Happy Halloween!
Well well … fancy meeting you here! Oct. 25th already. This has been an insane amazing month or two. I have so many stories and exciting tid-bits of news to share! Wow, let’s start from where I last left off!
The end of september was a crazy whirlwind! I had 4 shows that week, 3 co-writes and got to hang out with some great friends and make beautiful memories. The beginning of October I was blessed with the opportunity to record some NEW material at Playground Recording Studio and had such a blast! What was meant to be just 2 demos turned into 4 full scale productions, and we pulled ALL the stops folks. I even have steel guitar on these songs. Awesome! So I spent the week listening to the amazing session players put their neat licks and flavour on the tunes.
I was also blessed to see Lee Ann Womack & Little Big Town’s taping of their Christmas special at the Grand Ole Opry House. That was so cool - we had amazing seats and they sounded amazing. When you see that on CMT, just remember … I was there! haha.
I have been writing with some talented folks here and can’t wait to share some of the new songs that we have been working on. So far 7 brand new tunes have been created … hoping to come back with a whole lot more by december! Yesterday I was recording in Michael McDonald’s (of the Doobie Brothers) studio with my wonderful co-writer, Grady Walker, and my producer, Dave Bechtel, finishing up our song “Go Slow” - which I think you will enjoy quite a bit. It so happens Michael is in town, and stopped by the studio … so I performed “Go Slow” on the piano and he said he enjoyed the song and loved my voice! What a treat … you don’t get to sing to a legend every day!
Speaking of legends … THIS saturday I am performing at a private function along side Victoria Banks, Carolyn Dawn Johnson, Patricia Conroy and many up & coming canadian artists! It’s very encouraging seeing Canadian Songwriters/Artists being celebrated in Nashville. It should be an awesome time and I’m really looking forward to playing with that calibre of talent!
So many amazing things in such a short time, it’s hard to believe most of this is normal to everyone who lives here. I believe it just makes me more appreciative of the opportunities I’ve been given and hopefully I’ll be blessed to get into more amazing things while I can! December is coming so fast, and soon I’ll have to say goodbye to Nashville. Until then … stay in touch, keep checking up, and I will update soon!
