24 Hour Song Challenge

I accepted the challenge and wrote a song in 24 hours!

Today is the day I write & finish a brand new song in 24 hours for the #XPNsongchallenge, a songwriting challenge put out by my favorite Philly local radio station 88.5 WXPN. One prompt, one song. I have not written an original song in a long long time, and this is great motivation. I’ll be posting a video of the song at the end of the day, so stay tuned.

I got my pencil, and 5 cups of coffee in me – ready to go.

Wish me luck and good metaphor!

Thanks to the motivation of the song challenge to write and upload a brand new original tune in one day, 14 hours later I have music & lyrics that I’m pretty proud of, and my first new song in a long long while. And honestly, I’m feeling pretty accomplished to have attempted and done it, and to have flexed my songwriting chops again. I don’t usually write a song from start to finish in one day!

Inspired by the challenge theme: Summertime, the recent loss of my father, the anxiety of “Back To School Season”, and just generally wanting to spend every day in the pool, please enjoy my new song “Don’t Tell Me Summer Is Over”
