      I got so caught up in the moment I almost pledged $2,000... I'm glad Peter came on the screen to bring me back to reality.

Update #1: Check out my EP teaser!

Posted on December 20

Okay. So I realize a lot of you visiting this page have no idea what my music sounds like. Problem solved!... I've compiled a few samples. Please realize that these are preliminary rough demos of actual songs off of my upcoming EP! Whoa! That's right... get a lil' taste of what's to come. These are songs that I think show some of the variety that will be on the CD.

The video can be seen below. Or, visit youtube at this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTAOZMGi-6g&context=C37dfc70ADOEgsToPDskIiI4hpijvb4G1H7GhI9Dg0

By the way... EP stands for Extended Play, meaning that it will not be a full length album. Instead, there will be 5-6 songs. 

Thanks guys and gals,

Nels

Connected as Nels Leafblad (1572 friends)

My name is Nels Leafblad. I was born and raised in the Twin Cities, MN, and graduated from Bethel University in St. Paul, MN with a degree in Biology. Growing up, I had a very musical family, and those traits were passed on to me. I sing and play guitar, and a little piano on the side. In December of 2010, I went out to Hollywood for American Idol and had an absolute blast, even though I didn't quite crack the Top 24. I'm thrilled to keep making music and performing.
