NH’s Lynda Nelson ‘Forever in a Song’: New England to Nashville and back!

What a blast making this music was! When Lynda Nelson of Concord  NH came to my studio to start working on recordings of her songs, it became immediately apparent that putting her music in the hands of the legendary ‘Nashville Cats’ would be the way to go.  I knew Lynda’s exuberant positivity would bring out the best in Music City’s finest, who in turn would treat her material with their characteristic sensitive, undivided attention.  We worked on pre-production, recording demos ahead of time in my cozy Portsmouth space, then headed to Nashville for two rounds of recording in January and May.  Two sessions spaced apart was my idea-there’s an incredible amount to be learned from sessions with experienced recording aces (ask Lynda!), and it made sense to leave half of the material to tackle with an enlightened perspective.  We did final vocals up here, and I had a chance to re-visit my acoustic guitar parts (producing a session from the acoustic guitar booth in a studio directing 5 or 6 musicians and an engineer-not to mention  dealing with a Diva-just kidding, Lynda! :)- does not necessarily lead to my best performance as a player!).  A perfect marriage of my facility here in NH and the best of Nashville’s resources.  Give this charming song a listen:
