    Photo Gallery from the Recording Studio! Good vibes. =)

    Hello, Friends!

    Hope you're enjoying the day...and if not, I hope this will be a cheery ray of light in your day.

    This morning, we attended and lent musical inspiration to a Conference on Youth Violence Prevention in St. Paul. It was a meaningful morning and we were very well received. So now, we are finally getting some other work done here to share with you!

    Here's the link to see the gallery of work done yesterday at the Library Recording Studio. We had a great time, got a couple more scratch tracks laid and worked on more song structures.

    In this 5 Day Count Down VLOG (Video-Blog) I share more on our influences and inspirations as we approach this album quite differently from the first. ENJOY!

    I hope to do a short video each day as we come down the home stretch.

    Thank you again for being a part of this project. I know I've already said it many times, and you can be sure this won't be the last...this is a community effort to be sure and we are grateful for your love, belief and strength in coming together.

    PeaceGoodnessGrace to you and yours always,
    Heatherlyn

    quick hello and what's to come

    Good Morning, Friends.

    Woke up thinking about our backers this morning and just wanted to send a Hello! Thanks again for getting on board, supporting our work and art and getting us to over 20%. We are so grateful and also glad that there are 16 days remaining for others to get on board! Thanks again for posting and sharing with others what we're up to. You are where it's at since we have no big machine pumping out flashy glamorous promos and hype...it's our friends and supporters who make it happen. And that's cool, because it starts with people who really want the music and care about why it's being made.

    Today, Jason and I set out for Stockholm, WI to perform at the Arts Fair. We had another outdoor venue this past week in a wonderful family environment and there's a great photo gallery of that community time here. >> http://heatherlynmusic.smugmug.com/Music/Events/Prospect-Park-Community/12930066_qkccB#934597971_EVe6Q

    This coming week will be a couple of service learning gigs with youth, a volunteer gig on behalf of the Fallout Urban Arts Center (http://www.falloutminneapolis.com/ of Source MN - an organization reaching unhoused youth on the streets of Mpls) and more networking and practicing and prepping songs for pre-production with Matt. We plan to take some photos the next time we're in the studio to share with you all.

    Hope you enjoy the weekend whether with family or friends at work or at play.

    Peace.Goodness.Playfulness.Hope.
