New Artist Spotlight – Liz Loughrey

Earlier this week, Liz Loughrey wowed us with her cover of Jessie J’s ‘Who You Are’ and now we’ve got an exclusive interview for you to find out more about this rising Canadian star who is set to be Canada’s biggest export to the States since Justin Bieber.

At 15, Loughrey’s confidence and ability exceed that of most people twice her age. In 2010, Loughrey found herself sharing the stage with Marianas Trench, one of Canada’s most successful bands. After submitting a video to a competition organized by the band, Liz was chosen to perform “Good To You” with the band’s lead singer Josh Ramsey in front of a sold out crowd of thousands at Toronto’s Direct Energy Centre. Following her performance, fans of Marianas Trench quickly spread the word online about Loughrey’s incredible vocal ability through social networks like YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook, helping to establish a firm fan base for the budding young star.

Check out iMusicDaily host Tom Bridegroom’s exclusive interview with Liz! We even got her to sing for us! –

Katy Perry Rules The Singles Chart Again…..

Katy Perry’s latest hit is ruling the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart marked a second consecutive week at No. 1.

The last song to spend successive frames at the top of the Hot 100 was “Like a G6,” by Far*East Movement in late-October.

One of those former No. 1s, “What’s My Name?” by Rihanna featuring Drake, was also angling for a second shot at glory by rising one place to No. 2 on the heels of strong radio airplay. The R&B starlet held at No. 6 with “Only Girl (In the World).”

Bruno Mars moved two places to No. 3 with “Grenade.” His former No. 1, “Just the Way You Are,” held at No. 7. Pink’s “Raise Your Glass” dropped two to No. 4, while Ke$ha’s “We R Who We R” inched it’s way to No. 5.

“The Time (Dirty Bit)” by The Black Eyed Peas slid four places to No. 8, Nelly’s “Just a Dream” remained steady at No. 9, and “Bottoms Up” by Trey Songz featuring Nicki Minaj held at No. 10.

Jailed rapper T.I. claimed the top debut as “That’s All She Wrote” came in at No. 18. The tune comes from his new album “No Mercy,” which debuted at a disappointing No. 4 on the Billboard 200 on Wednesday.

This sounds about right, do you agree??
