The Recording

The Recording

Three weeks ago, I was in Melbourne recording 2 songs that I have co-written.

The songs I recorded are Rise and Princess Heart, these are songs about my journey.

I had the most amazing experience, I kept on saying this is my dream.

I recorded at The Song Store in Melbourne and it was the most surreal experience.

For the song Rise I wanted it to be acoustic, so my music mentor Merelyn organised for Bill who lives in Queensland to play the piano. Oh, my goodness what he did with the song was amazing.

I think amazing is my word for this experience.

Then she organised Brett Wood to play the guitar on both my songs and yes you guessed it he was amazing.

The song Princess Heart is also acoustic and I wrote that song in 2009 at my very first mentor session with Merelyn at her house.

I did not want to finish the song it was hard, because it was my story, we finished it. Merelyn and her husband David helped me to revise it.

I wrote the song Rise with Paula from Jetty Road, on a songwriting retreat that I attended last October.

I am so blessed by how both songs have turned out and how they sound.

It was even better then what I ever thought it would be.

Now I am in the process of getting all my socials ready for release.

I am not sure when, but stay tuned.

I have a photo shoot this weekend, which is also a first and I have to get a few other things organised.

It is journey but it is an amazing, incredible and I just cannot believe this journey.

As I have said to friends, it is was a pinch me moment.

I can’t wait to share the songs with you.

Will share more soon.

Sunday

 

This weekend I have really enjoyed the space to create.

#spacetocreate came about out of #marchchallenge2014.

I have had time to create art, to have a bit of a clean out, to blog and to prepare for the week ahead. I have also recreated my creative space and I have had time to clean my house.

Sunday has been a nice relaxing day and I am going to embrace these days. They are days when you are creating memories, when you can take the time to reflect on your dreams and goals. I love the fact that I don’t have to be anywhere at any particular time. These days are needed and I value them.

I have decided that I want to continue to write, to blog, to continue songwriting and to learn as much as I can.

I want to be able to embrace every day and learn from it.

I also want to keep on learning, I love learning, I really do, and it motivates me.

 

What inspires you to create?

 

Do you have a special place you like to create?

 

What motivates you to create?
