Lee DeWyze is currently<br />
in the midst of a busy tour<br />
schedule in support of his<br />
Vanguard Records debut —<br />
“Frames” — and this latest<br />
release has the music world<br />
buzzing. The album has garnered<br />
praise from some of the top<br />
music news outlets in the world,<br />
such as the Los Angeles Times,<br />
Chicago Tribune, Yahoo Music,<br />
Rolling Stone and more. His<br />
songwriting chops are making<br />
quite a dent across other<br />
mediums as well.<br />
Television shows like “Nashville,”<br />
“Reign,” and “Hart of Dixie” have<br />
featured his music in broadcasts<br />
and he really picked up traction<br />
when “The Walking Dead”<br />
picked up DeWyze’s “Blackbird<br />
Song.” The song has so far raked<br />
in 50,000 single unit sales, 2<br />
million collective YouTube views,<br />
and has over 1.1 million Spotify<br />
streams. The song is considered<br />
one of the top 10 syncs of 2014<br />
by the Music Guild Association.<br />

Blake Lewis first came<br />
to national attention as<br />
one of the most unique<br />
contestants ever to<br />
compete on “American<br />
Idol,” and long before<br />
that, as a teenager, he was<br />
well-known as “Bshorty”<br />
in Seattle’s a cappella,<br />
hip-hop, and rave scenes.<br />
But with the release of his<br />
ambitious and completely<br />
independent third album,<br />
“Portrait of a Chameleon,”<br />
Lewis is taking things to<br />
a whole new level. The<br />
follow-up to the critically<br />
acclaimed “Audio Day<br />
Dream” — which sold<br />
350,000 copies and<br />
featured the top 40 single<br />
“Break Anotha” — is “fun,<br />
sexy, and positive. I’d call it<br />
‘future pop,’” says Blake.<br />
