Well the album is out and included is the song "The Call" written for my brothers and sisters of the Luna Pier Fire Dept in Luna Pier MI. These guys helped me through every aspect of where I am today.
They were there when I was diagnosed with cancer and they were there the day I became a...
I have 2 more almost complete, 2 more I am doing a session on next week and then I send it off to be mastered. The mastering house that is doing the project is the same one that does Black Eyed Peas, Maroon 5, Fuel, Allison Krauss etc.. They should make it sound sonically cushy.. Then I when I...
I'm pretty sure this is a done deal. If you have NR now I'd suggest keeping it because it's very unlikely they will be recognized by other states as meeting requirements. From what I understand Michigans bar will be set pretty low, which will not fair well for those leaving the state post...
Well I had posted a rough version previously but the final pre mastered version is available for FREE on my Reverbnation website.
"The Call" Is a song I wrote for my Fire Dept after the help they gave me while battling cancer. They asked two things of me, "get better", and "write a good song...
Wow thanks guys!
The dispatch at the end was for my old Fire Dept that took care of me while I was very sick when I had my cancer fight, I put it there to honor them.
I'll let everyone know when it's finished.
Glad you liked it.. However I don't understand why this is moved to General Advertising when I'm not selling anything and am just sharing something, thought that was what the lounge was for?.. I have no gain from sharing this music at all, just wanted EMS people to hear something written for...
Well it's a rough version of the song.. It's unmixed and still needs drums and a few other tracks but I had to get it done for my old Fire Dept's banquet.
There are only a few EMS/Fire type songs out there and it's very hard to write one and not make it hokey. I am very proud of this song...
Really don't know why this was put in advertising, I'm not selling anything just sharing. It's all free :P
Speaking of free, new song is up.. "Random Thought's Of A Fool" It's a very hardcore traditional country song and it's just the guitar vocal. Full demo will be coming shortly.
It's...
Song has got me sitting at #162 on the Nashville country charts, right above Toby Keith, Clay Walker and Billy Currington.. I need to keep pushing this and next week I'll be making a pitch to some publishers in town.. Spread the word and help a broke medic out! lol
You can post a link on...
Thanks a ton for the compliments!
I'm hoping to write a song that has something to do with EMS but you'd be surprised how hard that is to do without writing something thats really cheesy.
Well as I continue to enjoy my life post cancer I've been trucking away down here in Nashville. I've been working as a medic for a great county service, working 24 on and 48 off which gives me a ton of time for my music..
Just wrote a song the other day and went into the studio to record it...
First off thank you for the comments, I'm glad I was able to share the story and the song.
Travis go back on my facebook page and start from the beginning of my notes, there is a lot of good reading in there.. Please don't hesitate for a second to ask questions or if you just need to vent or...
Btw I'm no singer, just a songwriter so I know it's not the best vocals ;-) It's mostly just a personal song..
http://www.facebook.com/cyoungparamedic in case anybody would like to know more, I've got lots of notes I wrote during TX..
I've mostly been a lurker here and haven't posted much, though I've done a lot of reading. I'll give the short story..
I had just started my Paramedic class when I got diagnosed with Testicular cancer. My instructor refused to let me drop and pushed me the entire time, I attended class the day...
I'm applying for MCA, part time position. I'm hoping I'll do just fine on the tests, I passed my NR first attempt and had no problems with class etc. I downloaded the Monroe Country Protocols and am studying those just in case there are any county specific questions.
I guess first step is to...
On Monday I have an oral interview and I have a second interview already setup for Wednesday. I was told the second interview involved a
Written test
Physical Agility Test
Oral Board
Interview with the Medical Director
I have no worries about the physical agility test or the oral...
Peace out! see ya.. Look until they start giving us the options to protect ourselves(and others) this is going to happen.. Other than telling my partner "Squirrel in the road" and watching him hit the brakes and swerve, I'm too old to be retard wrestling in the back of a rig. After he jumped...
The big problem with unlocking the iphone to work on something like Tmobile is you can only get edge speeds out of it. The freqs that At&t use are not the same as tmobile so you can't get 3G, which is stunningly fast. It will work, but it will be neutered pretty badly when it comes to speed...
