On the 17th of this month, my friends and family (and myself) went to a Colbie Caillat concert that was taking place at my campus to celebrate my belated birthday (which was on the 15th, hay gurl hay..kidding- er, move along now.. 8D). The opening was was supposed to Jason Reeves, but at last minute he pulled out and was replaced with this Trevor Hall kid I had never heard of, needless to say ever hear one of his songs.

By the end of his first song "You Find Me" I was completely and utterly blown away with his acoustic skills and stellar, mood settling voice, accompanied by his buddy Chris' amazing percussion performance. I walked out on the chance to see Colbie Caillat live, for the very first time, at the end of their act- just to go sit and chill with them at their booth. And while everyone else was too busy screaming at the top of their lungs, "WE LOVE YOU COLBIE!", I conversing with the two of them and receiving signed copies of both of their CDs AND getting an invite to come chill with them at our Waffle House afterwards.

Yeah, I'm hooked. 8D

Here's the song that started it all for me:

"Puka shells and marley keeps me warm
being alone helps me appreciate solitude
different music suites different moods
my attitude can change from rock to sweet blues 
I enjoy cold lemonade on a hot day
listening to jazz in the middle of the day
surfing from dusk till dawn
staying up late and playing guitar
well nothing compares to these feelings that you give me 
I feel like I have the whole world in hands when you're with me
when I'm lost somehow you find me
you find me
everyday we find something new
well this new day I found you 
I found love and joy all in one
you sent me back where I once was
feeling a natural high
your eyes made me feel like I was in the sky
there just ain't anything else that compares to this taste
as you can see I'm head over heals 
I got butterflies and sweet sweet vibes mounting up in my skin
all the rainy days are gone and the sun shines..."
