My Arrangement of the classic for a short film by Helen Hardinger. I loved doing this recording. It was simple and I was able to do all the parts the way I heard them. 

01 Over The Rainbow (feat. Abby Just 1

These two original songs where written for the movie "Over the Rainbow" a short film by Helen Hardinger. It was my first attempt at writing/recording songs of a specific length according to someone elses theme and content - emotions, genera style. It was a difficult topic to deal with at first - Bullying/Teen suicide. My stepbrother committed suicide in 2005. I didn't know him that well but I saw the horrible pain it caused my dad. This helped me understand it a bit more. I'm really pleased with how these two pieces came out. Michael Mann - Michael Mann Studio - did most of the back up arrangements and playing. He was great. I learned a lot. 
It has made me realize that I can write for other people. I feel like I really can be a professional songwriter. I really love doing this work. I hope you will enjoy it as much. xo We can stop the bullying. DOTS on!! :)
