I went to a new studio after hiring Kira MIchele a Singer/songwriter in the Tacoma area, to teach me marketing for my music. She knows how to market her music. Most importantly, she has the voice of an angel and she stirs you to laughter or tears depending on the song. To be able to learn how to get my songs heard and marketed, I turned to someone I knew was doing an excellent job at accomplishing her goals. If you get the time to listen to her music, you will not be disappointed.

When I walked into the Decade Sound Studio yesterday in Tacoma, I was first attracted by the comfort of the studio. It has everything musicians can possibly need. I am hoping to get pictures and a video made for my album, when it comes out. Having seen the video Shad Woodman is making for Kira, I know it will be of exceptional quality. I am very excited to be able to work with Kira’s manager, producer and camera man, Shad Woodman. They are a powerful duo.

I need to begin the promotion of my music soon. Chad Quist is an exceptional musician and producer and his talents are being wasted, along with mine, when we have so few viewers. I realize it may take time and I hope I do not run out of money before this journey is even started. I love the whole process of creating my music, having Chad produce it and play on it, as well as the other artists I hire, then releasing it on platforms. His talent and mine should be available to as many people as possible. Therefore, I am working on it by trying to learn everything I can, about the process.

One of my new songs I am currently working on is entitled, “Thinking about Leaving”. It is a song about the problems women face when their intimate other is a workaholic. Being alone is hard enough, but to have to give up intimacy when you are young enough to have needs, can be a deal breaker. Hoping to bring the issue to the listeners attention, I wrote this song.

The other song is about a Arab Stallion that a woman falls in love with and wants to train to jump. I have given it the title of “My One Desire”. A perfectly good name for a horse, too. I first learned to jump horses, at St. Benedict’s Equitation Academy. I had ridden every summer for two weeks in the High Uintas Wilderness area in Utah, with a trainer and learned to train horses as well, while working on a Bachelors and Masters of Science. I really do love a good horse and owned an Arab stallion, named Tambour (which means Drum). Unfortunately he loved the ladies so much, he ended up gelded.

Also, My song Southern Hurricane is due to be released on June 11, 2021. It is about a secure single woman entering her local bar to relax and maybe dance a few country dances. She sees a person she likes and decides to ask the good looking cowboy to join her in a dance. I have walked in her shoes a time or two.

I am continuing my journey as I bring you through the high an low moments of starting a singer/songwriter’s career. For the people out there that read my posts and listen to our music, I thank you all from the bottom of my heart! Music is my soul talking to yours,
