Hello Everyone!
It's time. Let's do this. We are 6 months+ into this pandemic pandemonium. If you don't like what's "Shakin' Down" then you can help shake things up.
MUSIC HAPPENINGS "Shakin' Down" is out now! Wherever you like to stream or download music, you can find it. Whether it's Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, SoundCloud, etc, you can listen to my first original release in 5 years!!!
It was an incredibly wonderful experience to write with Tom Whall and he did a brilliant job of producing it. This is also the first time I have ever recorded my own vocals from home (thanks COVID-19) and now I feel more empowered then ever to do more music out of my own home studio. Every time you stream, download or share this tune, you help voter advocacy in this country. Proceeds from "Shakin' Down" will go to The Equity Alliance and Spread the Vote. In a time where many feel bound to their homes, their voices and votes are what they have and this is how I will use mine.
Now, this isn't all. I have another song, "Patient," being released into the world. This is my first stab at production and all of the tracking was done by yours truly from my home except for the cello that was done by the brilliant, Ward Williams, up in NYC. Thank goodness for Ryan Youmans' engineering and production skills for taking what I did and making it sound the way it should. More on that in September.
No Sass Creations: Bolos and More
I am still "rocking" along in the bolo/NoSassessory world and really getting into the button cover look. If you don't want want the full-blown, committed bolo style, then the throwback button cover is the answer. I have posted quite a few but here are a few of my "rockers." None of them break $10.
Random Stories, Thoughts, Ideas
I realize the impetus for my political action may come as a surprise to many as I have never brought it up in my music before but maybe the next few pictures will help explain.
Wrap It Up, Mary
I think I just gave you all more info than you ever expected to have from this bolo tie-making musician. Please stream, share and download "Shakin' Down." I hope you enjoy it. I hope you'll stay in touch! For any other information you can always go to my website, facebook, instagram, etc. As always, I appreciate your support so much more than you know.
