Sara Niemietz gets noticed by Ellen DeGeneres

-


Sara Niemietz is no newcomer to show business.


At 18, she is a seasoned actress who has done Broadway, been in films and is currently on television as the on-screen guitarist for GLEE.


And if you've seen any of her videos on YouTube, you've probably noticed that she is quite the singer and musician.




Someone else noticed!!!!
Ellen DeGeneres!!!!!
Do I sound a bit excited???
Imagine how excited Sara was to find out that Ellen had ALSO been watching her on YouTube!!!





Ellen was so overwhelmed by

Sara, she wanted to meet her

"immediately"

and invited her to the show,

which aired today, May 4, 2011!




How cool is THAT, people????

Watching Sara talking with Ellen, you can see she has such a sweet presence about her!





But that sweetness was instantly replaced once she got that mic in her hand








and started releasing the SOUL within her.

THE GIRL CAN SANG!!!!






AND WHAT A BAND!!
Backing her are some of music's FINEST!!!




Legends; W.G. Snuffy Walden on lead guitar, Terry Wilson on Bass, Billy Watts on Guitar and Jake Coco on drums. What a line up!!







WHAT A

PERFORMANCE

SARA!!!

THANK YOU

ELLEN!!!

You definitely know great talent!








I have a feeling this will not be the last time we'll see Sara Niemietz on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" or any other show for that matter. She is already on her way to becoming legendary.

You can see Sara performing "Tighten Up" by the Black Keys here

And check out Sara singing "Talking To the Moon" at rehearsal.

This is a few years in the future, but everyone that meets, sees, listens to Sara always enjoys her golden voice, her loving positive attitude and her compassion for love of people. What a mentor and friend Snuffy Walden has been for Sara. he's taken a diamond and polished it to make it "SHINE".

Miles Porcaro, the son of the late famed drummer; Jeff Porcaro of the band Toto, has passed away at the age of 31. Sharing these photos, Miles' mother, Susan Porcaro Goings took to Facebook this evening to post a beautiful public tribute to her son saying, "My heart is broken. I am devastated. My Miles is gone. He's now in heaven with his Daddy." No explanation was posted as to the cause of his death. Soon after the post, family and friends began to pour in, sharing their grief and condolences to Susan and her family. Unfortunately, the Porcaro family has had their share of grief with the loss of Miles' father, Jeff Porcaro, who passed away at the age of 38 from a heart attack in 1992. Jeff was not only a respected studio musician within the recording industry, but was a founding member of the 1980's rock band Toto, which continues to write, record and tour. Another sad loss within the Porcaro family was Jeff's younger brother and Mile...

LO'S PICK OF THE DAY - "São Paulo" by CHIC

Talking about one of my favorite tracks by this wonderful group.  "São Paulo" is the B side of Dance, Dance, Dance (Yowsah, Yowsah, Yowsah) from Chic's debut album. I loved this song so much that as a teen I wore down the vinyl - which by the way, I still have this 45!  1977 and everybody was into disco! And the top Disco hit was Chic's "Dance, Dance, Dance (Yowsah, Yowsah, Yowsah)" This song was so different than what I had heard on my AM radio station, that I had to have the 45!! After playing "Dance, Dance, Dance" over and over, I wanted more of Chic. I hadn't bought the LP yet but wanted to find out what was on the other side, hoping for something similar.  So one night I decided to flip that 45 over and was just floored by what I was hearing! This song definitely turned my 16-year-old world upside down! It was so fine  - it was so funky, I couldn't believe how great this song was! From the moment that I heard those ocean waves and th...

George Harrison - Looking back on 33 1/3 with his friend; Alvin Taylor

           Famed Drummer Shares Memories of Working with George Harrison It's been nearly 2 decades since the younger Beatles passed away. For myself, I’ve been a fan of The Beatles since I was 3 years old and that was a long time ago! I’ve also been a fan of them as individual artists. When John Lennon was tragically killed in 1980, I was devastated. Then to find out that George Harrison would later pass away from Cancer on this day; in 2001, cut me deep. Of course I never had the privilege of meeting any of these wonderful men, but I know someone who has. My friend; famed drummer, Alvin Taylor.  Inside cover of 33 1/3 Alvin's skills as a drummer can be heard on one of my personal favorite LP’s. George Harrison's 1976 release of   33 1/ॐ   which included, Billy Preston, David Foster, Emil Richards, Gary Wright, Richard Tee, Tom Scott and Willie Weeks.  The feedback on  33 1/ॐ was incredible with reviews better than George's "All Th...
