Hello dearest patrons!
Here is the audio for a new Sam Smith GTS medley. The video is very different- it's one side of a breakup conversation gone so very wrong :)
PATREON HANGOUT TOMORROW!! 8PM my apologies to my European patrons, but I think I'm going to make this into a regular thing so I'll do it at different times in the future. And I'll make all the info I share available after the livestream.
See y'all soon!!

Hello dear patrons!!
I forgot to release the actual video to you all after releasing the audio, so in case you missed it, here we are! It was such fun to make, and I experimented with different equipment, and it turned out well.
Speaking of equipment, exciting news, I had been saving up some of my Patreon resources and in consultation with my producers I have a new vocal mic!
It is a...

Hello beautiful patrons,
Wowzers that took a long time to mix and a REALLY long time to upload on the internet I have here in NYC, but it was worth it!!
This song has been such a healing song for me in 2017, so I wanted to spread that to everyone. I'll make it available for download and streaming shortly.
Sending love and light to you all!! More updates to come!
Also so you all know, a really cool opportunity has come up, and I am going to push back the Patreon co...

I wanted to work on my live recording chops, so I did this in one take! And it's an audio recording so you can listen to it off-line.
This is one of my audition songs that I use for younger characters in musicals. It's called "Secret of Happiness" from the musical Daddy Long Legs. I have worked on material for this show for a long time and this song just stuck with me. I hope it brings a little happiness into your life this ...

Two huge apologies here. In looking back at the #TeamMalinda a LOT of Patreon translations slipped through the cracks!!! Ugh. Which I feel TERRIBLE about. OY! I am so sorry. I’m going to do a Christmas translation which I will announce next week and I am going to make a DEDICATED unlisted video to just you all that only you can comment on. That way I can be sure to see absolutely everyone :)
Second apology, I hear for some people you c...
Hello patrons! I am still editing the video for this but I wanted to give this to you in the meantime!! The video will really illustrate how the song CANNOT make up it's mind about whether it wants to be scary or delightful. So filming it was a blast. Can't wait for you to see it! THANK YOU for being on this journey with me. Reminder to put on your calendars, Nov 8th I am doing a Patreon livestream because we reached 300 patrons!! I'll give you updates, ...

Hello patrons!
I may have had too much fun filming this. And Brian Hull stepped in at the last minute and made this video like 20,000x better. Thank goodness for awesome friends!
Hope you all enjoyed it :D . And THANK YOU for your immense support. Heads up, Nov 8th when I release a video, that night I will go LIVE here on Patreon to give you all lots of updates and do a full Q&A. I want to hang with y'all more!
I hope you have a fantastic day, friends! 2017-10-19 03:59:59 +0000 UTC View Post
Hello Patreon friends!
You all get an early look at one of my weirder videos xD. Also can we talk about how amazing Zootopia is? I watched it recently and was shocked at how deep it went on compassion, discrimination, stereotyping, all kind of themes that I didn't expect to show up. Good stuff!
A reminder if you would like to submit a translation for #GTSThriller then submit it with #TeamMalinda and I will know you are a patron!
So much more coming from me soon. &...

I wanted to announce this to you all now before my next video goes up and there are more submissions; I will be doing a GTS of Thriller by Michael Jackson!! If you would like to poorly translate that wonderful song and have one of your lines in the video, visit my most recent video (linked here) and comment with the hashtag #GTSThriller. So I know it’s you also include the hashtag #TeamMalinda and I’ll know you are a patron and prioritize your lyrics!! I ...
Hi patrons!
It turns out there was a miscommunication and the lovely video with Andrew Huang I released to you all yesterday will come out in a week. So there will be no new Patreon video next week. :(. I’m still making a fun vlog for this week today which you’ll see on my channel tomorrow!
Thank you all soooo much for the support and understanding. Exciting things coming!!

My amazing patrons,
This was my first time experimenting not only with auto-captions, but with a new way of allowing people too experience “technology parodies.” I’m hoping to do more work with auto-captions, but also to actually break down how the technology creates what we are hearing.
And to get to do this with Andrew was just the greatest thing ever. Both of us took risks with our respective collabs, and that is one of the best reasons to collaborate- helping fellow cre...
Hello my amazing $5+ patrons,
I have a little gift for you this month. Here is the audio to one of my favorite covers I've done on YouTube with Andrew Huang so you can enjoy it anytime!
This song, "Somewhere" from the musical West Side Story is so special to me. So as you listen to it may it fill you with hope for this world. xoxo
Thank you for being with me on this crazy journey!!
Best,

Hi Patrons!
This is not a Patreon video for me, it's just an awesome collab I got to be a part of with Andrew Huang and Google Arts and Culture! They've launched an an awesome website where you can explore the show West Side Story, so they had us make a cover of a song from the show! The composer, Leonard Bernstein, wanted to heal the world with his music. And it's in this song that is most evident I think :)
It's Leonard Bernstein's centennial this year,...

Hi wonderful patrons!!
I love singing this song. Just singing it normally is a challenge and every time you express it a little differently. And then translating it....you just get to milk it xD
Hope you all enjoyed this and be sure to share with friends!!
Life is pretty exciting right now :D . I hope to do a general life update for everyone at the end of the month.
You all are the greatest. Thank you endlessly for your support.

Hi wonderful patrons!
An additional day early!
Here is my newest video with Bailey Pelkman! We had a lot of fun filming this in a dueling princesses style but actually with two people for the first time! Bailey is absolutely delightful and you all should go check out her channel and her Patreon page. Links below.
Hello my wonderful patrons-
For the first time ever on this channel I reuploaded a video because of too many errors. If I find anymore I will just live with myself, but I learned my lesson of editing while having not slept.
Enjoy the video my friends! And thank you for your love and support.

2017-09-06 03:26:55 +0000 UTC View PostHi patrons,
You may have noticed that my tour post was charged. That is because I did NOT charge the video I made with Jonathan Young when it was released. Had I done that it would have been 5 videos in a month, and I don't like to charge patrons more than 4 per month. That video, had I stuck to my own schedule (and not accommodated for Jonathan's) would have been my first August video. So just attribute the charge for my post announcing the tour to the actual video just before it :)<...
Hi patrons!
This was actually really fun to talk to other creators and do some thinking myself on the topics of persistence and passion. So maybe this video will give you an extra spring in your step.
Enjoy your August exclusive content!! So many exciting things happening, so I am so deeply grateful to have you all at my side.
Peace and love,
Malinda

Hello my phenomenal patrons!!
I am pretty thrilled that I was able to finish this in a day. Took some lack of sleep (trust me I am taking it easy tonight to make up for it) but WORTH IT!!
Enjoy and share with all of your friends. And if you haven't yet, head over to my Stagelink and enter the closest city that I could come perform for you in!!

Hello my wonderful patrons,
I love fellow YouTuber Dodie Clark's new album "You" so I decided to cover one of my favorite songs. I got so lucky to have Nathan Mills from Beyond the Guitar and Andrew Huang on this track!! They were such wonderful collaborators and I can't wait to work with them both again.
Check out their Patreon pages!
Hello my wonderful patrons!
Highly requested and super fun :D I'll add a boat to the crazy places I've filmed now!
And thank you all so much for getting me to $1k per video!!! I expect our count to fluctuate around there for a while, so I will start to take the step of hiring an editor more regularly to give me more time on the creative side! This will be pretty huge for me, so thank you so much!!

Performing live is where I feel the most happy. I feel confident, vulnerable and challenged; just genuinely grateful to be sharing a moment with the people in front of me. And I'm getting the itch to share that with my YouTube audience.
Since you all are my patrons I wanted to start by sharing this initiative exclusively with you: I am thinking of going on tour as early as the spring/summer of 2018. It could well be later, but I am working w...

I am releasing this on a Monday to accommodate Jonathan's release schedule but this video will NOT be charged to July, it will be charged to August since that's when I would have released it otherwise.
This might be one of my new favorites. I'm SO grateful I was able to be in San Diego in the room with Jonathan to play off of him and tell a good story together. Such a fun experience when collaborating! And I was able to do that because of you :) Hope you ...

Hello patrons!!
I had to xD.
This was also my first song that wasn't originally in English. So it was important to me to have someone who actually spoke Spanish explain the basic meaning and give context for the song. My friend Javi and I came up with the fun little intro to set the story.
Thank you all for your continued amazing support. I will be giving you lots more updates on things to come soon!! For now I am enjoying a partial vacation time in Georgia ...

This is a video I've been working on for literally a full year. I am so happy with how this has turned out. We are still finishing some fun surprises in the video and you will see that tomorrow, so SHARE IT with your friends when it comes out. I'm so proud of all of the people who worked on this with me, so I want as many people to see it as possible.
