Well, I'm just a bit excited... I got a definite thumbs-up yesterday - I'm getting my first song cut!!
My song "My Sisters" is being cut by Mollie and Jackie Singer, 19-year old twin girls from Las Vegas AND their mom / aunt, also Mollie and Jackie, and also twins! As for the younger twins, besides being gorgeous guitar-playin' singers, they are also 4.0-carrying college students studying Music at UNLV, and busy advocates for diabetes research, having already raised over half a million dollars! Their TV credits include MSNBC, CNN, CBS Early Show, ABC News, Sunday Morning with Charles Osgood, and Good Morning America. Print interviews and features include USA Today, the New York Times, L.A. Times, Chicago Tribune, Washington Post, Boston Globe, New York Times Up Front Magazine, Girls' Life, The Las Vegas Review Journal, Time Kids, and most recently in Teen Vogue and Justine magazines in a MUDD Jeans national advertising campaign. They have performed at the National Finals Rodeo, Thomas and Mack Stadium, and the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
I never imagined that I'd even record this song - much less that it would be my first cut! I literally wrote this song while behind the wheel of a UHaul driving to Nashville, with tears streaming down my face as I realized I was leaving my family behind. When I played it for my producer following a long-winded disclaimer about its silliness, he immediately replied that we were cutting the song. I was truly shocked - but what a good call!
The song and lyrics are on my page - check them out and leave a comment for me to let me know what you think!
