Thanks for all the love so far for my new song โThe Choir!โ To me this is a โweโ song and not a โmeโ song so I want to use the release as an opportunity to shine a light on some artists that are being like โThe Choirโ and using their voices and platform to call for change through both their art and through acts of advocacy. For the rest of the month Iโll be featuring different artists on my pages via portraits by @sheronica_mars, like the one above of me. Stay tuned! #inthechoir โ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3rDS...

When The Influences asked me to cover a song that has influenced me, โPassionate Kissesโ was the first one to come to mind. This song has been recorded by two of my biggest heroes and influences and I donโt remember ever not knowing this song.
I first heard โPassionate Kissesโ sung by Mary Chapin Carpenter whoโs music was one of the soundtracks of my childhood in Virginia. When I was in high school and rekindling my love for MCC and getting really into songwriting, I realized that this was actually a cover of Lucinda Williams, an artist who I had heard of but never listened to...and then my whole world burst wide open and I was never the same.

One of the songs I chose to cover for my session with The Influences was โMy Favorite Mistakeโ by Sheryl Crow. I got a karaoke machine for Christmas sometime during middle school. There were a bunch of current songs on the CDs that came with it & the one I remember always going back to and singing was this one, all by myself in the living room. I think my early love of this song that explains a lot about me and my writing, actually.
My dad bought โTuesday Night Music Club,โ her first record, because Sheryl was from the same little town that his father was from in Missouri. We listened to it all the time when it came out. I remember checking it out from the library when I was away from home and staying with my grandparents for a month in the summer because I missed listening to it.
Iโm actually playing a Sheryl Crow Signature Gibson in this video...When I first moved to Nashville I did not have a proper guitar for gigs. I saved up money from nannying and found a listing for a dreamy jumbo country western on Craigโs List. I met the dude at Substop (RIP) and checked out the guitar, which ended up being the Sheryl Crow edition. He did not mention that in the listing and I was apprehensive about the nerdiness and quality signature edition guitars but this one sounded incredible and if I was to be a super fan of someone, it might as well be that badass. This guitar has been all over the world with me and I get compliments on it all the time. Good work, Sheryl!
If you made it this far in the post, maybe you love her like I do. Somebody put this woman in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame NOW!

โก๏ธLive right now and just be yourself. It doesnโt matter if itโs good enough for someone else.โก๏ธ
This verse is my favorite one. I wanted to make a slow and soft version of โThe Middleโ because the lyrics are as comforting as any lullaby. I think itโs a lullaby for all ages, really.
