k.a City of Colour, [...]

So you’ve probably noticed I haven’t written a post in a while. I’ve been a bad girl. I could give you a hundred excuses  as to why, but really I just got lazy. So in going along with New Year’s resolutions, I vow to be “not so lazy” with my blog this year. [...]

I think I am probably the last person to hear this song, but man it is good. So of course the song, I and love and you, was on One Tree Hill this past week and it amazes me how important music is to a show or movie. It can completely change an episode and this [...]

A friend of mine recently got married, and her mom was telling me how she thought her daughter would be sad when it was all over. All the planning would be done, all the money spent, all the fun had and it would be over just like that. I thought that was the most ridiculous [...]
