David far's performance this week was very powerful.  Its a solid performance vocally and instrumentally.   Its the kind of music that rises the skin.   Timing is so important to me and he really defines that in the pocket playing along side the singing.   no one can deny this vocal.. just wow, its gonna stick with ya

oh this one just really had me in a groove.   Fantastic original piece here.  Lyrics are great, its emotional and delivered beautifully.   I could listen to this one on repeat.   The playing is spot on and I think it was ended perfectly.   Top piece hands down.

I am not gonna lie here I love this girl.   Her songs hit me in the gut just about every single time with that almost birdie like vocal and emotion she pulls out.   Absolutely cherry notes and tones coming out of this girls mouth.  But not just that, she write one hell of a good lyric.   Great song !!!

The trumpet was beautiful in that intro.  Gorgeous playing that has such a good feel to it along with the singing of the fantastic original piece.   Music needs to paint an emotion on your skin and put pictures in your head, and this is a fantastic performance full of color.     I love the end climb of this song.   Great build.

Good picks this week. gotta agree on that #1 pick pretty sweeet performance. gotta dig it, if you can pull off a trumpet

  • Ooo, so far I really like Andy Betsworth - Selling the Sunshine entry. Pretty catchy and the guitaring is really awesome. Kinda some beatles-esque melodies and feel going on here. Like blackbird/yesterday type tunes.

  • Addies got some good tunes dam... Be my sugar (original song) started off a bit slow burn, however really picked up and gained momentum with that high vocal work. Very delicate singing, that's difficult to produce and control.
    All an all catchy little song.

  • Sweet trumpet playing on original song by Fael: Dos Rios. Sometimes I wish I could sing in spanish, it instantly makes your song sexy lol.
    Pretty good guitaring on this one too. The nylon string always sounds so warm !

  • checked out this one too by @corganmusic. Indeed a catchy chorus as you said. Like his low breathy/gravel colour and then it cleans up nice in the mid register. Cool riff work throughout too!

Thanks for posting this, always find it interesting to know your thoughts on these entries and compare notes ;)
