LexyHey. I’m Lexy and 17 years old. I play drums and guitar. I’d love nothing more than to be able to do this as a career. I love the name and concept on this show. Most music shows are centered around finding singers. There are a lot of musicians that don’t sing. I’d love to be a part of something where like minded and same age musicians are put together to make a band. Something like the tv show Making the Band meets Rock Star Supernova meets X Factor (when Simon put individuals into groups, One Direction and Fifth Harmony). I’ve meet several new bands lately and asked them for advice on how to meet musicians to form a band. They’ve all said they met their band mates from youtube. So, please consider me for this show or any future shows like this. Thanks! 0 Reply July 31, 2015

Eboni RnB Pop PrIncesshttp://youtu.be/TUyENXRTgzA Eboni George Is Here! I’m 17 and have been prepping for this show since the age of 9. I am SO ready for this. My team of voice and performance coaches have trained me well. Leggo! I’ve performed on many stages for many different crowds of all ages. I had a host of a BMI showcase say that I’m the artist others need to be catching up to. Then he said I was “at the top of my up hill climb with no other choice but to fly”. That’s so cool! Will you give me a chance to fly with you? 0 Reply January 14, 2015
