hear good music: terra naomi

one of the first acts signed on to a major label based on her popularity on youtube, singer/songwriter terra naomi first introduced herself to the world by broadcasting concerts from her hollywood apartment. her performance of the song "say it's possible" quickly gained popularity on the site, garnering cover versions and translations in different languages from fans all over the world (2 millions hits and counting yo!).

all this has paid off wonderfully for terra, not only did she receive the youtube best music award for 2006 but also signed on to island records who will officially release her album in august.

check out the song that made it all happen:

terra naomi - say it's possible [link 2]
[simple and sweet, i've been singing this song to myself for the past few weeks. i don't know why, but she reminds me of a young linda perry.]


terra naomi - close to your head (live @ rolling stone/cisco ad shoot)
[a live performance that terra taped recently. the girl is a wonderful singer and that kind of allows you to ignore some of the borderline twee lyrics.]

I saw Terra Naomi live at the Hotel Cafe in LA. She was great. She introduced me to a new artist....Lissie opened for her...amazing voice.
