I'm grateful. I'm grateful because life rocks. I'm grateful because love rocks. And I'm grateful because I am simply blessed beyond measure. That's it for today. I hope you're having a terrific day. :-)
With love always,

amazed...
This is just a quick note to say how grateful I am for the incredible people I'm getting to work with on this album. Today, I had the privilege of working with the amazing Rob Peck, formerly of the band Sister Hazel. Rob's an incredible musician and an all-around great guy. I'm so glad he agreed to be a part of this album and I'm truly blessed to have his signature style and 'heart' on this project. Thanks Rob - you're amazing!!
I'd also like to thank Jimi Pappas for coming out to play today! :-) Jimi is a great friend and a fantastic musician/artist/songwriter. I met Jimi in 2004 and have been blessed enough to call him a friend ever since. He's the one who actually introduced me to my outstanding producer, Frank Starchak. :-) When you listen to many of the songs on this album, you'll hear Jimi's great playing and vocals. Jimi - you make me smile ALL the time - thanks for being you!!
Adrian Sutton - Adrian is another amazing friend as well as a producer/sound engineer at my recording studio, Urban Soundz. I had a blast singing with you today, Adrian!!! 'Ba-dee-ya!' You ROCK!!! THANK YOU!!!
Riley Connell - is yet another incredible friend and a fantastic sound engineer! He's a new addition to the Urban Soundz family and I'm so happy to have him!! Riley - you're such a welcome addition to the 'family' and I can't thank you enough for your input and presence. You've completely 'Roadhoused' my sessions and I LOVE it!! :-)
Frank Starchak - has been my producer since 2005. I've recorded 3 albums with him and we're still going strong. This album we're working on now is our most ambitious project so far and we're having a blast with it! Frank - you know how I feel about you, 'Dad'! I wouldn't be who I am (both personally and as an artist) without YOU!! Love ya!!
These are just a handful of the incredible people I'm blessed enough to be surrounded by when I go to 'work' at the studio. I say it every time I post and it's true EVERY time - I simply can't wait to share this album with all of you!!!
Love always,

Every time..
You know, every time I think I'm ALMOST finish with this album, I find that there's more to do! AND - I'm loving EVERY minute of it! Every time I listen to one of the songs that's going to be on the new album, I find some more mixing to do, or parts to add, or vocal tracks to sing...I've never felt quite so creative in the studio and I'm SO grateful for it!! Also, Frank Starchak (my incredible producer, 'dad', and all around great guy) and I are like a well-oiled machine. We're finishing each others sentences these days and we're always on the same wavelength when it comes to the music. One of us gets an idea (usually a crazy one - lol!) and we just go with it. Minutes later, it turns into something completely cool and we're both in love with it. I'm SO blessed to be working with such an amazingly talent and the music that's coming out of that studio is really incredible. I know I've said it a million times before, but I'll say it again - I can't wait to share this new album with all of you!
Stay tuned...more updates soon!!
Love always,
