DAY - 103

"20/20" has officially been pitched to Darius Rucker!  Just heard today from Jason Blume. (refer to last couple days)  Got a foot in the door... now let's keep our fingers crossed and say a prayer they let us in :)
If you haven't heard "20/20" yet you can check it out here... http://mynameisaugust.bandcamp.com/track/20-20

Also, just sent an email to J Fred Knobloch today to set up another session and talk about recording our new tune.  After reviewing a ton of Darius Rucker's new material, I have a feeling this new tune would be an even stronger pitch to Darius than "20/20".  We'll see if we can get it recorded in time.

Just read this little excerpt today from Bob Lefsetz newsletter and found it inspiring.  I think its not only  relatable to music, but really, any field or career path...


"When asked what her advice usually is to aspiring singers, she says it boils down to three words that she learned early on herself and have been her guide: You are enough.

'You are enough. You are always enough. You don't ever have to pretend to be anything other than what you are. All you have to do is deeply embrace who you are and you'll be fine,' she says.

'In life, aren't you drawn to the more authentic people? Of course. You're not drawn to phonies.'"
