I wanted to share an update on the studio recording of my song Will I Be Bored in Heaven.
My original producer had to step down unexpectedly, which caused some delays. But in the end, it worked out for the best, I found a new producer who’s not only a better fit but also closer to home. Now, I’m back on track and thrilled with the progress we’re making!
After tons of research, recommendations from trusted colleagues, and deep dives into his work, I knew Colin McCaffrey was the right choice. He’s not only an incredible producer but also a talented singer-songwriter. You can check out his bio here.
Even with just a few emails and one phone call, we’ve already made amazing progress. Colin came up with a killer bassline that completely transformed the song. He captured its fun, lighthearted energy and gave it a groove that feels like something you'd hear on a tropical vacation. The moment I heard it, I thought, OMG!! That’s exactly the vibe I was looking for!
Next up, I’ll be recording my vocals this week—Feb 11th at 11 AM! (Angel numbers! ✨) The VIP release (for my amazing supporters who helped fund this project) is set for March 15, and the public release will be on May 16.
On the promo side, I’ve applied for a grant to help with marketing and teamed up with an awesome PR team recommended by a trusted colleague who are not only super talented but also down-to-earth and affordable.
The cover art is officially done! It was created by a very gifted artist friend of mine from the UK, and I’m toying with the idea of making some t-shirts with the design. Let me know if that’s something you’d be into!
If you’d still like to hop aboard my scrappy indie ship and help bring this song to life, it’s not too late! As a thank-you, supporters will receive the song on March 16th—two months before the general public—and get their name in the credits. You can contribute via PayPal here: paypal.com/paypalme/melissadlove. Every little bit helps, and I’m so grateful for your support.
Thank you for believing in what I do!
💜 All the best,
Melissa D
