Hope you enjoyed the 3-day weekend! If you didn't have off for MLK Day I don't mean to rub it in your face. I know a lot of people still went into work. We had a beautiful weekend in Nashville. The sun was shining and the temperature was between 50-60 degrees. Thank God for the break from the grey! I never realized, but Nashville is known for periods of gloomy, grey during the winter. If your mood is affected by the weather, like mine, it can be a little depressing at times. However...it looks like another blue skies, sunny and 60 ahead, so I'll soak it in before the cold comes back.
Speaking of having off yesterday, I had off from school but I took advantage of the day to do some writing. I had a great session at Liz Rose Music on Music Row. I wrote another one with the wonderfully talented, Jesse Walker and a new co-writer by the name of Alyssa Bagley. Alyssa is a young country artist with a fantastic voice! She's in the process of writing and recording songs for a debut album. She has a killer team of people championing her career, including Liz Rose herself, among others! Just a side note, if you're unfamiliar with, Liz Rose, she basically co-wrote every song on Taylor Swift's first album!! A very talented person to have on your team, to say the least! Anyway, yesterday's co-write was great. I brought in a vocal melody and piano riff that ended up a fully finished song in less than 3 hours. It's an uplifting, uptempo country song about moving on strong after a bad break-up. Very cool!
Tonight, I have a session with a new co-writer by the name of Chris Yurchuck. Looking forward to it!
Stay tuned this week! :)
CHAPTER 2: NASHVILLE - The purpose of this blog is to network with at least 1 music industry professional every business day for 365 days with the goal of "making it" as a songwriter/recording artist. Below I will document my efforts, successes, failures and lessons learned daily. Stay tuned!
