singer/songwriter who plays both the guitar and ukulele. She has been writing music since she was eight years old and moved to L.A. 10 years later to pursue her dreams. Tohn's talents have already gained her recognition in the music industry, as she's recently been named as one of the "Top 100 Unsigned Artists" in Music Connection Magazine. Although Tohn has found minor success, she is ready to take the music world by storm with her soulful and witty songwriting.

Tohn was previously in the top 36 contestants in Season 8 of FOX's "American Idol." She auditioned in East Rutherford, New Jersey, singing "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz. All four judges voted yes to send her to Hollywood. She was in the first group of 12 contestants to perform out of the top 36. She did not receive enough votes to secure a spot among the finalists, and the judges decided not to give her a second chance on the wild card show.

Tohn has released two albums independently, "Beguiling" and "The Golden Girl EP." She is also an actress who has appeared on TV series such as "The Sopranos," "Angel," "Veronica Mars," and "The Closer."

Tohn holds an associate's degree in psychology from Santa Monica College. Her hobbies include acting, performing comedy and playing guitar.
