Today’s the day! My new single “Ocean” is now available on my online store! So excited to have new music for you guys, and for an excuse show off my vertical leap (who said white girls can’t jump!) 
Good news for early birds — the first 10 people to download “Ocean” get a free digital download of the Drugs EP.
Happy early summer! More new music is in the works, so stay tuned!
Yesterday I announced that my new single “OCEAN” will be released next Tuesday, April 23! I love the energy of this song, and feel like it’s very appropriate to kick off the summer season that is fast approaching (it can’t come soon enough for me — this lady was not built for cold weather!). I had so much fun recording this song with Paul Ebersold, master engineer/producer (3 Doors Down, Sister Hazel), firery red-headed Texan, and all-around good dude. We recorded at his studio in Nashville’s Sound Kitchen, where the likes of many-a famous musician has recorded over the years. The halls are lined with white plates that artists and bands who’ve recorded there have signed and personalized. Gotta admit that I geeked out the hardest over the plate signed by identical twin hair-metal duo Nelson, complete with caricature of themselves (see photo below). Paul rounded up some of his favorite players, and they knocked the whole song out in less than a day! Definitely the fastest recording experience I’ve ever had, and one of the most enjoyable. I can’t wait for y’all to hear this one!
I’m a nominee in the 12th Annual Independent Music Awards! My song “Hello, Christmas!” is nominated for Best Holiday Song, a category that I won a couple of years ago. Holiday songs are so much fun to write. With this one, I tried to channel a little bit of another Tennessee diva‘s trademark sass and shiny optimism. A big thanks to exceptional guitarist Matt Tutor for playing on this track. Go here to view all five of this year’s nominees!
