did a live set for Walmart Soundcheck, where the 14-year-old performed ‘Good As It Gets’, ‘Crazy But True’, ‘On My Mind’, ‘Angel’, ‘Not Just You’ and ‘All Day’ for an audience of young female fans.

During an interview with the Australian pop singer, Cody talked about why he named his new EP ‘Coast to Coast’, contributing to the EP’s production, getting big on YouTube, the importance of believing in yourself, how songwriting is natural to him on guitar, and growing up listening to country music.

“Whenever I’m writing a song individually, I’m usually writing on my guitar, because it’s an instrument I grew up playing,” Cody explained. “I’ve been playing it for seven years now and it’s something that’s very natural to me. If I ever have a guitar riff or a guitar cord progression that I enjoy and want to start writing a song to, I’ll definitely always do it on a guitar.”

Florence And The Machine 'Lungs'

Director Baz Luhrmann caught up with Florence Welch for Interview magazine, where she talked about adjusting to normality once off the stage. “You know, people always ask, ‘What are you like offstage?’ And I always say, ‘Well, I’m completely normal and mellow.’ And then things like that happen and maybe I’m operating in a higher emotional state – and not like even in a helpful way,” the Florence and the Machine singer explained. “On stage, you can use your emotions. It’s the place where you can channel them. They have a purpose. But then offstage they just hit you… All that power that you can use on stage disappears when you’ve lost your phone and you’re in the middle of the street in New York City.” Check out the entire interview and photo spread at interviewmagazine.com.

is out with the music video to his new single ‘Not Over You’, off the American singer songwriter’s fourth studio album ‘Sweeter’, out now on RCA Records.

“‘Not Over You’ is about trying to get past someone emotionally,” DeGraw told AOL Music. “It’s kind of riding that line between vulnerability and pride. You’re saying ‘If I saw you, even though I’m missing you, I wouldn’t tell you I was missing you.’ That may or may not be a masculine trait, but I do know it’s prideful and vulnerable.”
