So here is her very first music video "Reflections" from the Disney movie "Mulan" Remember you can follow me on twitter @StarsOnTheRise and like my page on facebook just look for the logo.

Amanda Brown

This weeks "Artist Of The Week" is a up and coming artist that who is a vocal prodigy with a rock edge and her name is Amanda Brown. Amanda Brown was on the third season of the American version of "The Voice". Ms. Brown made it all the way to the top six before being eliminated but she made quite an impression with strong and powerful vocal ability with an alternative rock edge. Amanda Brown was born in Bronx, New York and grew up with a gospel background but as a teen she secretly fell in love with rock and alternative music from artist like radio head. What I love about her and her talent is that she is able to merge soul and that alternative edge that creates a sound that is all her own. That;s why I believe that this 27 year old will have a bright future in the music industry. So take a listen and tell me what you think.
