I am a...
College senior, Musical Theatre major, Communication minor, proud choir geek, vocal schizophrenic, double Gemini, nature nerd, lactose-intolerant vegetarian, and starving artist in training.
Sometimes I think I'm living a life that doesn't fit me...or perhaps it's just that my personality is comprised of too many contradictions and oxymorons for me to be truly fulfilled. But I am finally starting to believe that I'm getting there, and that my music will help me get there faster--or at least appreciate the journey more thoroughly.
My sophomore album (in the works) will be called Right Now, But Not Yet. Release date TBA...in the meantime, you can pick up a copy of my first album, Not Otherwise Specified, on CD Baby or iTunes.
Bright Crayon Uprising!!
I'm currently working out promotion plans for my upcoming single, which, if you hadn't already guessed, will be "Disposable (The Crayon Song)." If you haven't heard "The Crayon Song" yet, I suggest you take a look at the video below. It's bold, it's blunt, and in my not-so-humble opinion, it flippin rocks.
Part of the process will involve making the live video as viral as possible, so as to generate buzz (and potentially funding) for the recording and, I'm hoping, a music video. That's where you come in.
I'm not asking you to post up a bulletin that says "Check out this video," because, let's be honest, that will arouse nobody's interest. Embedding the video on your page might get two or three, but I'm gonna aim even higher than that.
Instead, I'd like you guys to change your MySpace and/or Facebook status to: "[So and So] is impossible to tolerate, except for when you masturbate."
*Cue uncontrollable giggling*
And then when your friends comment on it (because they will), just direct them to the video URL (http://youtube.com/watch?v=foaW0sHWKYs). Then, if they like it, encourage them to do the same status change. Bonus points if they leave a comment (and a good rating) on the video page.
If I can crack 1,000 views on that video by May 31, everybody who participated will get a free mp3 of the single when it's released (make sure you send me a message or comment to let me know). And it'll be the best 21st birthday present I could ever want.
"Disposable (The Crayon Song)" LIVE!!
