So, I drove to Nashville last night after the read-through. We need to get some new songs written. I’m starting a new project, but I want to have a new radio single before we leave for the UK/Kenya trip.
What a crazy and great day. I worked all morning on a song with my manager, Wally, and it’s done – I really like how it’s coming out, and really like co-writing, which is something I’ve not done before.
After that, we went and did a photo shoot all afternoon. Nothing says feeling pretentious like taking 300 pictures of yourself. Oh, well, at least I got cool earrings out of the deal. 🙂
After that, I went and co-wrote a song with Darwin Moody (Embassy Music). I wrote the chorus in the car on the way down to Nashville, and really liked it, so we worked on verses. He is pretty incredible with lyrics, and a great player – what fun! I really love how it turned out – can’t wait for people to hear it. It’ll be a great World Vision song too, so that’ll be helpful in my ministry.
I’m super tired now, but so excited about the new songs, I’m having trouble going to bed! That’s how you know I’m a music geek, ha!
