The band I write for is heavy metal (actually nu metal, low-tuned guitars, not as wild as heavy metal), but my writing tends to lean toward country. I’m assuming this will end up in the country pile. They don’t want to lose me (plus they are very nice people) so for every 5 they do, they let me do one however I want, and they do background vocals and play the instruments. This one will most likely fall into that category.

Several that I’ve written and posted here, still bring me to tears when I sing them. If I post my bare vocal track, you’ll see I’m not a strong singer, I often sound like a chipmunk 🐿 and you’ll probably be able to tell where I’m holding back emotions because my pipes close up, so I’m off pitch or not as strong. And pretty much all my beginning are weak because I get nervous without music.

Probably more info than you wanted or needed! 💕
