I'm a Finalist in the New England Songwriting Contest !
"Bubble of Love" has been chosen as one of the top twenty entries to the New England Songwriting Contest at the Ossipee Valley Music Festival in Cornish Maine!
I co-wrote this song last year with Jeff Trippe; Jeff is a good friend and a major presence in the local Maine music scene. I am so grateful to Jeff for the terrific job he did setting my lyrics to music! You can hear this song by visiting the "SONGS" link on this webpage - "Bubble of Love" is the last song on the music player (scroll down a bit!)
I'll be performing "Bubble of Love" in the songwriting contest, on Sunday, July 25, at the Ossipee Valley Music Festival. The contest starts at noon, and will last all afternoon. I'd love to see you there - you won't regret coming to this great music festival, I can guarantee you that.
I am very excited to be a finalist in this contest - I've been submitting songs to songwriting contests for more than ten years, and this is my first time to be chosen as a finalist!
Nashville Flood Benefit is a Success !
I'm happy to report that the benefit show that Barry Martin (proprietor of Blue) and I put together was a success! We raised just over $300! The money has been sent to MusiCares, a non-profit charity that helps songwriters and musicians in times of need. Musicares has set up a special Nashville Flood Relief fund, and that's where this money is headed!
Thanks so much to Barry Martin of Blue, and of course, also to Carolyn Currie and Jay Basiner, for their contributions of time, energy, talent, and money to help this cause.
A special thanks to Putnam Smith, who filled in as M.C. for me at the last moment, and to Steve Bradford, who designed the concert poster and special web page!
And, most important of all, thanks very much to the folks who came to the show and helped us raise this money! Without you, none of this would have made any sense at all - thanks so much!
My Second YouTube Video!
I have recorded a second video of me performing one of my original songs - this one is "My Key Still Fits Your Lock"
This is the original version of a song that I am working to improve and change to make it more commercially viable.
Let me know what you think!
