I posted about AJ on my thread about the Digitour show I video recorded and put on YouTube that featured YouTube Pop-Rocker Dave Days.

A.J. is a piano player balladeer who has a lovely voice that I watched rise to YouTube fame as he grew up over the last few years with his Glee-like covers of songs from Disney movies. I linked his cover of Let it Be by The Beatles on that Digitour thread. He has just yesterday released an album of all original songs completely independent of any record label and independently produced. It hit the Top Ten Albums on the iTunes charts within hours of its release! He is right up there with Lady Gaga and Rhianna and Beyonce on the charts now!

Here is the album preview from his YouTube channel:

I bought it myself and it is really good. Here is the iTunes link:

There is a billboard page for it:

It hasn't charted yet on Billboard, but I think it takes at least a week before it can chart there.
