“Dwayna Litz Fuzes Genres in ‘My Mind’s on You'”

From UpHere Magazine:

“My Mind’s On You” by Dwayna Litz is a beautiful mix of styles and feelings that came to her in a moment of inspiration before dawn. Written at 4:00 AM on a July morning, the track is a blend of pop music with a touch of soul, sophisticated country music, and jazz, incorporating a hint of rock and roll.

Litz and musician Tim Crouch collaborated to produce the song, which is a notable example of musical artistry. “My Mind’s On You,” which was recorded at Nashville’s Soundstage Studios, features a renowned group of session musicians, including Steve Brewster on drums, Jeff Taylor on piano, and Andrew Carney’s exceptional horn section. The piece is full of life, combining fiddle, mandolin, and horns into a sound that is both new and old at the same time.

Litz looks at the painful realization that love never dies, showing that even if you think you’ve moved on, your heart works on its own schedule. Her voice is warm and genuine, revealing her emotions. It takes inspiration from Dolly Parton’s honesty and Peter Cetera’s melodic refinement.

Billy Decker’s mixing ensures that every part shines, and the horns sound strong, and the fiddle makes you feel dreamy, and the background harmonies by Connye Florence and Michael Mishaw add soulful depth. The song “My Mind’s On You” is about memories, strength, and the beauty of being vulnerable. A confession in the early morning turned into a musical dawn, showing that true inspiration knows no genre. Dwayna Litz embodies her true self, sincere, radiant, and undeniably eternal.

Dwayna Litz Music Review in VoxWave Magazine

 

VoxWave Magazine has reviewed Dwayna’s new single,  “My Mind’s On You” HERE :

Dwayna Litz presents her new song “My Mind’s On You” – a gentle, fresh tune that feels like Dolly Parton meeting Chicago.

Here’s an interesting fact: Dwayna wrote it early one July morning, while it was still dark outside, and later recorded it with drummer Steve Brewster, who used to play with Peter Cetera.

She blended pop, country, jazz, and a touch of rock into the song. It’s about how love comes on its own – never according to plan. About that moment when you think you’ve let go, but your heart still remembers.

Dwayna Litz’s “My Mind’s on You” is now being added to Spotify streaming stations all over the world, so much so that it makes it hard to thank everyone, and has also been featured in the New Fire Magazine from America that calls it “pure and unfiltered emotion.” Here is more from the article:

Dwayna Litz’s new single, “My Mind’s On You,” has a realness that can only come from a moment of surprise inspiration. Litz wrote the whole song last Fourth of July at 4:00 AM. It has the unmistakable closeness of a confession in the early morning, when the world is dark, honest, and waiting for the sun to rise. Litz sang gospel music as a child, and you can hear that depth of feeling in her adult work…The arrangement moves between genres with ease. Fiddle lines brush against warm horn sections, mixing pop, country, jazz, and rock in a way that shows how much Litz likes all kinds of music. 

This song is about love’s mystery, the kind that chooses you even when you think you’ve chosen someone else. The song captures the moment when you realise you haven’t moved on, a realisation that is surprising because your heart is silently expressing its own truth.

Litz looks at that weakness with a softness that feels real and easy to get. The song “My Mind’s On You” by Dwayna Litz makes people think about their turning points in love and how strong and lasting real connection can be. The echoes in “My Mind’s On You” are soft and add depth without taking away from the main story.
