Thanks to Brendan McCourt and BPM Live Sessions for featuring me on their series. Here's a look at "Run" - a song I wrote about how anxiety wreaks havoc in my life sometimes. Enjoy, and try not to have a panic attack. Lyrics:
1. one drop of water and the lake still shakes stomping my boots but the mud's still caked i gotta find a way to let this go a pile of bricks sticking to my chest weighing me down, they will not decongest i tried to kill this ache but still it grows chorus how do i breathe now? there's no air in my lungs how do i climb down? this ladder's out of rungs how do i slow down? when all i ever did was all i ever did was run? 2. should i be drinking?now, well probably not order a whiskey cause it's worth a shot maybe i'll drown this fear before it drowns me trouble with worry is it won't get gone cause you can never put your finger on something you feel but you can not see repeat chorus I'm excited to share that I'll be presenting at this month's San Diego Songwriter Meetup on the topic of DIY Publicity. I will be sharing few stories of how I've developed publicity over the last decade as an independent artist. Learn a little about working with publicists and a lot about becoming your own publicist. Discover different types of media outlets, how to reach them, and what they're looking for in a pitch. I will also talk about creating your own news, maximizing each piece of press, and building genuine relationships.
This is the fist sing along song I've ever written in my whole life! I was honored to be invited to perform at the 2019 Women's March in San Diego, and while I have a host of politically inspired songs, they all leaned toward rage. And while there's definitely a place for rage in protest marches and in protest music, I wanted to write something specific for the occasion that was also unifying, family-friendly, and very easy to sing along. Still, I didn't want it to be all rainbows and sunshine, so I made sure that the lyrics touched on the strength of women who work together to achieve results, the fact that women have the right to govern their own bodies, the fact that we are becoming more and more fearless in our unity, the fact that we need to be intersectional and fight for the rights of all marginalized people, and the strength of women as a voting body. I managed to get all that in without saying the F-word one time! I'm pretty proud of myself. I do have plans to record this song professionally with a full women's choir.

Here's a little tune I wrote about the frustration I felt after cutting ties with a religion whose followers didn't seem to be embodying the things I felt were most beneficial to being a person of faith (for example, loving everyone, having compassion, not judging people). Somehow I feel like those people get to keep god in the custody battle even though they demonstrate behavior that my idea of god would abhor. Sometimes you just gotta have a stern talk to god and tell her you're worried about the people she's been hanging out with. Lyrics:
1. quit hanging out with those friends they mess with your reputation as long as they keep judging what they think is a sin i just can't stand for them 2. quit letting them spoil your name don't you feel like you're being framed? they shoot you like bullets of blame and i don't like their aim don't you feel the same? 3. i'd love it if you could come back not just airplanes and panic attacks i just don't think that it would last considering our past so i don't even ask 4. they say every day that they serve you they're lying cause they got the nerve to make me feel like i don't deserve you i got no one to turn to god dammit i urge you 5. to quit hanging out with those friends they mess with your reputation i don't like to give ultimatums but i fuckin' hate 'em why'd you even create 'em? quit hanging out with those friends |
