My current favorite theme song is pretty low profile — “Life Unexpected’s” title music is “Beautiful Tree” by Rain Perry. As soon as I heard it, I had to have it on my iPod. Its earthy singer/songwriter vibe fits perfectly with the quirky, comfy feeling of the show.

You know that thing that always happens in movies about astronauts…those few minutes of radio silence where you don’t know if the craft has made it safely back into the Earth’s atmosphere, and it’s really nerve-wracking?

That’s kind of how I feel as I rely on all the systems I’ve deployed to get my new album squared away.

Songs finished? Check.
Recorded, mixed and mastered by Mark Hallman? Check.
Graphic Design by Brian Turner? Check.
All music and art files to Groove House, the manufacturer? Check.
Shore Fire (the PR team) working away on the album release? Check.
Radio promotion on schedule? Check.
New website finished by Cory Ann at Dandyline Designs? Check.
Concert booking completed for Fall and Spring? Uh…working on it!
Asked fans to spread the word about the album?  Well, would you mind?

And now…I wait. I’ve picked the best people I could afford, and they are expertly doing their jobs. So now…the mission will be successful or it won’t, and there’s nothing else I can do.

Ehhhhh….the waiting….they say it’s the hardest part.
