Matt Giraud’s Originals *New*
Matt had his first solo performance since the Idol tour on 11/21 in Caledonia, MI. Singing 5 new original songs, if this isn’t enough evidence that Matt Giraud should be SIGNED to a record label…I don’t know what is.
Take a listen yourself. And leave a comment, let us know which one is your favorite!
“I Miss You Tonight” - 11/21/09 Cornerstone Performance
“Breaking in a Broken Heart”- 11/21/09 Cornerstone Performance

***Ready, set, go…who can get the most points by the end of Tubey Tuesday?***
While we’re waiting for more info from Matt on his new music, what are some covers you would love to hear him do? We all know how his covers are often times better than the original. So what would you request? Feel free to post YouTube links so we can all take a listen and imagine what Matt could do with it!

Fan Friday – Janelle
Name: Janelle (BGjanelle)
Location: Philadelphia, PA
Short bio: I’m a big American Idol fan and I’ve had many obsessions with contestants over the years, but this has by far been the biggest. Matt Giraud caught my attention immediately with his “I Don’t Wanna Be” audition; I just loved his voice and hoped he would go far based on his talent–”Georgia”, anyone? Along the way I also fell in love with his fun personality and his overall awesomeness. As a fan, there were so many twists and turns on the emotional rollercoaster from week to week, especially with the Wild Card and Judges’ Save. I had never invested so much time, energy, and money into any artist, but between being able to see Matt perform live in Philadelphia and Grand Rapids and meet him personally, it has provided memories for me that I’ll never forget. Through Matt I have found my girls, the BG’s, and bonded with many other awesome fans on Twitter and the americanidol.com and mattgiraudfans.net forums.
On #SignMattGiraud: Matt G needs to be signed! What really drew me to Matt was his originality, that husky, soulful voice and his virtuosic piano skills, which I certainly would pay to listen to any day of the week, and I know I’m not alone! It’s clear to me that Matt breathes music and has so much pouring out of him that he can’t wait to deliver. It has been exciting to hear about his writing and recording sessions–I hope that Matt is making music that he is really proud of and that truly represents himself as the artist he wants to be. No matter what though, I will be a Matt Giraud fan for life!!

Early this morning, Matt tweeted a random photo of himself practicing his….balance.

Hmm, thoughts?
