Writing for other artists

Lately I have been working on some songs for a songwriter in LA that has connections to some big time producers there.  The hope is to get a demo into the hands of a certain female singer and have her record it for her next CD.  It is funny singing these early demos, especially when they are sung from the female perspective.  I think my testosterone is getting in the way of an inspired performance lol!  Got the fingers crossed…

Jammin’ and Fear Zero on www.sellaband.com/fearzero

Had a fun time last night at my buddies b-day party. Sometimes it’s fun to just get together a bunch of ragtag musicians and play music for the sake of music, no worries about playing music people can dance to, or making sure you don’t play anything too crazy and get fired from the gig lol. We just created for a solid 2 hours, making up songs, melodies, chord progressions and then improvising over all of it. 5 minute long solos, 15 minute long jams centered around creativity. I always have fun doing that sort of stuff and I don’t get to often enough as life gets in the way of that (gotta pay the bills).
