I agree with people who say that music is medicine. Music is the glue that holds my family together. My dad is a musician. All 3 of my sister's play an instrument or are in a band. Volume was never really an issues in our home especially if Mom and Dad liked it. (Eminem )
Every Sunday for a few hours my friend Mike comes over and I am taken to a happy place. We roll a joint, I sing and he strums along beautifully on his guitar and it is magical. Sometimes writing music can be frustrating. My process for putting lyrics to Mike's vocals takes time. I usually record the riffs he gives me and play them throughout the week and whistle different melodies over the tune until I find one that fits. The last thing I do is write the lyrics. We have 6 covers and 3 originals that you can watch here.
Every time I create something with Mike around my kitchen table I am instantly energized. Singing keeps me happy. It is truly my outlet.
