Icecremn Merlin at Palazzo Celestiale Live Music Venue 4-18-2012

HBO "When Strangers Click" with documentary maker Robert Kenner and Bara...

I have found this film on another blog today. On my blog I mostly write about the artists I see perform on Second Life so this film has put a smile on my face, also I think it's a good thing for the actual Live artists to read and watch.
Avatar Bara Johnson started to sing in Second Live, and at one point he just recorded a whole album in New York. Well maybe just watch the movie and you will know what im blabbing about:-) (you will need to take your time because the movie is almost 40 minutes but it's worth it, trust me)
Enjoy!!!

Hellig Melson
Hellig has been performing in SL for some time now and has been wowing audiences with the variety of genre that he is able to put across and the feeling he manages to invoke in his performances. Hellig has a musical background spanning the last 5 decades.  Growing up in a musical family Hellig began playing piano at the age of 5 and has become an accomplished musician playing keyboards, bass guitar and drums along the way. Early years brought a wide range of influences from swing/country/jazz to pop & rock through the 60s/70s/80s and beyond, all of which show through in the shows that he performs in SL.
Based in the UK, Hellig was  recently found performing at the Abbey Road on the River Festival 2009 in Louisville, Kentucky with “Wingsbanned” and prior to that performing at major venues around the UK as the musical director with “ElvisTonight”.

Hellig lives for his music in all its genres and hopes you will enjoy the variety within the shows he performs which are representative of the musical influences in his life.
