ok, so here's the scenario. a good friend of mine works with a guy who is in a band who was just signed to a production deal by dallas austin. she said she talked to her friend and gave him an old demo cd of mine and he said I should send in an updated demo with 3 or 4 songs - each from different genres - something to show my range and ability to do different styles. OMG. I'm so excited, but not getting any of my hopes up since I know that they may be blowing smoke, but it's fun to think and dream. now, I have to come up with songs to sing - suggestions?

Pick songs with your heart.

That's cool, Jason. Have you ever posted your songs before? Did I miss them? Can I hear your voice so I can offer up some good suggestions?

Congratulations, that's pretty exciting!

Of course I'd suggest you include some Stevie, but that's just me...

I posted my songs from the Gold Dust Project in, I believe, August. I'll try to do something tonight that you can listen to.

I didn't know that you were an artist. Good luck with everything!

well, I am deep in my heart. I've auditioned for American Idol (puke) 3 times and Making the Band (double puke) once. Never really worked, but then again, I'm glad. The people at Making the Band we really nice and liked me, but "weren't looking for a Justin Timberlake" kind of guy.
