I live my dream, I have a beautiful life and I know who I am. Nothing else defines me. I live, love and laugh with all my heart. I am passionate about giving to others. If there is someway I can help you, just ask. One of the greatest joys in my life comes from songwriting. The music dances wildly in my soul and with each new song I write, I grow into myself. I do what I love the most; express my inner most feelings and experiences in life through song. I've been fortunate enough to experience a great amount of success since moving to Nashville and pursuing music full-time. I write with talented artists and writers and have signed several single song contracts. Last year I was named "The Most Promising Female Songwriter" by the Tennessee Songwriters Association 2008 at their 26th Annual Awards Dinner and Banquet. I also hold a full-time job at an amazing Music Industry Company right in the heart of music row! Not only am I seeing success in the world of music but last year I got my first publication with Blue Mountain Arts printed in an anthology entitled: A Girlfriend Is A Sister You Choose" it took years of writing and hardwork to finally get published and I want to personally thank Jason Blume for encouraging me and mentoring me along the way. I attended many BMI workshops prior to and after moving to Nashville my very first year. Jason is one of my all time favorite mentors. However, one of my proudest accomplishments since moving to Nashville as well, was being chosen for Jeffrey Steele's 1rst Annual Bootcamp in August of 2006

I love Nashville and there are so many folks who encourage and support me that it would be impossible to mention them all but I love every one of them and I am truly grateful!

Sounds like a plan. haha. You just tell us when are where and we'll be there. I don't know if we have any awkward moments left but we'll try and scrounge some up. haha
Sure did, including seeing you! Hey what were the last names of the three dudes who played first? Like to add them to my entries of people I've seen play.
Thanks for the add! I'd love to hear what you think about my music. Keep checkin' my page for upcoming shows and updates! Next show in Nashville will be November 6th @ 12th and Porter. Hope you can make it out. Keep in touch....Ben.
Hey Melissa! Glad to meet yet another great fellow boot camp songwriter! Hope you are well. Drop by and say hello anytime. Hopefully we will catch you around town soon. Talk to you later, Jeremy
Welcome to my circle of friends. I look forward to getting to know you. Take care and have a fantastic day.
If you believe in what you are doing, then let nothing hold you up in your work. Much of the best work of the world has been done against seeming impossibilities. The thing is to get the work done.
Hey Melissa, I didn't make Jeffrey's Bootcamp, but thanks anyway for the well wishes. I see you'll be at the Listening Room Oct 23 and hope to catch your show if I'm not playing out myself that night. Best of luck to you.
Online!
