I’ve been writing quite a few songs lately about the general idea of making your own decisions and individualism. Those are certainly not new ideas but for many reasons, I think they are ideas that I really need to hear & embrace at this age & stage of my life and music career. Also, any time you can make a reference to Joan Jett and The Who in the first verse, it’s probably gonna be a fun song :)
I did the usual on this effort and recorded all the instruments, vocals, mixed and produced this song myself in my basement home studio but I did get the song professionally mastered. I often put my own mastering chain together for my recordings but lately, I’ve been quite pleased with the mastering work that others have been doing on my songs. Also in true Nashville fashion, this song was not one I wrote by myself but a co-writing effort with myself & three others. I met Alex Haddad & Larry Florman over at their East Nashville studio along with Smith Curry one afternoon and this song was the result. Alex & Larry have a great band called, Them Vibes and they are staples in the Nashville rock & funk scenes. It’s always a pleasure to connect with more and more of the music people in Nashville outside the edges of the traditional country machine that the town is known for. From what I’ve discovered, Music City is THICK with talent in any kind of music you might want. I think it just might be the best place in the world for me.
This and all my other songs can be found on Spotify or any of the other streaming platforms. I get asked about CD’s from time to time but at this point, I only have plans to release songs digitally. I’ve got lots more to come so thank you very much for all of your interest and support. If you follow me on Spotify, you will get a notification when I release any new song and the service even has a free version. This is a link that will take you directly to my Spotify landing page if you want to learn more: open.spotify.com/artist/2H62q...
Liking, saving and especially, putting my songs into playlists all increase the chances of Spotify deciding to share my music with a much larger audience so your support can absolutely make the difference in my success. Thanks again to all of you that have responded to my request for support on that platform. I see all the streams, saves and downloads and I can see the supporters that I have are streaming a lot and I really, really appreciate it.
I’m 16 years old, and I want to be a professional musician when I grow up. I try to play many instruments but the one that I feel most at home on is a drum set. I would say the only thing that impresses me more than a great musician is a great songwriter so I also spend much of my time trying to learn the magic of songwriting. I thought it would help me keep focused on music if I started a drum series where I learned a new song every couple of weeks. After 6 years, it’s now turned into a larger musical search but my goal hasn’t changed. Hopefully, I will keep doing it, keep loving music and keep getting better.
