About Me |
|
| I got serious about my music when I enrolled at John Ford School in San Francisco. There I worked on both performing and writing until I got a band gig and began collaborating with John Ford himself. At his insistence, I joined NorCalSongwritersAssoc (now WCS) and began working with LA and Nashville publishers. (Thanks John!!) This led to lasting deals with film/TV publishers. Placements include TV shows The Isaac Mizrahi Show, Malcolm in the Middle, UPN's 7 Days, Guiding Light, Young and the Restless, Meet My Folks, Touched By an Angel, CMT Insider, Married Away, and films Duty Dating, White River Kid, Danny Glover's Just A Dream, etc. My kids liked it when MTV put one of my songs in an episode of Made. After several writing trips to Nashville, I made the move and now happily abide by the local rule- co-writing. This year I was brought in on a collaboration with Eden's Ridge author Myra McLarey and hit songwriter Gene Nelson on a song written just for Willie Nelson to sing in the movie version of the book. Two other songs of mine are also featured in the film, with lyrics included in the most recent printing of Eden's Ridge.One more thing- check out the kid named Coyote in my top 12. That's my nephew Kyle, and we're awfully proud of him. Update, 4/2-KYLE IS HOME from Iraq!!!!!!!!!!!!

Music:Member Since: 6/10/2006Band Members: Ben Folds on keys, Paul Shenton on bass, Keith Richards OF COURSE on lead guitar, Bogios on drums, Carver playing whatever she wants to play, Susan Ashton singing back-up and Donna Breen, Val and Antoinette on the dance floor. Heaven. Influences: I was lucky to have grown up in a house filled with lots of different styles of music. My parents listened to everything, took my sister Tanya and I to concerts, and paid for lessons. (Tanya always practiced, I faked my way through.) Thanks Mom and Dad! I never really understood how to pinpoint what/who influenced you, so here's what I love-Neil Young, Neil Young, and Neil Young. Wait- and the Beatles, Velvet Underground, Go-Gos(happy beer tunes), Generation X, Split Enz, Ben Folds, Norton Sound, Rolling Stones, the Cure, Barbara Mandrell, Alabama, Squeeze, Chuck Prophet, General Public, Mare Winningham, Garth, Elvis, Shara Johnson, the Clash, Lisa Carver, Early Elton, Toto, the amazing voices of Susan Ashton, Amanda Wilkinson, Heath Wright and Colin Raye, the Stones, TRANSIT!, Bocephus, Oingo Boingo, anything written by Carole King, Difford & Tilbrook,Jeffrey Steele or Roxie Dean, on the Motown label, or sporting a big horn section. I also enjoy a good round of Name That Sitcom Theme Song. Don't play me for money, I'm pretty good.......Special thanks to teachers like Sharon Kendall, Arnold Berge, Susan Brown Hughes, Jack Rubke, Jim Norman, Marsha Roby, Bobby Norton, John Ford, and Ellen Britton.

| So I got to see Kyle. Kyle is my brother's oldest son. He's been in Iraq since January, and finally got to come home for 2 weeks. Kyle's sisters Tiffany and Lori threw a fantastic party for him. B... Posted by Alicia King on Tue, 12 Jun 2007 09:12:00 PST |
