What's Happening (v. 9) - October 11th
Here's the scoop...
The Album: HOME
Sorry it's been so long since my last post - I've been waiting for some big news to report before I bored anyone with repeated jargon...
First BIG news, came as quite a shock to me too, so hold onto your britches - I'm pregnant with my third beautiful baby! It was a bit of an unplanned addition - making the tour for 2017 a little tricky to navigate - but no less an exciting adventure I wanted to share with you...
Next up, this Friday I'm heading down to Texas for phase 2 in the studio for our album, I can't wait to share updates about the weekend's events but we've got a heaping amount of material to work through - choosing the final cuts on the album, touching up phase 1's recordings and bringing in some additional instrumentation from our session playa friends - Greg Galindo, our amazing guitarist has got some serious shredding to add!
Finally, remember that TedxMileHigh event I auditioned for back in July? Well, while I'm not presenting for their October event (still on the roster for 2017's series), I was called upon to perform at the VIP Cocktail Party prior to the presentations held on Wednesday, October 26th in Denver! What an honor and blessing to receive the call to be part of the event (and it doesn't hurt that it relates to my presentation topic: SAGE DAMES IN MUSIC: CREATING A PLACE FOR WOMEN 35+). I'm waiting for the location and/or ticket details, so keep checking in on my website for further details...
Website, FROM THE VAULT and Social Media
WWW.TERAJOHNSON.COM - We've got new merch! We replenished our sell out of LOVE YOUR LIFE magnets and still have our BORN AGAIN MUSICIAN stickers as well as a couple newbies - check 'em out: LIFE IS SIMPLE and HAPPINESS IS...
And as always, social media needs your help! (YOUTUBE.COM, @TeraJTweets and Facebook)
FROM THE VAULT - IT'S A SMALL WORLD was another spooky-cover we decided to throw into the mix that I must say, if there are any film/tv folks out there, pitch away, as this sounds like a Tim Burton song any day!
THE OTHER SIDE - ON A GOOD DAY is a song I wrote when towards the end of the recording of this album I had this happy-go-lucky melody stuck in my head that wound up actually on the album...Enjoy!
Go Fund Tera Johnson
As always, our goal is so close - 80% of the way there! Any way you can help - whether by pre-buying the album for yourself or a friend, sponsoring the project and getting your/your companies name on the website, music videos or in print on the CD insert, or another great suggestion, I'd certainly appreciate it!
