In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Music has been at my core of my soul throughout this lifetime. I'm so grateful for the universal language that it is, and for the many beautiful connections it has created in my life. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Michael Kelsey, The Most Perfect Place The Corrs, Forgiven, Not Forgotten The Manhattan Transfer, The Manhattan Transfer Anthology - Down In Birdland Songwriting inspiration comes from many people, places and events. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Mourning Dove” Mourning Dove, lived in several other iterations of lyrics and melody before it became the song it is today. The version I recorded for the album is quite different from the first set of lyrics and melody. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? After adding silence to my morning routine for about 5 months, opened the flood gates of song ideas and melodies. I headed to the studio to record what I thought was going to be four songs. It quickly became my debut solo album with 11 tracks. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I plan to record more music, and anticipate new music collaborations. I'm also having fun in the Kelsey Greeson Project mastermind with Scott Greeson, Michael Kelsey and Courtney Von Drehle. We have a goal to tour with American Music Abroad.
