A couple of weeks ago, I had been working on recording a song my friend, Paul Muffoletto wrote called, "May I Dance?" at his studio, PM Music in Lafayette, LA. The tweeter on one of his studio speakers went out and was on backorder, so we had to delay finishing that project a little bit. The good news is the tweeter came in, his speaker is up and running again, and we can resume work on that song tomorrow. Paul is producing that song, and will be releasing it through CD Baby in the near future. He is a very good song writer! In the 1990s, he wrote the hook to Sammy Kershaw's hit, "Racing With My Heart", and I'm honored that he asked me to record, "May I Dance?" for his demo. He has a Christian album of his own songs/recordings coming out in June. He also does a very good Frank Sinatra tribute, and we did a Cher/Sinatra tribute show together a few times. I enjoy working with him.
Also, I will begin laying down the vocal to my original song, "Buzzards" tomorrow. This is a haunting song about the death of a love relationship. I suppose now I'm reaping the upside of having had some really bad heartbreaks in my younger life! The guitar arrangement and guitar solo in the song is sexy and very beautiful. It got a little bit of "Hotel California" feel to it. Connie G. and Creole Soul is interested in covering one of my songs, and this one I think would be a great fit for her soulful voice. She has a wide audience, so I'm hopeful this song or whichever other song she chooses will become familiar to people in Louisiana in time. I hope to have it ready to publish with BMI and release my version of it in the next week or two. Connie would knock it out of the park.
Also in the queue for recording is another song I wrote called, "No Place I'd Rather Be". I've been on a ballad kick lately, and this one is very romantic. I was inspired by the memories of when I met my husband on this one. If you like Eric Clapton's "Wonderful Tonight", you would like this song. It's got a similar tempo and vibe, but sounds completely different. It's got some really nice, tender pedal steel guitar effects in it.
Will let ya'll know when things are released! Have a fantastic day!
