Acoustic Music Central

Acoustic music epitomizes the soul and raw emotion behind any song. It breaks down walls and personalizes the story behind the music. Let these songs speak to you.

Kevin K.O. Olusola from the Grammy Award winning group Pentatonix has recently released an EP, The Renegade!!! This cover of “Stay with Me” is #YAAAASSSS in so many ways. I am so excited to see Pentatonix in concert this Thursday and see this magnificent artistry in person!!!

You may recognize Travis Ewing from this season of “The Voice” because of his sweet rendition of “Say My Name”. He is my pick for the season, and I really hope Blake can do well by him! This is his rendition of “No Diggity” by Blackstreet.

This guy. He is on "American Idol" this season. He is ridiculously talented. He opens up the "Feeling Good" top 24 teaser (just btw) and he just makes my heart happy. This is Clark Beckham with "His Eye is on the Sparrow".

My roommate asked me the other day if since everyone has a music jam, does everyone also have a music peanut butter?

There are several talented and charismatic artists on this year's season of "American Idol", but this performance is one that I continue to listen to over and over again. Her voice combines the vibrato of Duffy with the sweetness of Sara Bareillis. This is Jax with an acoustic cover of "I Want to Hold Your Hand" by the Beatles.

Congratulations to redkedskid on becoming my 300th follower! I created this blog two years ago as a personal project to collect all of the stripped down music I loved on YouTube, and I never expected so many other acoustic enthusiasts to be out there as well! Thanks guys, and I look forward to many more awesome years of music to come!
