I didn't want to write about all of this until I knew for SURE it was going to come to fruition. Now I can announce, the photoshoot is set up for Tuesday (11/18). Mercede's of Columbus has graciously allowed us use of a 2009 convertible, Maple Ridge Golf Club has granted permission for us to use one of the greens for the shots and I have a fanastic looking model, Randi, who will be posing as my 'Supermodel Girlfriend" for my upcoming single, "It's My Lie (Let Me Live It)". I don't want to give a… Continue

FBA has taken a break. Whether or not they will join again is still up in the air. The drummer left for Berklee and the others are busy in their senior year. They only have one recent recording to show for their stent in the Columbus scene (engineer issues involving the engineer screwing them). All guitars for "Why No Country for Old Men Shouldn't Have Been a Musical" recorded by Chris Helms. Drums and vocals recorded by Steven Gowan. More recordings are planned to surface within the next few mo… Continue

So I was eating some toast this morning and decided I needed some jam with that... so I created Beatnik Jam. It's a new flavor concept which needs further experimentation before I deem it complete. No, it's not finished, but it's cool to jam to (and eat toast with.) - a

Wrote this one in my apartment at around 6:30 in the morning. I'm sure the neighbors were -very- pleased. The song's called "Follow". It's about the move down from Atlanta to Columbus. Yeah, it's a little harder than some of the other stuff you hear on my page, but I write whatever I feel like writing... that's the beauty of music, right? I purposefully didn't put a guitar or any solo work on there, so all you guitar players, feel free to come up with something appropriate and message me. Not s… Continue

It's been a while, but I finally got the bit of concentration I so desperately needed so I decided to write something I always wanted to do... a combo "space rock" and "gospel" song. I call it "Pathfinder." I will be playing in the Nashville Songwriter's Association event tomorrow evening at the Phoenix City Amphitheater (I'm guessing that's the name of it) with some very talented musicians. I consider it a very big honor to be asked to play with these guys (and gals.) I won't be playing any of… Continue

No, I didn't drop off the face of the earth, but then again, after the abysmal open mic the other night, I should. Finally got a temporary living space... an apartment, while we wait for our house to sell in Atlanta. Even better, I finally got internet. Only took 2 weeks to get someone to get over here and get me wired up. At least I can upload some new content. Music's been sort of on-hold for a couple of weeks for the reasons previously mentioned, plus, with the family down and no specific "… Continue

1. Now that the single is mastered, we must get the CD cover art done. Where is my model? I've got the props, but where is my model? Oh, yeah, she's in college and playing softball... 2. Buy PA worthy of small venues. 3. Find qualified and committed drummer, guitarist, bassist and possibly keyboard player for tour in spring. (I say this like it's easy, LOL!) 4. Ok, photoshoot completed, get the artwork to the printers and have press kits printed (with 8x10 photo, one page bio, quote sheet and… Continue

ROOTS MUSIC - True Country Charts All the hard work is paying off to some degree. I couldn't have done it without the support of all the independent, community based REAL RADIO out there! Look, Anita, you are actually accomplishing something! Thank you baby!

Music in Columbus' long-anticipated compilation CD "Ten Songs from the Edge of Georgia" is back from the manufacturer, then immediately sold the first 100 copies. The Columbus Convention and Visitor's Bureau purchased the order and will be on sale in the Columbus Visitor's Center at 900 Front Avenue in UpTown Columbus, Georgia. MusicInColumbus.org's first CD project delivers a pleasantly blended "jukebox/mixtape" audio journey weaving ten local artists from ten distinct musical genres into one… Continue
