New Jersey Stage 2017: Issue 9 | Page 18

This seems to be a pretty good time for you artistically with plenty of new solo and May Darlings songs. Does creativity come in waves for you? As I said before, I do have bouts of writer’s block. I go through some dry spells and find it dif- ficult to churn out songs. I’ve found that utilizing various meth- ods of creating, (I enjoy sketch- ing & painting when I can find the time), can dislodge a hid- den gem that’s been stuck in the back of my brain somewhere. Another thing that motivates me is collaborating. I just started working with a wonderful pro- ducer Steve Greenwell. We’ve been working together on some of my newest material. He’s in- credibly talented and accom- plished, and he also happens to be very kind hearted and down- to-earth. His vast knowledge and warmth have inspired me and I’ve written several new songs since starting pre-production for this new solo record. I’m so grateful and excited to share Get more attention for your shows add your shows to the event calendar at NewJerseyStage.com Listings are always FREE!
