  • Youtube Star Peter Hollens Debuts “Quarantine Song” to Drive Donations to Combat COVID-19
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE [email protected] 573-201-4104 YouTube Star Peter Hollens Debuts “Quarantine Song” to Drive Donations to Combat COVID-19 #1 Billboard Charting Recording Artist and YouTube Sensation Creates New Musical Parody Using Hit Pop Tunes to Encourage Social Distancing; 100% of Proceeds Raised Will be Donated to No Kid Hungry’s Coronavirus Relief Fund (Los Angeles, CA—April 20, 2020) Peter Hollens, recording artist, American ​ ​ entrepreneur, educator, and classically-trained vocal artist most commonly known for his a cappella music videos on Youtube and Facebook, has debuted the QUARANTINE ​ ​ ​ ​ SONG today to encourage people to stay home to flatten the curve and beat COVID-19. The new song is a 100% charity-driven effort, with proceeds going to support millions of children who have lost healthy meals due to school closures nationwide. “We created this to bring levity and fun to a serious subject, but to also remind people that now is the time to think of others before ourselves. Staying home protects ourselves and our family but also our neighbors, friends and our global community,” said Hollens, who’s popular YouTube channel reaches nearly 3 million subscribers. “Thanks to all of my fellow influencers who are joining me in getting this video out into the world. We’re asking everyone to share this video to spread the word and hopefully slow down the spread of coronavirus.” The QUARANTINE SONG was kickstarted by the launch of Hollens’ latest video, which parodies global superstars, including Lady Gaga, Adele, Ed Sheeran, Justin Bieber, Dua Lipa and more with a special guest appearance by Tay Zonday parodying his song “Chocolate Rain” and Evynne Hollens in a singalong encouraging viewers to stay home and practice social distancing when going out.

  • Thanks to the Internet, We Now Have the Chance to Discover Talents We Would Not Have Heard on Television
    Thanks to the Internet, we now have the chance to discover talents we would not have heard on television. This is the case of Taylor Davis, a 27 years old american violonist. One album after the other since 2012, she has released an album entitled "Melodies of Hyrule" in November 2013. Some clips of this album, like her Song of Time and Song of Storms covers, have been published in the Gazette. While she was preparing to play in San Francisco and Chicago in April, Taylor Davis had the kindness to anwser our questions. Question by Alice Lee & Zemo - Puissance Zelda March 28th 2014 Hi Taylor ! I’m called Alice Lee from Puissance-Zelda, a French website about the Zelda series. We discovered you on our website and forum through a number of our “Gazette de PZ”, in which we shared one of your videos : “Song of Time and Song of Storms”. Many people loved your video, but unfortunately information about you on French websites are quite succinct… You made lots of covers, both from film musics, like “Concerning Hobbits”, and from video games, like “Zelda medley”. Are films and video games your other hobbies? Yes, I love both video games and movies. I have been playing video games for as long as I can remember and gaming has always held a huge place in my heart. I have an older brother who I can credit for getting me interested in playing video games at such a young age :) Beyond video games and movies, I also really enjoy physical activity like weight lifting and tennis, cooking/baking, photography and many other activities! What’s a normal day in Taylor Davis’ life? It always depends on the types of projects I have going on.

I hope in a few years I’ll be able to give back to both.” —Cosme Velazquez, BA ’18 Major: Journalism Minor: Latin American studies PathwayOregon scholar GOAL KEEPER For Cosme Velazquez, the ultimate career would be giving play-by-play commentary for soccer matches. But the journalism major is also considering graduate school. Thanks to PathwayOregon, either goal is possible. Or maybe both. A first-generation college student, the recent UO graduate from Creswell, Oregon, doubts he would have attended the university without the PathwayOregon promise—a guarantee to qualified Pell Grant-eligible Oregonians that tuition and fees will be covered for four years. The scholarship program also offers academic and career support, as well as peer assistance programs. As a mentor, Cosme helped fellow students navigate college life. “It’s just a small thing to give back to the program that’s given so much to me and other people,” he says. Dream Granted As a senior at Creswell High School, Cosme was student body president, captain of the soccer team, and cosalutatorian. But, as he puts it, “Going to college was just like a dream.” Cosme’s best friend—the other salutatorian—also received a PathwayOregon scholarship.
