Creative Weekend Songwriting

This has been the week for 10 mile mornings on the treadmill, preparing for my next marathon. I love speed walking and a little jogging from 4.0-6.0 mph. I speed walked my first marathon last year and plan to do it again. I know it does not sound like much to marathon runners, but I have always been a walker instead. I love a challenge and 26 miles again is just that. I feel so good!

I am having a beautiful weekend in more ways than one, working on a new song I am writing for my next recording session in Nashville…

Here I am outside my Sarasota home. Lots of rain is coming tonight, and I love writing on rainy nights. It’s a great weekend to be creative!

New Video on YouTube –“Maybe” at “Dwayna Litz Music”

Please check out my new video on YouTube of my latest music release, “Maybe.” I wrote this song from my heart, and I hope it touches your heart when you hear it. Attached also are photos from Nashville in the studio when we were recording last December.

“Maybe” –My New Music Now Out!

My new music is now out! I wrote or co-wrote all of these songs. Most of these were songs I began years ago or even wrote years ago and am just now recording. “Maybe,” the title cut, was more recent. These range from some I would just describe as fun to beautiful. (I will have my new Christmas song that we recorded out in Dec.). I think the most special one was “I Promise You,” which we all felt together and got on the first take. I wrote that one by myself back in the 90s, the first time I lived in NYC, and I finally got around to recording it. I had a great team of musicians in Nashville to make it so easy, and I look forward to working with them all again.

I thank Tim Crouch, Jeff Taylor, Scott Coney, John Arruci, Jay Weaver, and Monty Allen for such a great session and thank Matthew Perkins for the absolutely beautiful cover design, along with Eli McFadden for the photo. Also, of course, Travis Humbert as recording engineer, and Billy Decker for the perfect mix.

Also, I thank Bruce Bouton, Mark Capps, B. James Lowry and Dennis Crouch, as they were part of the team on the first session.

Listen to snippets of the songs HERE.
