CP006-Hope Floats

Starting off the New Year with a song about hope… how poignant! So, two of my good songwriting buddies Butch and Steve came over to the Carsonator Studios on New Years Day and we were able to help me finish an idea that we had been working on here and there for the last few weeks. I think it came out great and I couldn’t wait to get a polished reference track done on this one before I shared it with you! Be sure to check myspace.com/jasoncarsonmusic for a reference track of it that as soon as it’s ready. Thanks Butch and Steve for letting me be a part of this one. I love you guys. Let’s write more like this one.

You know, in my opinion, the craft of co-writing is the ability to let go of fear of judgment and just talk or play out what you are feeling inside… what you believe… regardless of what your partner may think of you; so that you can let the authentic stuff work it’s way out. That’s the stuff that we are all after as songwriters. Steve and I have conversations like that all the time; the stuff that plants the seeds for our songs. On this weeks show (as I have in past shows) I play one of those conversations. Give it a listen and perhaps it will give you some ideas of your own to put to paper. Open it up and receive!

I also play music from LivinTrust and Rascal Flatts. Two songs that I can identify with and inspire me to write songs like them.

I hope you enjoy the show… Talk to you next week.
