Dovydas: The YouTube Sensation

Dovydas isn’t just any street musician; he’s a Florida-based YouTube star known for his engaging performances and his open invitation to audience members to join him on stage.

His YouTube mantra?

“I make music.”

In an interview with SRQ Magazine, Dovydas shared his insight, “I had heard about gamers making $10 million a year on YouTube…so I thought, ‘television is dead’ and I shifted my focus to YouTube.”

His strategy seems to be paying off, especially with viral performances like this one in Sarasota, Florida.

Hill’s Voice: A Touch of Magic

The song “Tennessee Whiskey” by Chris Stapleton is already a masterpiece, but Hill’s soulful and smooth rendition brought something extra special to it.

His voice perfectly captured the essence of the lyrics, “You’re as smooth as Tennessee Whiskey…you’re as sweet as strawberry wine. You’re as warm as a glass of brandy and honey I stay strong on your love all the time.”
