NBC's STAR TOMORROW..the FINAL 5...the LAST week .


3 months ago I started the crazy adventure called Star Tomorrow. It's NBC and David Foster's big experiment - a network series that has been broadcast ONLY ONLINE. It's like American Idol with the exception that the focus is on ORIGINAL material, which is what attracted me to the project in the first place. I'm a singer/songwriter and have been doing this all on my own for over 10 years. I've put out 3 cd's (I am currently recording my fourth), participated in 4 compilations and soundtracks and have a bunch of songs in film and television. I've toured all over the United States, Germany and Ireland, and I've had the honor of sharing the stage with superstar bands and musicians who inspired me as a kid. I have an amazing band, newly dubbed The Incidentals (please read about them on my Star Tomorrow profile). I've taken it about as far as I can with no marketing budget, as an independent artist on my own label. When NBC approached me with the show this past summer, I figured that after working this long and this hard, maybe it was time to let someone with a little more clout (like a multi platinum, Grammy award winning producer) give me a push. That's why I agreed to participate in Star Tomorrow. Thanks to my Pnut Gallery, my MySpace friends and fans, my band, my family and people like YOU, I've reached the final week - the last 5 standing! The winner of this contest gets a recording contract with Warner Brothers. It would be a dream come true for me, and I invite you to help make that happen. I wish I could give you something equal in return, but I do not know what that could be. However, I can tell you that I put my heart and soul into my music, and offer it back up to you ~ maybe it will move you, make you smile, make you laugh or make you think... (or completely annoy you - however, I hope not!).

We're in Week 14 - the Final Five (use the drop down menu if you aren't directed there in the first place), and the song you are voting for is "818" (still....). The direct link to the video is : http://www.startomorrow.com/vote_all_in.php?matchupid=190&id=16

After 13 weeks, you'd think the site would be more user friendly. But, alas, it's still a pain in the ass.

Thank you as always, for your continued support and words of encouragement. The internet blows my mind with its ability to connect us all with just a click ~ thanks for being in my corner of cyberspace, no matter where on earth you may be.
