Mel Washington - Stereo (John Legend)

This is my cover of a song by the amazing John Legend.  I do this NO justice.  It’s me + a macbook + garage band.  wanted to do something different, fun, indie, and out there. here it is. enjoy.  listen to the original.  it’s AMAZING!

Also, the song is called “Stereo”….so listen with headphones, dumby! Or a GOOD set of stereo speakers. (laptop speakers don’t count)

Let’s build some houses…

I haven’t been this nervous in years.  But, tonight I arrive in Atlanta, GA and start work tomorrow on my new solo record.  I had the privilege of co-writing this record with my good friend, Chris Perot.  Extremely excited to have my friend, Matt Goldma,n produce this as well.

I’m walking in a bit blind.  A few demos and some other ideas.  I get to create something organic almost from scratch with some really awesome people.

I’ll keep you posted.  

If you’d like to hear one of the demos, go on over to http://melwashington.bandcamp.com/track/alyxs-song-demo

Thanks for your continued support, guys.  I’ll keep you posted as this all comes along.

Alyx’s Song (Houses)

A few months back, a friend of mine and I began co-writing my new solo record.  I was very sure and equally unsure on what I wanted this record to sound like.  

It’s identity is finally coming together.  I’d like to share a song with you, my friends.  This is merely a demo, but it will give you an idea of the general direction of the new record.

Can’t wait to get it recorded and in your hands.

This is why I love my dad.  Here’s a voicemail he sent to me today.  Randomly.  Out of nowhere.  Made my day.
