Fell From Heaven EP Release
The day an EP or album releases is a strange thing. You’ve spent countless hours scribbling lyrics, writing music, finally settling on a completed song then going through days and days of recording the tracks. You then edit and mix the music and go through the dry but necessary step of actually getting it online and distributed. And that doesn’t count the additional hours Ashlee Powers put into the fantastic album art you see today.
All of that work, creativity and anticipation culminate in today’s release. It feels almost like a cross between a sigh of relief and a belly full of butterfly’s.
Either way Fell From Heaven marks a simpler approach to my music than I’ve taken before. Not that I sacrificed any quality for the sake of simple, but I tried to worry less about force fitting a song into something it’s not and just let it be what it is.
Each track definitely has it’s own unique story going from inspiration to creation and production. I’ll be posting Behind the Music entries for each track over the next couple of weeks.
Take a moment. Enjoy the music. Pick it up on iTunes or my new online store. Then tell a friend. Remember you’re the only publicity I’ve got:)
Enjoy,
Jonathan
