Hi everyone!
I am 1-day old in vault-years. I like what I see/hear. Like most of you, I've been writing, recording and performing for years. But this is a new adventure and I'm truly excited to take it with you.
I'm going to introduce myself by playing one of my songs that most closely shows my 'wheelhouse' - 'Something to Say'. https://youtu.be/zzBDx0IBNm0 It's a song that delves into what ordinary people find in themselves that allows them to become heroes. Where I hope for YOUR help is to shape this new one...'Here'. https://youtu.be/jOn-PLEyjgU It's just at demo stage. And I purposely attempted to get away from my wheelhouse to something more contemporary. Is it contemporary? I've played it for a few people. Feedback is mixed: primarily I'm hearing that the format isn't normal or clearly defined...it seems to meander. I'm still in the honeymoon stage.... so, I love it. How could I make it less meander-y. More verse/refrain-y? Or should I? I see that I've typed a lot! Is this too much for a first post? Let me know.
Thx,
Tom
