Hi gang,

I don't think I've posted here before, but some of you may be familiar with some of the songs I've co-written with Robert George. Here's our latest, as sung by one of my very favorite singers, Mike Willis:

Thanks for the listen!

Cam,

Great song. The vocal is superb and has a really nice feel to it. Nice production too. Nice post.

Tracy

Nice mix and production.

Cool lyrics and vocal/harmony performance.

Yeah - that is really good on all counts.

I agree a well crafted song on every levels, good job by all,

Tony.

Thanks everyone! I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. I saw the singer, Mike Willis, perform at Tin Pan South last week, and he's stage presence is just as great as his singing.

Thanks again!

Cam

Well, I loved everything about this one. It's a wonderful production and Mike Willis has the perfect vocal quality for this lyric. I loved the dobro in this....just a great production.

Good luck with the pitching and please say hello to Robert for me, as well.

Hi Cam,

Welcome to JFP! For some reason reverbnation isn't working for me, I have no idea why, it used to work fine. Is there any other place I can hear it?

Dottie

Very good demo and it sounds mighty nice to me.

The only thing I am not sure about is the pause between "Calico" and "Sundown". Maybe the current way is better, though -- hard to say.

Kevin

Cam: Excellent. Well sung and well produced. I especially liked the change-ups in the chorus, where the rhyme scheme stayed the same, but the lyrics changed. That's really good writing.
Ott

This is really great in any way!!

Can someone please paste the link directly to the song, I'd love to hear it but the only way I can play songs on reverbnation is with a direct link.:)

Thanks!

Dottie

It's the third song down.

Thanks for the listen!!

Hey Cam,

Thank you! This link is working for me, it sounds great! I have heard a lot of your songs so I expected it to be very good and wasn't disappointed. George is a great writer and you two have written a lot of songs that I love. I've listened to songs that you wrote alone too, or I think you did, there was no co-writer listed. I especially love Roadside Rest but you have many good ones.

Take care; I’ll be looking out for your work!

Dottie

Thank you Dottie! Most of what I've written in the last 18 months has been written with Robert George. Taxi doesn't give you enough space for writer credits, but if the lyrics sucked it was one I wrote alone, haha!

Thanks again for taking a listen!

Cam

Excellent song, on all fronts! Loved it!

Thank you Carol. My music to this one was influenced by some of the old Emmy Lou Harris songs like "In My Dreams" (written by Rodney Crowell, I believe) with perhaps a little Alison Krauss thrown in there.

Cam,

You are being too humble, I haven't seen any that suck! You are very talented.

Dottie

CAM--

GOOD TO THE LAST NOTE--YOU HAVE A REALLY GREAT SONG HERE--LISTENED TO OTHERS--YOU'VE GOT SOME GOOD ONE'S ON YOUR SITE--ONE OF THESE DAYS! YES SIR!

SIGNED UP AS A FAN--

Mackie

Hi Cam!

Love it! What more can I say.

Hugs Michele

Thank you Dottie, Mackie and Michele. It's music to my ears (excuse the pun) to hear that you like it!

Now if I can just get the folks in Nashville to agree with you!

Cam

Nice to meet you Cameron and I enjoyed the song. I can see why you're partial to your vocalist, he's great. I must tell you I jumped around your list of 39 songs and must've played half a dozen or more and I hear a pattern of some really good material to be proud of. Especially enjoyed "When Tomorrow Still Believed" and "I Know" (that one didn't have the lyrics for some reason) and "Learning As I Go". WOW!!! Every demo is top notch w/production and vocals, etc. Do you use the same demo studio?? Nice list of very solid, very commercial great country music. Thanks for sharing. Great work from you and your co-write Robert!!!

Best,
Lynn
P.S. If that's your picture on the site did anyone tell you that you look alittle like Al Pacino in that photo???

Lynn, I've come the conclusion that you have very good taste in music! Seriously, thank you for the kind words.

All my demos have been recorded at Nashville Demo Studio. Great, talented people, and a lot of fun as well. I was one of their first customers in 2008. They were my secret weapon for awhile, but now everyone is coming to know about them so that their demos sound as good as mine. Tell Jimi and Rod I sent ya.

Thanks so much for taking the time to listen and comment!!

Cam

Cam,

I like this song all around, everything is great..and I like the way robert writes, he's a great writer..


and hey you're avitar looks like my x husband....just kidding


glyn

I've been married a few times Glynda, so could be. Your name doesn't ring a bell though, lol.

Thanks for the feedback. Rob's an amazing lyricist, and really inspires me to raise my own game.

Cam

Great song and lyric, a pleasure to listen to!!

Tammy

Cam,
Great songwriting, recording, and production. Vocals are really good and this sounds very pro to me. Really like the lyrics and the song and I am not much of a country fan so I think that says something...
Good job!
Ricky

Thank you very much for the feedback Tammy and Ricky.

This was recorded at Nashville Demo Studio, as are all my demos. I highly recommend them. The singer is Mike Willis, one of Nashville's rising stars.
