CPT Breakout Artist of the Year 2015 - Lindsey Stirling - What has she been up to lately?
Last December we named Lindsey our breakout artist of the year for 2015 and I wanted to give you an update on the amazing career of young Ms. Stirling. I am posting several more of her music videos so you can see and hear the amazing productions she has been releasing. Double click the videos for full screen.
Here is the original story on Lindsey.
If ever there was a pioneer in the new computer age who is blazing a trail for the future of the music industry it is Lindsey Stirling, whose story will become a legend. Following is her biography from her website, lindseystirling.com and a series of her videos you really must watch. Double click the videos for full screen and you will not regret it.
About
Lindsey Stirling is one of the biggest artist development breakthrough stories in recent years. A classically trained violinist from Gilbert , AZ , Lindsey has entered a futurist world of electronic big beats and animation, leaping through the music industry with over 675 million views on YouTube, Billboard chart-topping hits and sold out tours worldwide.
Lindsey’s self-titled debut album featured twelve original tracks; including the viral smash “Crystallize,” which has racked up over 97 million YouTube views. The album has sold over 350,000 copies in the US without the backing of a major label, and has gone platinum in Germany and gold in Poland and Switzerland . The album reached number one on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Chart and the Billboard Classical Album Chart and also peaked at #22 on the Billboard Top 200.
On April 29th, 2014 Lindsey released her new album Shatter Me, which debuted at #2 on the Billboard Top 200 album chart, her highest charting album to date. The album features 12 new songs written by Lindsey and includes collaborations with lead singer Lzzy Hale from the Grammy winning band Halestorm and The Voice runner-up Dia Frampton of Meg & Dia. “I really dug deep and poured my heart into Shatter Me,” said Lindsey. “Everything from the artwork to the music shares a cohesive message that I hope will inspire others to push their own boundaries.”
It is hard to believe that Piers Morgan told Lindsey Stirling the world had no place for a dancing dubstep violinist. But being voted off 2010’s “America ’s Got Talent” at the quarterfinals turned out to be the best thing that’s ever happened to her. Rejection simply strengthened Stirling ’s resolve to be herself. “The same reasons I was told I wouldn’t succeed are the reasons people travel hundreds of miles to see me now,” she laughs. “Because it’s different. Because it’s something you haven’t seen before…” Since the show, Lindsey has flourished as an artist.
Raised in a Mormon community inArizona , Lindsey studied classical music rigorously as a teenager. Lindsey’s love for the violin would not let go, and it became a comfort throughout her struggle with an eating disorder during her early adulthood. Through this passion, Lindsey has created a new music world where the romance of Celtic folk music and modern classical meet the infectious energy of dance and electronica.
On stage, Stirling moves with the grace of a ballerina but works the crowd into a frenzy, “dropping the beat” like a rave fairy. Stirling is the model of a modern independent recording artist, with a symbiotic relationship with her fans. She is famed for taking “requests” and has recorded unique versions of the themes from “Phantom Of The Opera” and “Game Of Thrones”, the computer games “Zelda,” “Pokemon,” and “Skyrim,” as well as pop songs by Michael Jackson and Rihanna; She uploads them all to Lindseystomp, a secondary YouTube channel packed with music videos and short comedy films, many featuring her alter-ego – a ‘superfan’ named Phelba.
A motivational speaker in her spare time,Stirling uses her own story to show teenagers that you’ve got to have confidence in the very thing that makes you unique – then wait for the world to catch up.

Why do the French have to preserve American dance culture like the Boogie-woogie?
France - Festival-BoogieWoogie Laroquebrou
As you can see, for the 16th year Laroquebrou in South Central France is sponsoring a festival in honor of the boogie-woogie dance craze still sweeping through Europe.
Boogie-woogie is a form of swing dance and a form of blues piano playing. The term is common in Europe and the dance grew out of the American Lindy Hop, Swing and Rock n Roll dances of the late 1940's and 1950's.
Here is a Swedish couple performing at the French Festival a dance that looks like it came right out of New Orleans. Double click for full screen enjoyment.
Some believe the European interest and Boogie-woogie craze resulted from all the American GIs in Europe in World War II who loved to dance.
Sometimes you just gotta dance!

Are You Paying Attention? What are you going to do about it?
.
Lately I've written about "Random Acts of Kindness" and ‘il dolce far niente’ , the sweetness of doing nothing. Please take time to spend with your family, kids, grandkids, pets, nature and all the other gifts from our Creator you've forgotten about.
Here are a few videos to check out if you still need some way to just sit back and do nothing because laughing, singing and dancing are among those treasured gifts we have been given.
