I was recently involved in A VERY POTTER MUSICAL, a parody musical about everyone's favorite boy wizard. If you still haven't seen it, you don't want to miss out on the fun any longer:
I did some work on an AWESOME web series called "Little White Lie," for which I wrote a few of the songs and also had a totally silly part in
check out the song "It's Over Now," and the theme song for the series "Caught in the Lie"
in this episode:
then watch the whole series at: http://www.youtube.com/user/LittleWhiteLieSeries
..hey. thanks for accepting my add. just wanted to say that i love your work. i hope one day you release an album, i would definitely purchase it. anyway, i hope you're doing ok. laura xo
Hi! Thanks for being our friend! It would mean a lot if you'd check out our songs and leave us a comment. If we're doing our job you might even get a smile out of it. Comment how you feel!
Also, if you're in the Salt Lake City area let me know, we are trying to build a really strong local fanbase and always looking for people to jam with! Get with us early and we'll hook you up when we're huge...which will probably be in a week or two.
Hey Darren! I really loved you in AVPM, I think you did an AWSOME job xDD And I really loved you in Little White Lie, too. You've got such an origional voice, and, well, I've fallen in love with it. You are truly amazing, and I really hope you keep up with your music. You're much better, in my opinion, then most people that are "popular" in the music indestry. I loved you song "sami" by the way. It had such meaning, to me. Thanks so much, for taking the time to write these lovely songs for us to hear. And you've probably heard all that before, and it probably didn't affect you in any way, but I wanted to say that. =] Merry (early) Christmas.
the next Starkid show should definately be done in LA! can't wait for what you come up with next! your shows are amazing.
I bonded over AVPM with some seniors in my theatre conservatory. now I don't feel like so much of a freshman.. haha we literally had an hour discussion quoting it, and singing, and talking about how great you guys are! thank you for being alive! starkid made my year :)
p.s. post it if any of the starkid team go to the Deathly Hallows midnight premiere anywhere! love to meet you guys! it'd be amazing. and so bummed eastwicks getting cancelled, hopefully I'll be seeing more of you on my television!
So after listening to your music and covers for 2 years I finally watched AVPM when a few friends kept telling me about it, and now I can't stop listening to the music. You've got some talent, dude. Keep up the good work.
So I was just getting into Eastwick anyway, when I was pleasantly surprised to see you show up... I was like, "Hey, is that Darren Criss from AVPM?" You rock. So bummed it's getting cancelled... will we be seeing you again on network tv soon?
I'm confessing I added you after seeing that Harry Potter musical on youtube and I've only recently gotten around to listening to your songs. You sir have an AMAZING voice!!!!!! The Harry Potter musical was hilarious, but this is some seriously good shiitake mushrooms!!
Hey, thanks for the add. I loved A Very Potter Musical and your song "Sami" serenaded my soul. My name is Sami and I've never seen anyone else spell it that way before. Love the song. Love you. Thanks for existing. :)
hello there :] i'm sure that you have heard this a whole bunches, but you have the most incredible voice, no joke. i love listening to your covers, they're so great! and a very potter musical, fabulous! i'm so glad i found your site. keep up the good works!
AWESOME JOB ON EASTWICK!! I loved this week's episode-favorite so far. It was epic. You play a really good cute dorky kid who likes dragons. That takes skill. I really wish that Josh had shown up to the bonfire wearing a costume though. He seems like the type who would go all out in the costume department. Anyway! I'm gonna stop rambling and conclude the way I started(which is a terrible conclusion but oh well). You were Awesome! The entire Cast was awesome! You will go far dude. There is some serious envy radiating from this side of the...internet...I guess. I'm jealous of how amazing you are and of your promising future! Can't wait for next week's show!!! -Cheyenna
I am this close to actually liking Eastwick and not just downloading the episodes you were in. (don't live in the US, or I would help get the ratings better) I don't think I'll forgive you for that (watching all of Charmed was bad enough for my reputation). Damn you and your geeky charm.
(good luck with the dick play, also. wish I could see it live)
