Growing up I never thought I’d love anything enough to have it permanently inked on my body… then I started working in the entertainment industry. My thoughts shifted to, “do I love anything enough to have it permanently inked on my body?” I kept that question in the back of my mind for years and … Continue reading

Coincidence or Not?
You hear the cliche “EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON” whenever things don’t work out in your favor, and if you’re like me, sometimes you want to punch the person who says this to you in the face. Now I’m not by any means religious, and my guess is as good as anyone else’s when I … Continue reading
Top Albums of 2012
This was an AMAZING year for music, so when I was compiling the list of my top album picks of the year, it was tougher than you’d think! Choosing 20 seemed like it was too much, and narrowing it down to 12 was stressing me out, so I went with 16 since it’s right in … Continue reading
Career Highlight? One Republic!
Jingle Ball is one of the biggest events of the year and I’m so lucky I was able to get a spot on the red carpet to interview some of the biggest names in music– It was a night I will never forget. To say I was excited to meet and interview One Republic … Continue reading
Tyler Ward & Company– Wudd up!
I’m SO happy I’ve been able to travel so much the last few months, and after spending a few days in Florida covering events, my adventures took me to Boston with Tyler Ward & Company. It’s been awhile since I’ve done a vlog, so I thought it was about time I pick up my camera … Continue reading

It started off bigger than I could have imagined when Epic Records rep Scott Dimig hooked me up yet again with an interview I never expected to book. I’ve spent enough time around bands to be comfortable talking to anyone, and I’m … Continue reading
Anberlin: Vital– It’s About Time!
There’s something so nostalgic about hearing an old song that takes you away from the present and takes you back to a significant time and place from your past. Granted that time and place may not always be filled with happiness, but nonetheless it’s still nostalgic. For me, recently hearing “Paperthin Hymn” by Anberlin was … Continue reading
Ed Sheeran, Where Have You Been All My Life?!
If you haven’t heard of Ed Sheeran by now, you’re living under a rock in the middle of a desert. The 21-year-old English singer/songwriter achieved worldwide success (he’s sold more than 4 million albums and performed at the closing ceremonies of the 2012 Olympics in London!), but has barely scratched the surface here in the United States. … Continue reading
Andy Grammer Jumps On The Train
I’ve had the great pleasure of seeing Andy Grammer perform several times since we first met in May 2011, and each time he continues to blow me away with his talent, showmanship, and pretty impressive beatboxing skills. His debut album and first single “Keep Your Head Up” hadn’t even dropped yet, so nobody really knew who he was. … Continue reading
Mat Kearney’s Alter Ego Would Be…
Mat Kearney I’ve been anticipating this interview with Mat Kearney for weeks! His new album was in heavy rotation for most of my summer, so I was excited to not only see him perform at the St. Augustine Amphitheater, but also have a few minutes of his time for an interview. Mat is a nice guy … Continue reading
