She did, and two of her tracks ended up on the show's first season.
When season two rolled around, music supervisor Jon Ernst began turning to Paxtons music and songwriting skills to feature on the show.
Jaime has proven to be a very valuable resource to me, said Ernst.
When I cant find the perfect song for a scene, she magically goes home, writes the perfect song and brings it in for us just in the nick of time Gotta love that! Five of Paxtons songs were featured prominently in numerous episodes of the series second season.
Thanks to her exposure on the show, Ms.
Paxton has landed gigs at MTVs Laguna Beach landslide benefit as well as numerous sold out shows in Los Angeles with her band.

I love everyone involved with the show, theyve all been so good to me.
Its challenging and refreshing to be able to do what I love to do full time, Paxton said.

Huntington Beach, CA (ContentDesk) February 17, 2006 -- Over the years, the presence of obesity in children has dramatically increased.
