Time for a new review and this one is on the singing sisters Kendra Slabaugh age 17 and Krista Slabaugh age 15. The North Dakota natives started singing in church and loved singing on stage and in public. They say they have been singing since they learned to talk.

Their voices are diverse, so they appeal to people who love pop, folk and country; that is a pretty wide angle to work with. Kendra and Krista combine their distinctive musical talents to comprise the genre-bending duo, Tigirlily! Music is their passion and they are honored to share it with the world. You go girls! They don't only do covers, but have amazing originals that I can so hear on any radio station. They have done public performances such as:

Holiday Honey" and another Christmas song "live" on North Dakota Today
West River Christmas Party
Farmers Union Insurance Annual Meeting
Basin Electic Annual Meeting, and more.

Check their personal website for more public performances coming soon!

Krista, age 15, is the one with the longer blond hair and of course Kendra, age 17, is the one with the shorter layered hair. I am learning about theses beauties as I write about them. I had not heard of them and am looking foreword to getting to know them along with you...

To start this out, let's go with one cover song and then two originals for my review, sound good? Yeah I thought so to :)

Blown Away - Carrie Underwood by Kendra and Krista (Tigirlily)



I love this song; these girls did a live acoustic version and made it their own. In this writer's humble opinion, it takes talent to take such an amazing song and do it with only a guitar. The pitch was spot on and although they slowed it down some, they never lost the clear tones, and the meaningful words were sang with passion. You two did awesome!

Tigirlily - "Holiday Honey" Official Music Video



ITS Christmas and what better way to have that feeling smack you in the face, ( Yes in a good way :P ) than by listening to Tigirlily Holiday Honey. The song is adorable, nice beat to dance to, great for kids and well anyone, its a wholesome song that will make you smile.. The video was very well done and put together and the girls looked beautiful.

Tigirlily - "North Dakota" Official Music Video



OK all you North Dakota Natives or Bison lovers, this song is FOR YOU.... I would consider this to be an anthem to North Dakota. What do you think? I have never been, but it looks so beautiful I want to GO. I saw the comments and ND people are coming around to say HECK yeah this is OUR SONG.. Way to go girls, you have an anthem!

Guest Blogger Danielle Hatfield is back with her second post for YouTubeStars! Danni is from Alabama and is currently a college student studying Marketing. She is also a talented singer! I was following Danni when she entered Cree Inglees Idol Search competition on YouTube. Check out the excellent singing videos on her YouTube channel! One of my favorites is this video of Danni singing Amy Winehouse's hit "Rehab".

In her second guest blog post for us, Danni reviews three music videos by female YouTube musicians. The videos are of cover songs by Avril Lavigne, The Wanted, and Shania Twain.

See what Danni has to say and watch the videos she discusses!


But first, The News!





Now, here is Danni's second Guest Blog post!


Smile

I found Rachel Thom by watching one of my favorite youtube vloggers, iJustine. She created a short song for iJustine's Vlog University homework assignments. You can check that out on her channel.

I thought she had a unique voice, so I went to her page and found her covers and original songs. However, I was surprised to see that she had the views she had because she deserves many more! You can buy her original songs on iTunes, my personal favorite is Wear & Tear. Her YouTube channel is RachelThomMusic. This young lady is very talented and beautiful with a voice to remember.

She covers Avril Lavigne's song "Smile". She makes this song her own by putting her own style to it. Here is her cover:






Warzone

Sara Baxter is a musician that's talented with vocal ability and guitar skills. She does an amazing job writing her own songs and performing covers. You can check out all of her videos on her YouTube channel, sarabaxt.

She coverers a song by The Wanted "Warzone". She puts her emotion in to the song, and you can really tell that she loves singing and playing. Here is her cover:






You're Still The One

When I was a small child, my mother and I used to listen to Shania Twain while we got ready in the mornings. I knew all the words to her CD's. With that being said, Shania Twain is one of my favorite country artist.

A girl, Danielle Moyes, that I met a while back on YouTube, use to comment on my videos. Through that we became friends, and a long time after we became friends, she started posting her own videos. It turns out that she has an amazing voice. She can play many instruments, and has a very pure sound to her voice. I personally love all of her covers. Check out her YouTube channel: dj268.

Here is her lovely cover of Shania Twain's song "You're Still The One":
