Bonjour!
It is absolutely beautiful outside and that has put me in the absolute best mood today! I love love love rain and overcast days…but at the same time, fall is my favorite season…so if it’s pouring down rain, it’s a little hard to enjoy the outdoors! Running in the rain is a no-no for me.
I just thought I’d share with you guys some of the things that are going on!
First of all, I’m playing at a fundraiser this Saturday in Huntsville. It’s to raise money for asperger’s syndrome! There’s going to be a ton of music! (here’s a link with some information…..http://www.wlrh.org/Calendar/detail.asp?CalDateID=1488 )
The NEXT Saturday will be Making Merry in Berry Hill. It should be really fun! It’s in Nashville’s neighborhood/city of Berry Hill. It’s a really neat area, with lots of restaurants, shops, everything. It’s going to be a really good time! ( http://www.nowplayingnashville.com/event/detail/162339 )
And LAST Saturday..I am on a roll with these Saturdays!…I played at an event called Bark in the Park. It was to raise money & awareness about pet adoption! There were the most precious pound puppies I’ve ever seen! I cried! I wanted to take three home!! It’s such an amazing thing to adopt from local shelters! There are so many strays looking for good, loving homes! I encourage anyone looking for a companion to seriously consider it!
TONIGHT bah bah bah bahhhh…I’m recording vocals on Work I think. I’m super excited about it! Like, I’ve issued a challenge to myself to consistently improve on every song. I’m throwing down the gauntlet on myself. We’ll see how that turns out! hah. I started working with a vocal coach and I can already feel a difference just in the strength of my voice. It’s exciting! 
Sunday night I got to hear some rough mixes of my songs because we tracked the final guitars! I am so pumped! I was telling someone yesterday about this EP recording process. It’s so different than the CD! With the CD we did everything kindof on a roll…there’s nothing wrong with that….but I like getting to experience another method. I’m really digging this because even though it can seem like it’s being drug out, at the same time it’s like building blocks. We’re doing everything step by step. And the more we go along, the more the creative juices get to flowing.
I know I’ve said it before, but this is an extremely personal record. I cannot wait until it’s A. semi-finished so that I can hear it and B. COMPLETELY finished so YOU can hear it!
In a little while I’ll be heading down to sign a guitar for UNA to auction! and the rest of the day I’m spending with my grandparents who are in town! yayy.
Halloween Pictchhhaaa’s anyone?
