Megan Ochoa

Category: Acoustic/Folk, The Contestants

Music: http://www.reverbnation.com/meganheavlinochoa

Bio: I like to think that my music is sensual. I ride on waves made by the likes of Amy Winehouse and The Black Keys, as people all over the world are showing that they are not slaves to auto-tune and house music.  I have been told after a performance several times by members of the audience (male and female) that they are “turned on.” Now if that is not cool, I don’t know what is!

Location: Los Angeles, California

Key Songs: Crazy

Category: Acoustic/Folk, The Contestants

Music: http://johnvournakis.bandcamp.com/album/j-v-the-petty-thieves
