Girl Group?

Hey Friends,

I just wanted to share with you the hot jamz Margo Harshman and I wrote last night. You might remember Margo as Tawny on "Even Stevens". She also has several movies coming out, including "Sorority Row"...but that's besides the point. Most importantly, she and I have been friends for years, and have always wanted to write music together. Well, last night it finally happened. We wrote feverishly, and created Garage Band magic. Afterwards, we giggled like giddy little girls at our finished product. Hope you enjoy, and I'd love to hear what you think!

"Paragraph"



"Scenester"



In other news, I'm headed to SXSW on Thursday and I couldn't be more excited! I'm looking forward to exploring Austin, TX and experiencing mind-blowing amounts of new music.

Hope all is well in your world,
Lauren

Fun with Mbox

Roughly a week ago, I woke up with this melody in my head, crawled over to my guitar and wrote. Ashton Likes the song so much, he's using it as a transitional track on his record. (I really enjoy making sentences out of his name, as do most of his friends.)

After a lovely going away dinner at my parent's house, we decided to play with my new computer and old Mbox. We rigged the microphone in the loft, and the fun began. My friend John John played guitar, I sang, and Ashton hit record. Here it is.....
