Discovery! Discovery!

So TLC is actually useful for something! They did a makeover on this girl, Megan Slankard, from gross little grunge girl to a really pretty sophisticated rock star image. The girl is a musician, and she has an AMAZING voice, as in WOW. She also writes her own songs, which is nifty, because they're quite powerful and not at all cheesy or infantile (ahem, Avril Lavigne). I actually bought her CD yesterday, because I like her music so much. I guess, like a lot of people, I discovered her through her TV appearance and stuff, but that sort of publicity gets a lot of people who might otherwise never know about an artist. If you're interested in Tori Amos-meets-Alanis Morissette-meets-Sheryl Crow voice wise, and spiffy modern-like songs with guitars that would make Jimmi Hendrix do a double-take, listen to the sample stuff Megan Slankard has on her website. Check it out, people!
