New Single Release from Christine VanHoy
Today, June 9, 2020 marks the release date of my new single "What Gives Me the Right." A song for these crazy times, and all the time. My hope is that it helps us to think about how we think about others and other's situations.
I want to thank my co-writer Rob Matson, not only for the co-write, but also for doing the mixing and mastering of many tracks coming in from different places (all the vocals were done in my bedroom closet). And a big thank you to Smith Curry in Nashville and his band of merry musicians for all the amazing instrumental tracks. So much great music to choose from. To my Whiskey Pass bandmates, Jim Goodkind and Steven Gregory for all their helpful musical thoughts and ideas that helped round out the song. And a special thank you to my amazing granddaughter Lyric, who did background vocals for me, a first for her, and she was great. And to my husband Bob, who was with me every step of the way on this, and had such great insights for the song, I love you, and I love that we do this together.
It takes a village to make a song come to life, and in this case a virtual village due to sheltering in place. Thank goodness for digital.
All the best to all of you. I hope you are all safe and healthy.
Musically yours,
Christine
