Ocean Grove in 2012
Tis the season to stop typing about myself and start using my hands to give.
I FOUND THE PERFECT PLACE!
Back to the Writing Sarcophagus
I don’t need space. I need silence and retreat. Inspiration hits me when there is no visual or audible distraction. For this reason, I tend to write music in very small rooms.
My friend, Brian (@BrianWertheim), laid down an acoustic pass of chords yesterday. I immediately had a melody for the verse and chorus, but I knew the words wouldn’t come until I entered the writing sarcophagus.
So, today I spent an hour in there. And I’m excited to say that the verse and chorus are penned.
I cannot wait to share this song with you. It’s unlike anything I’ve ever written. In the meantime, you can check out my journey as an artist. My EP “Beat The System” is on iTunes now! CLICK HERE!
That’s all!
Best,
Alyson
