I met Kim Copeland (Music Row Producer) at a music conference in 09, I had been on her mailing list since that time. I decided to give her a call in Dec of 2012 to catch up and share some idea's about my newest work, several short weeks later, I was in the studio in Nashville with Kim and her amazing band of kickass musicians.
We cut 3 songs and it was such a rush to work with people of this level of talent. Oh, and a side note, personally, we got on exceptionally well, after all, I am from NJ! After cutting the music traks with the band, we then went to lunch with Kim, her business Partner Susan Tucker, and friend and outstanding singer/songwriter Rachel Williams. At the restaurant we ran into the legendary Writer/Producer/ASCAP mogul, Ralph Murphy, I told him \"thanks for the book, I have a copy in my backpack at the studio\" (you can't make this stuff up) it seemed like I may be a fish out of water in Nashville as I got caught up in the notion that \"its all country\" not so, its really \"all music\"The vibe I got is that everyone is a writer, musician, arranger, singer, and, or, some kind of artistic content provider, the place just vibrates music\u2026\u2026\u2026i wrote a new song 15 minutes before my Friday recording session in the hotel room and was almost late to the studio,......................\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..almost\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.Next trip was at the end of April, same lineup, Kim Producing, we produced 4 songs this time out, the experience intensified, and I felt like the band, myself, and Kim had a tighter understanding and connection to the music. I have already written 6 more songs for the next trip back, that is to eventually be the unveiling of my long awaited release \"Geography of the Soul\" the single will be available in a few weeks time at CDbaby, and Itunes.

The vibe I got is that everyone is a writer, musician, arranger, singer, and, or, some kind of artistic content provider, the place just vibrates music………i wrote a new song 15 minutes before my Friday recording session in the hotel room and was almost late to the studio,......................
