New Song Recorded in Sweden with the band…
Flew over to Sweden in March to record my first cover song. June is the 25th anniversary of the Meredith Brooks hit song Bitch. I toured with Meredith in the 90’s performing on stage as a back up singer and opening for her at several of her concerts. I watched Meredith perform the song opening for the Rolling Stones in Argentina and then at many festivals in Europe such as Roskilde in Denmark, Glastonbury in England and Rockpalast in Germany. It was an anthem that resonated with women (and the guys were singing too!) all over the world.
I will be releasing the song this week with a video recorded in the studio in Sweden with the band. It was so fun to sing it and I must say it felt good to embrace it so many years later. I will post when released.
Taking Time to Teach
My recording career has taken a bit of a backseat the past 15 years. I have instead poured my soul into teaching, but more importantly, into young musicians that needed an outlet in the ever dreary public school system. Advocating for music education and finding partners to fund it has been my main goal. It has been a long and sometimes beyond exhausting task, but I feel the foundation has been set and I am ready to pass the baton!
Looking forward to writing and performing my own music again and eventually, touring. So far my life has been marked by phases of creativity. I feel I am about to enter yet another phase. One giant step at a time!
