Bianca Merkley + another GIVEAWAY!!

You know when someone tells you they play the guitar and sing, and when you are about to listen to them for the first time, you are seriously sooo nervous? What if they aren't good? What do you say? How do you respond when they are finished?  Well, I have to admit, that was how I was feeling when Bianca emailed me about her music. 

Well kids, let me tell you... I was blown away when I listened to her first song! 
She has the most beautiful voice ever, and I found myself listening to her songs all day, and then all day the next day, and I am totally obsessed with them! She is good. She is really good! I had nothing to worry about!
{I am obsessed with her songs 'I Never Knew' & 'Grateful'}

{I may have just bought her CD off of iTunes!!!}



Lucky for you, you can go listen for yourself (here or here), and fall in love with her like I have! 
(And isn't she the cutest thing ever??)

Bianca is working on finishing up her second album, right now, and is doing a Kickstarter Campaign to help with the process. Basically, you can go pledge a dollar amount, of your choice, and she will send you free goodies (everything from a sign CD, to handmade jewelry, to a singing telegram (via web or in real life), to a free solo concert anywhere in the US!!!)!!!! 

Her goal is to raise $3,000, by June 28th (my birthday!), to help towards finishing her album! Any amount will help, and she is so close to reaching her goal...let's help her out!!
{Think of it as a birthday gift to me!}



And now to the awesome giveaway!!!

Bianca is giving away, to one lucky reader, a signed CD that will come in a one of a kind, handmade (by Bianca) CD case, as well as a her handmade, "all natural beauty" bracelet and earrings ( I am in love with this bracelet)!!
