POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

most of you know what a fan I am of @thegits_official and how one of my musical idols is Mia Zapata. when I found out earlier this year I was going to be playing in Seattle for the first time in December, I was excited that the idea of being able to play a guitar song in that city.

today I find out I’m gonna be playing on the same stage that the Gits played on in 1990. They may have played there more, but I know for sure they played there in 1990. So there’s a better than average chance I’ll be able to pay tribute to Mia by playing one of her songs somewhere she actually played the song herself.

I am so stoked right now. I needed this. by @jenniferplaysdrums

Had to share this because I'm so proud of myself.

I just wrote my first song!

Well, I have the lyrics written. I also know what I want the song to sound like because I can hear the music in my head. I just have to figure out how to get them from my head into the sonic realm without using AI because I refuse to use AI.

I was trying to figure a way to break out of this downward spiral my life/career/everything seemed to me in so I said to myself yesterday "you need to try to write a song since you have ideas come into your head all the time." So I focused on it and I did it.

I'm sure it's not great and professional songwriters will laugh it off but I did it. The first one is done. Now to see if I can talk to some songwriters to get some advice on what I did right and wrong, and then try to improve for song 2. by @jenniferplaysdrums
