Heyyy guys!
How are you all??
So sorry it’s been a while since we’ve written to you, but we’ve been
going crazy trying to get things moving at our label! Anyway, the other day I read this great article by Jonathen
Lethem called, The Ecstacy of Influence” and it got me thinking. His article talked about the importance
of artists sharing their work. He
explained that it is the influence and inspiration from older artists that
gives birth to new generations of artists. His article emphasizes the necessity for artists to share
their work in order to inspire other artists and keep the cycle going. It made me think of all of my
inspirations and how if it weren’t for them, I wouldn’t have ever picked up a
pen to write a song! So, I talked
to Brit and we decided to take Lethem’s advice. We decided that it is about time we share our creativity! We can’t wait around any longer for our
label to make a move, while they leave our songs sitting on their desks, while
all of our friends continue asking to hear more from us! I’m sorry if this makes them mad, but we’re
not waiting anymore! We’re taking
back the control! lol Every week or two, we’re going to put up
a new song for you guys to have.
Lethem wrote about “the gift-aspect of the creative act,” so our first
gift to you is our song BEAutiful, which we wrote about a year and a half ago
with The Dream. It is one of our
favorite songs, so we hope you guys like it too! Maybe it will inspire some of you to create something even
better!! Let’s keep the music coming!! :)
Last thing we want to leave you with is this quote from
Thomas Jefferson:
“He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction
himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives
light without darkening me.”
Love,
Brit and Alex
