Okay, I can't believe I'm saying this, but my first-ever professionally recorded song is now available for purchase!!!! Here's the link in case you're interested:
Empty Hands
The inspiration for this particular song came from a watercolor painting I saw on a high school art tour, entitled "The Hands of Haiti". It had been painted shortly after the huge earthquake they had down there a couple of years ago, and the painting haunted me for months after I saw it. The image of those empty, reaching hands simply would not leave my mind. What struck me the most about it was that the hands were, indeed, empty, and they looked like they were waiting for something.
Thus, my single (OH MY GOSH!!!!) was born. I wondered aloud who was going to fill those hands, wondered whether maybe I would be able to. And so I wrote it all down, played it for a few people, took note of their critique, and then talked to a friend of mine who has a recording studio. He helped me with the details, and I've just been working on making it available to the public. And now....it finally is!! And I am officially a published indie artist!!!! :D (Feel free to celebrate with me if you'd like.)
