The Record Making Process

From conception to completion this record (We Had A Thing) has been a year in the making. In some way, I feel like I've been waiting all my life to make this record. I was lucky enough to connect with two co-writers that eventually produced the songs as well. Together, we took a journey filled with smiles, stress, and all things in between. It has been an amazing experience, and I am thrilled to finally share these words and notes from my heart with you.

Fear vs Excitement

I have been thinking a lot lately about the tiny, fine line between excitement and fear. I am embarking on a new stage of my career, and I am venturing into the unknown. It seems like every day is a battle between being scared or excited about all of the possibility and uncertainty I face. I think anytime we venture into new realms and are brave enough to take risks, it is natural to feel fear. The trick is not letting that fear take you over. One of my best friends says that change is uncomfortable. Anytime you are willing to take a leap in your life and make a change, it is going to be uncomfortable for a while. But at the end of that brave road are great rewards. So today, I choose to be excited, and NOT scared.

The Feist Concert

So I went to see Feist last night, and I decided I wanna be kinda like her when I grow up...hahaha. She is relaxed, confident, calming, beautiful, and her harmonies were amazing! The crowd was peaceful yet attentive.

I forget sometimes how important it is to go see shows like this...it always reminds me of the pure reason that I want to do this: to share love and music with others. Being in the audience or on stage is much the same-positive energy is shared from both directions; it is a much needed breath from the stresses of everyday life.
