Spectacular in what has become your signature
vocal and mix. Americana channels should be
all over this.
We've watched a couple of specials this week
re the 10th anniversary of the storm. Unbelievable
destruction tearing buildings down and people
apart. The resiliency of the human spirit is
always amazing.
Great production Mr Gruve. We loved it and
are always happy to add another one of yours
to the SC play list.
This is top notch in every way!

Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos

Great song, strong production, awesome vocal.
It's interesting that you mentioned you'd auditioned the tenor sax instead of the slide. I'd always associated the trumpet with New Orleans. Thank you David, and you're right about the trumpet.
Hello,
I really like this song.
great mixing of sounds, very soft and enjoyable.
Great voice too.
Hello.
Sergio.
Thanks for listening Sergio.

J&B I always look forward to hearing from you. Yes, the human spirit is remarkable! ps. I've been studying and working on a new mixing style referencing what Lucinda is doing. I've been listening to her latest CD as you've suggested, and am trying to emulate that sound. It's a work in progress.

Hi,
Having lived through Hurricane Camille the year before I went to Viet Nam and living here in south Florida, these type of songs have a special meaning for me.
I rode out a hurricane in my sail boat at sea, alone. Not a big one, but winds of around 100 miles an hour. Fifteen to eighteen foot seas on the quarter, so not really all that bad. Enough to make it hard to sleep...lol...young and bullet proof at that time in my life...
If your lucky you die, if you are unlucky everyone around you dies and you have to go on with life wondering why you made it out alive. The stuff of nightmares.
Thanks for the song.
Billy
“Amazing! I’ll be working with Jaco Pastorius, Charlie Parker, Art Tatum, and Buddy Rich, and you’re telling me it’s not that great of a gig?
“Well…” Saint Peter, hesitated, “God’s got this girlfriend who thinks she can sing…”

Excellent write.
As I listened to the song I thought "A Vessel In A Storm" would be a good song for Darius Rucker. The feel and phrasing is similiar to some of the songs he has sung.
Very good production.

Billy You reminded me of that scene in Forrest Gump with Lt Dan in the hurricane. It's funny that you actually rode out a hurricane in a boat because that is kind of the imagery I was going for with the "vessel on a vessel" bit I remember growing up and hearing stories about Camille and Betsy. Thanks for listening Excellent write.

I finally know what a multiband compressor is really for lol! And I watched a simple but "ear" opening video about the wonders of LCR panning.

OMG, this song is a masterpiece...
At the other side of the earch, I cannot say I feel what you felt, but in the song, I do feel something.
Again the vocal is so touching, do you ever consider writing a series of songs of K? 10 years, 15 years, 20 years, though it must be very tough to look back but, can you really blame a musician for looking back?
