IM INLOVE WITH GAVIN DEGRAW

Hi Peoplehood.
Sorry took me awhile to follow up my "supposedly" music blog. I planned to feature daily my favorite musicians that i've heard in my tv series soundtrack madness but i've been to job hunt this past days, got in and started immediately and thank God its a weekend off, got to do what i had to do. Whew! And back to my featured artist for today...and its Gavin Degraw!

To those who haven't heard him, he's the voice behind One Tree Hill's opening credits..." I don't want to be anything other than what i've been tryin' to be lately....." see?? i bet if you're a Tree Hill fan you'll be singing the line now nyahah.

After hearing Degraw in that song, ive been a fan since then. Followed up his career and liked his other songs too. Gavin Degraw is a songwriter and musician from New York, plays piano and guitar. As mentioned, he got his big break singing the theme song for One Tree Hill and also appeared in the show for several times. His songs since then are always in the US billboards and also had nominations in some award shows and had hit albums, concerts and singles. " Im Inlove With a Girl" which was released last year is an upbeat song that has a spice of rap in it, arrangement is superb. Gavin Degraw's music is always alive and unpredictable. You wont know what's the next note cause every stanza or even every sentence is different from the other stanza, but still you can sing along with him .. Sorry cant seem to explain it, but its like the feeling of being in a discohouse wherein you dont know whats the next track. whoosh!! sorry dont know how to elaborate it still nyahah. Eventhough his voice is not as good as a real singer is, i can see passion and soul and the uniqueness that you can distinguish from other musicians. I also noticed that his lyrics is his story, but not 100% sure of that though. He's very cute too oohhhh. He was also awarded as Neon Limelight's Number 1 male vocalist of 2008! Cool huh! Here's one of my fave single "I Have You To Thank". Ooohh loving Gavin Degraw more!!! Byers Peeps. Winn Out.
