New Song on The Carrie Diaries & More!

Bonjour! Goodness gracious, December is here! I hope it’s treating you so well so far. I know it’s only been a matter of days since I last wrote, but I’ve got more fun things to tell you about! Hope you don’t mind...

INVISIBLE CHILDREN

I've teamed up with my pals Invisible Children in their #zeroLRA campaign, which is about helping kidnapped women, children and abducted soldiers return home safely to their families. I would be so very honored if you’d consider lending a hand and helping us do some good this holiday season! Please visit my fundraising page, here!

NEW COVER SONG ON CARRIE DIARIES!

Guess what! (You'll never guess...) I recorded a cover of an 80’s song called “The Safety Dance” (originally sung by Men Without Hats) and tomorrow night (12/6) it’ll be featured on the Sex in the City prequal TV show The Carrie Diaries on The CW!

A couple months ago, I was asked to record a melancholic version of this super fun song for the show and I had such a blast putting it together! So honored to be a part of The Carrie Diaries and hope you’ll tune in tomorrow!

My recording of “The Safety Dance” is available NOW on iTunes - would be delighted for you to hear it! Here!

It was mastered by dear friend, Chris Bethea. The lovely artwork is by the talented, Kyle Barrett.

FREE Christmas Album!

Hey again, friends! I hope you don’t mind us occupying a little more space in your inbox so soon after the last note! Got a few more fun things to announce…

FREE CHRISTMAS SONG (& ALBUM!)

As many of you may already know, each year I record a Christmas cover song and give it away for free. It’s my version of a Christmas card. This has been tradition for many years now… for so many in fact that it has accumulated (like snow) into a full on 13-song Christmas album, I call my Christmas Collection.

This year I chose the John Lennon and Yoko Ono classic, “Happy Xmas (War is Over.)” I had so much fun working on this one - such lovely melodies… it’s almost as if Mr. Lennon was a genius or something! ;) Such a great song. Anyway, I hope you enjoy my take on it and consider it a worthy addition to my ever-growing Christmas Collection.

Download “Happy Xmas (War is Over)” along with the entire Christmas Collection for FREE via the wonderful NoiseTrade!
