Also, don't forget to check out my "Thomas's Song" Music Video Pledge Project page and donate! If you pledge, you get awesome prizes like a private living room concert, a song written for you, a youtube video dedicated to you and a chance to actually BE in the video!!
I've finally launched my pledgemusic project and I couldn't be more excited! I've chosen to make a music video for a song, Thomas's Song, off of my debut album! Pledgemusic.com is a website that allows artists like me to fund projects such as creating an album, organizing a tour...or making a music video (!) independently. By pledging on a certain project, you are helping to fund that project, and if you pledge, you get awesome rewards! For my project, Thomas's Song the Music Video, you can pledge anywhere between $15 and $1,000 and when you pledge, you will receive awesome prizes like a song of your choice dedicated to you on Youtube, a private house concert, or a chance to actually BE in the video!
I've also decided to donate 10% of my project's proceeds to the Swachman-Diamond Syndrome Foundation in the hopes of finding a cure for SDS! I not only want to help myself in finding a cure for my disease, but I want to help the many others like me who battle with SDS every day.
I hope that you will join me in making this music video by pledging and please share this project with your family and friends!
Thank you all for your continuous support already and I can't wait to see how this project turns out!
So it's past the time for Christmas spirit, but if anyone still misses Christmas, here's a new song to listen to! Deck the Halls from ION's "A Christmas Kiss" is now available on itunes!!

New video out on Youtube! This time a live performance of Tina Turner's song "Proud Mary"! Probably the most fun I've ever had on stage. Performed at the annual Shwachman-Diamond Syndrome Foundation Fundraiser -AKA the Barndance. With over 200 people sweaty and dancing in our barn this year, we raised over $50,000!! Thank you so much to everyone who contributed and I'm sorry I'm posting this video so late!
So, I'm sorry I haven't gotten to update earlier! Due to Hurricane Sandy, I haven't had internet for the past 5 days... But anyway, Thomas's Song, from my EP, made its first appearance on the radio this past Tuesday! It was the best night of the year so far! I cried and squealed for about a good 5 minutes straight. I also had some of my best friends over to help celebrate with me =)
Thank you to Irene Collins for giving me a chance on 92.5 The River's homegrown showcase and thank you to my friends and everyone who listened on Tuesday for the support! I love all of you for that and I'm so grateful!
