My word for this year is-

                                             Rise

This year I want to Rise, Rise to be creative.

I want to Rise and have amazing adventures.

Last year I went on a songwriting retreat it and wrote a song called Rise.

This year I am really excited as I will be recording my song Rise in April.

I have been in a recording studio before, it was to do vocals over a song that I had written. It was a demo. With my song Rise I will be recording in Melbourne and I am totally out of my comfort zone.

This time it will be different in the recording studio, because I want to release 2 songs and they will be professionally produced.

Sometimes I feel that I need to pinch myself, this is my dream.

I want my songs to make a difference.

I have always wanted to make a difference.

I will take you on the journey as the countdown to Melbourne begins.

In just over 6 weeks I will be there.  AARRGG!

Yesterday I had a session with my music mentor who lives in Melbourne and we worked out how we want the songs to sound.

There is so much to think about and do before you actually go into the recording studio.

I have worked on a different arrangement for my song Princess Heart, which I love.

Now I just need to practise my songs and I will probably have some singing lessons before I go over as well.

Next Monday I will be performing at an open mic and singing some covers.

I will share more soon.
