The dates this year are freaky-- so many prime numbers.
Anyway, today I went to Groove Tunes Studios to record my other new song "2 Find U" - the second time in the studio was easier-- less pressure and fear of the click today.
I'm really excited to keep working on this EP project-- look for "To Find U" to be on my Reverb site later this week!
Cheers!

2-12-11 Here comes the sun!
I love that Beatles' song and I love the sun.
I'm a West Coast girl, so it's rough when there's no shine in the sky.
It's been a wild week since publishing my first article for Examiner.com. I had the privilege of interviewing Jordan Lally of Fiction 20 Down and chatted about important issues facing indie musicians-- EP vs. LP, big labels vs. remaining independent, the sacrifice of going on the road. I so enjoyed speaking with him and he was extremely gracious. If you haven't made plans, head out to the Masquerade tomorrow to see Fiction 20 Down, Ballyhoo, and Iration. Here's a link to my article about Jordan and F20D in case you're interested: No regrets for Jordan Lally of Fiction 20 Down
Today, I ventured into my garage...thinking it'd be a good day to be outside getting something done. I got as far as a box of my old writing and let myself get distracted by some of my quirky poetry. I've uploaded one of my favorites: "Peas-- A Play in Ten Acts" Click on the poetry button above if you'd like to peek at the Peas...And I retyped the poem with Lollipop sleeping on my lap, so that's the new profile pic here.
Tomorrow it will be warmer..and the next day warmer than that. I'm excited. I'll get that garage cleaned out by March 1st. I'm sure of it.

2-7-11 What a day!
Wow! I am in awe of this day. First, I was able to spend my day at Groove Tunes Studios in Alpharetta with owner/engineer Eric Tunison, recording for my CRAZY EP project that I've just begun, a project inspired in part by the RPM Challenge promoted by Eddie's Attic. Visit his page by clicking the link to see pictures and learn more about Groove Tunes Studios!
This was my first studio session and while I can't say it's not work, Eric made everything smooth and easy. I learned so much in just this first session and I can't wait for the next session, scheduled on 2/14/11. Today, I recorded my new song "Crazy," the title track to the project. I plan to have free CD's of this song later this week to share at my upcoming performance at the Decatur Library this Thursday night and at the Woodstock Coffee House on 2/18/11. Please visit my Reverbnation site for more details on upcoming shows.)
And the next BIG NEWS: When I arrived home and checked my email, I had a message that my first article, "What is an Indie Artist--Not the Black Eyed Peas" has been published on Examiner.com! I am now officially an Examiner with the title "Atlanta Indie Music Examiner" and will be posting multiple articles weekly. Click on the article title to read this article and please subscribe to my page! Please contact me at jeanniecaryn@gmail.com if you have a topic or know an Indie Artist you'd like to see me cover.
So, as I said, what a day!! I wonder what will happen tomorrow?
