HEAR THIS: Alexz Johnson<\/strong>
\nMarch 28. 2013 | By Kaitlin Rodriguez<\/p>\n

After starring in a TV series, signing and getting dropped by Epic, female singer songwriter, Alexz Johnson is making her own music now. We should really thank Epic Records for dropping her, and thank fans and Kickstarter for funding her tour, or we might not have this Skipping Stone EP. Starting with the infectious \u201cGive Me Fire,\u201d Alexz delivers the depth of Adele\u2018s \u201cRumor Has It\u201d combined with vocals similar to the Cults\u2018 60s female throwback sound. Don\u2019t be surprised if you find yourself humming the chorus after giving it a listen because it\u2019s a real treat.<\/p>\n

\u201cWalking,\u201d in contrast, is a crooning, acoustic tale of heartbreak intertwined with a passionate chorus asking, \u201cwhy am I walking in circles when I have nowhere to go?\u201d We don\u2019t think we\u2019re completely delusional by saying there\u2019s a Jenny Lewis vibe going on here either. Another highlight is \u201cTheif,\u201d an enjoyably soulful take on what sounds like a catchy Tegan and Sara song, made all her own with her guitar playing. Alexz Johnson\u2019s impressive vocal range, dynamic songwriting, and guitar skills make Skipping Stone a must-listen.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
