DAY - 343-345

This week has been a whirlwind of great writing sessions.  Finished up the song with Suzie Brown.  It turned out really cool.  Bluesy, folksy, singer-songwriter type tune that Suzie sings perfectly.

Yesterday, I had a great writing session with Adam Ollendorff and a new co-writer by the name of Alex Berger.  We worked at Adam's wood-laden, loft apartment/recording studio.   Super cool place with a great vibe.  Not to mention, some very talented gentlemen!  Adam, besides being a fantastic writer/producer, happens to play for some of my favorite Nashville artists, Kacey Musgraves and Will Hoge.  Alex is a piano-driven, singer-songwriter from London, England.  He moved to New York city to record a critically acclaimed album and has found himself here in Nashville.  If you haven't heard Alex Berger's music check him out!  www.alexbergermusic.com

I brought in a catchy song start.  It was merely a vocal melody sung over piano chords with some small lyrical thoughts.  In a few hours, we turned it into a fully written and produced Pop song in the vein of "The Wanted".   While Alex and I we're coming up with lyrics and melodic ideas, Adam was simultaneously producing a track and throwing out lyric/melodic suggestions from across the room.  Looking forward to doing it again!

Stay tuned!
