Got a great shout out from Clive Davis Chair and well known manager Jeff Rabhan -

"Are there any indie artists coming up who you are excited about? There are a couple artists who I think have a really good shot at blowing up. One – her name is Sizzy Rocket and the other one’s name is Patrick Droney. Two up and comers are working on records now that I think have a really good shot."
