I was going through old DV tapes from years ago and found this footage from my first showcase, ever\u2026<\/p>\n

It brought back so many memories (some emotional) of my brother Brendan and I writing in the basement (many different basements considering our parents moved so much). It also redefined this time I\u2019m currently in now as an artist, and a woman.. \u201cOh ya.. this is how I got here!\u201d Living in NYC, working on my new album and planning my next tour..<\/p>\n

What a journey it\u2019s been since this showcase..<\/p>\n

We often forget all the little nuance details that lead us down the paths we choose. So many experiences, so much writing, shows, tours, growth.. So many big steel doors that close where floor to ceiling windows open. Let\u2019s not forget the (sometimes uninvited) fearlessness to continue on this unknown, heartbreakingly beautiful road..<\/p>\n

I\u2019m obviously feeling very nostalgic.<\/p>\n

This footage contains original clips of \u201cInconveniences\u201d, \u201cChicago\u201d, and \u201cTaker\u201d.. all songs written by my brother Brendan and I. Songs that started it all and propelled us further than we ever expected at the time.<\/p>\n

I am sharing this as a thank you. Something personal from me to you that I hope you enjoy. What I really hope resonates is the mentality of never, ever giving up. It\u2019s a journey, and you may as well let it rip you open so you have something real to leave in it\u2019s wake.<\/p>\n

[Please forgive the film & sound quality as it was filmed on a camcorder].<\/p>\n

Right now, David Kahne and I are sketching the production on the chosen album songs as well as the sound of this record.. I\u2019m so excited to share these with you, I can\u2019t breath! I\u2019m learning patience. Also, some exciting potential touring possibilities in the new year have come my way\u2026 more to come!<\/p>\n
