Emily is a young singer and songwriter, growing up in Wisconsin. She plays guitar, sings, and wrote her own songs, mostly in country style.
Some facts, taken from her FaceBook account: She has been playing guitar since she was eight and singing forever, really. It's been her dream to be a singer since she was four.
Her dad sings and plays guitar, and he's a huge musical inspiration for her. Taylor Swift also inspires her.

Gerald (Cork, Ireland) is an extremely talented solo singer, and is also one of the Wee Amigos.
He has won many talent competitions and was in the final of Corks Got Talent 2011. Gerald has also won Blackpools Got Talent in the UK.
His first album 'Love me' is recently released and available at Sharpe Music or IrishMusic.co.uk (search for new releases).
The album contains eight covers by Gerald Ahern and three bonus tracks by the Wee Amigos.
'Love,Me' (don't confuse it with the JB hit 'Love me') is a song telling us about a couple who promise to love each other. The song's narrator tells of being with his grandfather, and reading a note that was written by his grandmother back when both grandparents were younger. This song was original sung by Collin Raye, but it sounds like it was written for Geralds voice. Excelent.
'You`re Beautiful' after an original by James Blunt.
I have listened to many covers of 'Hey, Soul Sister' (Train): Jordan Jansen, Devin Fox, Jaxn Odell, Sepp `n Sigi (beautiful own sound), Eirik Gjen, Jay Massey (Jmanmas) and many more. But when I reached the third song on this album, I awarded myself no time to listen to the rest of the album. I played 'Hey, Soul Sister' over and over.
Shameless, more beautiful songs will follow, like 'Grenade' by Bruno Mars. You will find sixteen covers on this site, so judge for yourself.
'Don't Stop Believing', from the American band Journey.
Billy Gilman was only 12 years young when he reached the Billboard Hot Country Singles Chart with his song 'One Voice'. Do I see an opportunity for the 12-year-old Gerald?
'She was covered in leather and gold, 21 years old'. Let's face it, Gerald. You are to young for her. But when singing 'Brooklyn' you are a good rival for Bruno Mars.
'Fireflies' (Owl city) is another song which I can listen to again and again. But I don't do that this time, becouse we have three more songs to go.
All three by the Wee Amigos: The Galway Girl, Say You Love Me and the Johnny Cash Medley (I Got Stripes, Folsom Prison Blues and Ring of Fire).

Razvan Dobai followed dance lessons, since he was six years old. Then he participated in several shows and national competitions. At this shows, his interests in music was awakened.
Later, he will have been nine years, Razvan will focus entirely on music. Then he followed piano lessons at the Francis Hubic art school.
He has hobbies too: music (of course), games and swimming.
On the classic question "what do you want to be when you grow up?" the answer is "making a career in music and computer scientist."
Remarkably, Razvi's rendition of 'Click Clack', the song that Ralf Mackenbach in 2009 ensured that the Netherlands finally won a songcontest. Funny, to hear someone from Romania sing in Dutch.

Allan Clelland-Goddard was born in England on July 29, 1997. Only three months old he and his family moved to Trinidad (Trinidad & Tobago).
Now, Allan and his family lives in Florida.
Allan loves music and singing from an early age. Only six years old he won a song contest at school and two years later, a national singing competition.
Allan likes to become an actor or singer. And he has some experience. He played in three musicals: Oliver in the musical Oliver(based on Charles Dickens novell), Kurt in the Sound of Music and Chip in Beauty and the Beast.
The first song I heard from Allan was his song Street Children. Street Children describes the plight of the many (according to United Nations estimates more than 150 million), homeless street children who daily struggle to survive.
The text was written by Allan's mother, Deborah. In a few weeks time, Street Children became the most viewed video on this website.
Recently Allan sent us two new videos: "It Will Rain" and "I Won`t Give Up"
