You guys are on fire! Each of you has the thing to compliment the other.
Colleen, I was thinking of you over the weekend. Thinking about how far you have come musically since I met you last summer.
These last few songs have stopped me in my tracks. Very impressive!
This is my first upload. I mostly have a vocal here. It's a song that I'd love to get some collaboration on from the guitarists in the community. Let me know what you think?
