My First Demo!

A couple of months ago I took a trip to Nashville. I stopped by the office of Paramount Song and today I received my Democratic from them for the song I Can't Have Christmas Without You. It sounds wonderful and I am so excited to finally have a demo that sounds professional and is ready to be presented.

I wrote this song when my brother first joined the Marines. It was our first Christmas without him because he was at boot camp. It inspired me to write a song about spending Christmas without someone you care about and this song was the result.

As I prepare to present this demo, my next step is to determine which songs I would like to make demos for next. I will most likely make them as I can afford them, but I have a list of about five songs that I plan to make priorities. Completing song fragments is going to be on the backburner for a little while. I am ready to focus on moving forward!
