The Music of Henry Dee: You On My Mind

Hey friend, glad you got here! Thanks for stopping by my site!

February 2013

Hey Everybody! Here’s an update.

If music moves you, then you’re just like me. That’s why I’m so thrilled to be working out arrangements and backups for my next album. Life has a way of happening sometimes that detours you from the passion but I’ve tried to use that time for research and ideas of how to approach this new recording

Anybody who knows me can tell you that I am obsessed with songs. It’s always fun but also a challenge for me when it comes to choosing material whether it be for a show or a recording. These tunes will be from the 50’s 60’s and 70’s. I love those eras and though I have gone back and forth with newer and older choices, I think the ones that I decided on are the ones that work for me at this time. Some are well known and some that certainly should have been. I have deep affection for all of the songs and I’m dying to get into the studio to do them. Soon.

Sadly, we have lost so many singing heroes just recently - vocalists who inspired me so much and made me appreciate all kinds of music. I remember spending hours listening to my radio flipping the dial all over the place when I was a kid. Especially at night when I should have been getting sleep so that I could go to school awake the next day. But all these great shows would come on late at night and I just had to hear it all! I still love to do this and I always learn something new each time.

What kind of music do you like? I’ve always thought, listen to everything and you’re going to end up liking a whole lot. And when it comes to your interests, walk toward your heart’s desire whatever it may be. We’re all busy but we have to make time for dreams. That’s the best advice I was ever given. I hope all of yours come true.

You know, I am so happy that you dropped by to share some of your time with me. I plan to do some website updating soon but please take the tour and visit again as soon as you can.

I will keep you posted about my next events as they come up. Looking forward to doing a show once the record is out.

In the meantime, be kind to yourself and others. Keep smiling and spread the joy. It’s contagious!!

Much love to all.

Henry
