Alexz Johnson<\/strong><\/p>\nCMJ could just as well be over now that Alexz Johnson has played her showcase at Rockwood. What was unfortunately not witnessed by a myriad of people turned out to be one of the most moving shows of the week. Starting out with her song \u201cWeight\u201d that was on an album she did with Epic Records before it got shelved, she conquered everybody\u2019s heart within 4 minutes. Accompanied on stage by her hipster band mates, she sang a high note towards the end that could not have been better performed by Adele. Performing songs from her shelved Epic album, her debut album \u201cVoodoo\u201d and her most recent EP \u201cSkipping Stone,\u201d she showed off her amazing vocals and rhythmic songs.<\/p>\n
Closing her set with a new song called \u201cDon\u2019t Stop,\u201d Johnson ended an amazing CMJ showcase. \u201dDon\u2019t stop \/ Don\u2019t stop \/ Keep moving to the top \/ It\u2019s your time don\u2019t let them tell you it\u2019s not\u201d is definitely the way to go for her. If she\u2019s not going to make it to the top, something is seriously going wrong in the music industry.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
