The Backstory:
Superfruit is a Youtube channel by Mitch and Scott, who are singers in the acapella group Pentatonix. A few years ago they posed this challenge for viewers to Tweet their phone numbers to Superfruit, then they’d call some of those people and ask for random song suggestions, and then they made an epic mashup out of those songs. This episode features Tori Kelly as their guest! She's also amazing!!!
If you don’t want to watch the whole process leading up to it, you can watch the mash-up they made by itself here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYuIAfDM7S8
The Challenge:
Arranging music is one of my passions! This blog can’t continue without musical ideas, nor can it continue without readers. I’m in need of new mash-up ideas, so I’m posing a challenge to all of YOU! Here’s the scoop:
After you read this post, comment on Facebook with a song suggestion (title and artist please!) and tag a friend, saying "Song for Jocelyn?" (If you don't have Facebook, comment here on the blog page or email me!)
Ask your friend to comment with another song suggestion, and tag another friend.
Keep the challenge alive and rolling by giving me song suggestions and tagging friends to do the same!!!
I’ll make mash-ups out of the songs you suggest. No promises that I’ll get to everyone if there are more than expected, but I hope to get there!
I'm not making any specific musical exclusions, just that we keep the material around a PG-13 rating (i.e. no F bombs, no extremely mature themes, etc). And if you know me, maybe think about songs you could imagine me doing and/or think I would enjoy. Whether I get to use all song suggestions depends on how many suggestions I get and how they work together. Like I said, no guarantees I'll get to everybody, but I really want to keep the lines open to get as many different genres in this game as possible! No ending deadline as of yet, so keep it coming!
So PLEEEEEEEEEEASE share this challenge and tag away! I’m excited for any and all song suggestions to come!!!!
Song suggestions for Jocelyn?
