11. The Storm You Never Saw Coming

Greetings everyone... We wrote this song "Searching Out Answers" about how it seems life keeps changing at a super speed as we get older. Its as if the changes are relentless, like they never sleep. This is coupled with the "new" generation, as they begin to pick new leaders who reflect the current needs of the people. 
We took our time with this song as we worked to develop and to improve our singing and harmonies. We wanted this song to sound something like "Enigma" a great new wave band. 
Kudo's to Tiffany as she worked out the lyrics and the melodies. All music presented and played are by Exit4Luv to include sound management and mastering.

Searching Out Answers (Exit4Luv Original)

We are very excited to introduce our latest Exit4Luv Originals song, "If You Please." This was a labor of love for both Gary and I. The basic premise of the song was around Garys military service. Gary enlisted in the Navy when he was 17 years old. He spent the next six years doing two extended tours in Vietnam and was preparing for a third tour when the Military started to back down. Gary was assigned to a ship that supported the brown water Navy and all of their "River Patrol Boats" in the now infamous "Mekong Delta." This focused the ship to patrol and to operate extensively along a very hot and active demarkation line between North and South Vietnam.
Long story short, my husband is now fully retired and is 100% disabled. He is beginning to notice that he feels like he and his generation of "veterans" are being ignored by the military and life as they knew it was beginning to fade into the sunset. This song, along with it's gentle sarcastic statement of "if you please", tells the tale of what veterans feel at the beginning of their transistions from active men, to men appraching their golden "twilight years" of their lives. The fact that these men are beginning to feel less relevant and now even more irrelevance, is a telling and sad fact of life for our brave veterans regardless if you were on the front line or in a support role. As a wife of a disabled "incountry vietnam veteran" it has opened my eyes to the many challenges that these veterans will now have to navigate in order to be heard clearly. Which in part is what this song is all about. 
Gary and I play and sing all instruments. Gary is a multi faceted musician in that he can play lead guitar, bass guitar, and drums. I play keyboard and am the lead singer. Gary and I do all of our own multitrack recording, mixdown and mastering in our newly completed inhouse studio. We are very blessed and thank our lord daily.
We hope you enjoy our lastest song "If You Please." You can follow us on Facebook, instagram, YouTube and all other streaming platforms.
Be safe out there.

If You Please

Hello everyone, we would like to present one our favorite songs "Twilight's Reckoning". I truly enjoyed singing this song as I became more comfortable adding my flare to it. I also enjoyed singing the harmony part in order to make the harmonies as tight as possible. 
It was a real challenge to do this song justice. My husband Gary did a marvelous job helping to come up with the chords and arrangement along with the lyrics. I wanted to make this song my own and to put my signature touch to it, so I did. I remember practicing this song repeatedly  with some passion and determination to energize the song. I appreciate Gary playing all of the guitars, bass, and drums with commitment and passion as well. He puts his best effort to mix down and master this song and what a great job he has done. So we are proud of this song and we hope you enjoy. 

Twilight's Reckoning

I love it when a "thought" comes to life. We were watching the news the other night around this Mask issue, when we turned to each other and said, "time to write a song". Here is a bluesy funk styled song "Masks", Exit4Luv Original, lightly having fun with all the choices put before us.
On a musical note, the more we play, the more we stay curious, and the more confidence we get. This is both cathartic and inspiring. Tiff and I are unique, because we have the time to dedicate ourselves to our music as well as the time to dedicate without interuptions. We push ourselves to get better each and every song. I will challenge Tiff on her keyboard and she will always challenge me to sing. We feel we are turning a corner especially in our musical development. Tiff is our lead vocalist and keyboards player. I am multi-instrumentalist playing Lead, Rhythm, and Bass Guitars as well as all Drums on our tracks. I am a "wanna" be singer thankfull for any and all chance to sing our "own" Songs. All vocals and instruments are played by Exit4Luv. All words and lyrics by Exit4Luv and are all copywrite protected. You can follow Exit4Luv on all major streaming platforms.
Until next time please be safe in all that you do....

Hello everyone we are pleased to announce our newest song "Shattered Truths". This song was quick to come up with, a driving beat, and it has an interesting chord progression to sing to. We hope you enjoy. 

Shattered Truths

Hey all....

(Entry December 2023.)
Time really flies. It's been roughly nine years now since I wrote that original bio. We are now into our thirteenth year of marriage and a whole bunch of songs. What a journey it has been. 
One day while driving back from Houston, Tiffany and I were talking about our music, which we both played together on and sometimes collaborated on original songs, when we decided to give our music some legitimacy, and decided to give our music project a "band name".  
After what appeared to be a long extended moment of silence, we realized just how hard it was to find a name for our band. For miles and miles we tossed one name out after another, yet nothing stuck or sounded legitimate. Finally after what appeared to be hours and noticing our gas tank was getting low, we decided to get off the freeway to get gas and hopefully a bite to eat. We then decided to find an "exit ramp", and all of a sudden a lightbulb went off in my head. 
We are very much in love with each other and usually out of nowhere and at any time, one of us would look at the other and just say, "I love you". Well it just so happened that as I was looking for the nearest exit off ramp to fill up our car, Tiff looked at me and told me she "loved me". It was at that moment when I saw the exit ramp coming up, she told me that she "loved me" and I said wow this is an "Exit4luv" off ramp, so I looked at her and smiled. What if we called our band just that? So there is a little insight into how we named our musical project, Exit4luv. True story. It happened on interstate 10 just outside of New Orleans. 

(Original Entry 2015.)
As you can plainly see and it's not too hard to notice, Tiff and I are kind of a unique looking couple. We stand out in a crowd in many different ways. It has not been easy on the two of us by any stretch of the imagination, however, don't ever doubt our love for one another. The bond forged between us runs deep and true. However, the actual secret to our love and understanding of each other is really kind of simple. Tiffany who is younger, is really old beyond her young years, she is kind of like the proverbial "old soul".  Where I, the actual "old person" on the other hand, has never grown up.  I say this "tongue and cheek" of course. 
Actually at first, she thought I had the maturity of a 15 year old. She was actually being generous, just kidding... 
I think right now I act and feel like I'm still in my early twenty's. To our way of thinking, age is truly just a number. 
So you see, this is where we are as a happily married couple. Sounds intriguing and funny, in a cute kind of way, yet it is so very true.
To play my guitar, my drums, and teach myself the bass guitar all the while trying to learn how to record music was my retirement dream. Life was just too damn busy to do both, provide for my family and play my music. 
For some reason that only God knows why, after working for what appeared to be a lifetime and felt like an eternity, I find myself living that dream. 
I raised a family, earned my Doctorate, retired from management, became an entrepreneur and taught college as an adjunct professor of "applied mathematics".
And fortunately for me, after what appeared to be a pure chance encounter, I met Tiffany in 2010.  Unbeknownst to her, she understood my passion and zeal for music and encouraged me to focus and prioritize my life, and to stay true to that dream. It is so cool that I can say "dear friend", because after a couple of years,Tiffany became my wife. We became friends first which was important to both of us.
I am retired, and a two tour Vietnam combat service disabled Vet. I have lived a great life. I am blessed beyond my wildest dreams. 
The rest is just Blah, blah blah...
