New Album On Its Way!

I finally have the songs in hand. Album artwork is being printed. Shows are beginning to be booked.

It's about to get CRAZE-BALLS!! (God-willing.)

Here is the cover image for Shiloh. Photo by the fabulous David Bean, and layout and artwork created by the incredibly talented Alyssa Butler:

The goal is to have a release date either December or January at the latest. I will first release it to my amazing donors to my successful Kickstarter campaign. Two weeks after that, I will release it to the world! Or at least to people who are interested. :P

I hope that this album gives you good stories, good melodies, good sounds, and some Southern soul straight from the G-A. But more than anything, I hope that it makes you FEEL. Whatever comes up, whatever you need to feel, that you are free to feel any and all of it through Shiloh. 

 


THANK YOU for your support!!! 

 

 

That Frozen Man

Yesterday, the hubs and I took our Sunday to record 3 swampy new songs (acoustic versions) I've written for my album (the album that is being funded by the most wonderful lil' buddies in the world, via our successful Kickstarter campaign!). So, I've written a few more songs to add to the consideration list. Today, I posted song #1. Tomorrow I'll post #2 and Wednesday I'll post song #3. Then, I'll post some bloopers, but that's not 100% guaranteed as of yet. They're pretty humiliating bloopers. I'm sure you would find them funny, because let's face it, humiliating things are hilarious. So, without further adieux, here's song #1 - Frozen Man

I would love to know what you think of it. Especially if you like it. :P

And if you're interested, here are the lyrics!

 

Frozen Man

Music by Jessie Smith Minnigan Lyrics by Simone Simonton and Jessie Smith Minnigan

 

Cold hands, cold heart

you used to melt me in your arms

where has all of your passion gone

i need that fire back, make me burn

I Can’t seem to leave, don’t wanna stay 

held together by just this pain

can you convince me you wanna change?

is this worth enough to save?

CHORUS

Never gonna be satisfied

Never gonna be satisfied

Never gonna be satisfied

With a frozen man

 

i’m not saying it’s all your fault

i plead guilty to building walls

i wanna love you, but it’s so damn hard

you won’t see me beg or crawl
