The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Singer Dani Hagan!

Rebels, it's always fun to get to interview an artist who's been generating a lot of buzz. The only time I generate buzz is when I walk into a hornet's nest. Unintentionally. Well, usually. But, as the music you will get to …

The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Chip White!
