Gaga for Goot

Youtube artist Alex Goot

So I’m on this singer/songwriter kick right now. Who am I kidding? I’m always on a singer/songwriter kick, but recently I’ve been obsessed with one in particular…Alex Goot.

Following in the footsteps of other Youtube notables, Goot has a plethora of videos available on his Youtube channel. Hailing from Poughkeepsie, NY, he slips into the singer/songwriter, acoustic rock genre, doing mostly cover songs for now. I actually found him while looking for covers of Lady Gaga’s “Edge of Glory.” Among the other artists covered on his channel are Bruno Mars, The Beatles, Katy Perry and Taylor Swift. He really has a knack for branching across all types of music, many times including other fellow upstarts in his recordings.

If he holds you’re interest, there’s even better news. This fall he will be going on tour across the U.S., hitting up most major cities along with fellow Youtubers Luke Conard and Tiffany Alvord (both of which I also subscribe and listen to). I’m hoping to try to make it to the Chicago stop. Fingers crossed. Even better, it’s only ten bucks. You really can’t go wrong with that.

Anyway, here’s a listen as well as a link to his FB page. And don’t forget you can purchase many of his songs on iTunes! Enjoy!
