This is the sort of find that is sure to get me inspired to blog again on a regular basis. The video below is of Julie Corrigan singing “Angel” for a contest held by Tommy Hilfiger and Sony, in which the winner will perform at a live event and gain exposure.
TommyTV.com launched about 2 months ago and the site features established recording artists and also bring attention to unsigned musicians and singers. (Read more about this project at mtv.co.uk).
Fashion and music have, for many years, influenced one another. The Fashion Rocks event which precedes New York Fashion Week is the highest profile event that synthesizes this collaborative, symbiotic relationship. Hilfiger and Sony with the Hilfiger Sessions project have further defined and invigorated this relationship.
Listen to Julie Corrigan’s rendition of “Angel” (I promise it is well worth a listen!). Share this video and/or upload your own song if you wish.
