Juliet Simms was a total rockstar on The Voice this season! Did you know that she previously released a really awesome album called Truth or Dare with her band, Automatic Loveletter? Now that you know, go snag yourself a copy!
Jesse Baylin will perform live on Jay Leno, tune in to watch 2/22 11:35/10:35c on NBC.
She will perform “Hurry Hurry” from her latest album Little Spark, released Jan. 17, 2012.
When you hear Jessie Baylin sing for the first time, it takes a matter of moments to realize that she’s intimately familiar with pop’s history – but not at all interested in repeating it. Her songs—and her plangent voice—carry a classic pop tone that evoke memories of the Brill Building and Laurel Canyon in the ‘70s while retaining a decidedly modern, empowered worldview.
Here, Jessie talks about her collaborators including Richard Swift and Kevin Augunus.
“I drew a lot from people like Burt Bacharach and Dionne Warwick, the Brill Building writers,” says the New Jersey-born, Nashville-based singer-songwriter. “But I didn’t want to make a retro, throwback kind of album. Nostalgia is fine, I have a definite fondness for that, but I didn’t want people to listen and think I was trying to recapture something from the past.”
Sinead O’Connor performs live on Graham Norton show and talks to USA Today about her new album How About I Be Me? (And You Be You), available now.
She recently performed live on the Graham Norton Show. See her performance and interview below.
“The Wolf Is Getting Married”
Here is her brief interview:
“I’ve spent all my life as an artist being told what I should be and what I shouldn’t be — basically, why don’t you just be somebody else,” O’Connor tells USA Today, who had a No. 1 hit in 1990 with Nothing Compares 2 U but hasn’t released a new album since 2007′s Theology. ”I just got sick of it, because I was having so much fun doing what I was doing, and I was being me. … I was going to call it just How About I Be Me, but I thought that was selfish, and that I should express that I don’t mind you being you, either.”
