This week’s
grin is fantastic new Canadian artist MacKenzie Porter. Actually she’s not
really new. Although only 23 she’s already a very successful actress, an accomplished
classically trained violinist and she’s coming off her debut single “I Wish I’d
Known”.
Longtime
collaborator and artist Carolyn Dawn Johnson introduced me to Mac a few weeks
ago and the three of us wrote a really cool song that her team decided would
make a great 2nd single. The icing on the cake was this week having
the privilege of co-producing the record with CDJ. We tracked at Benchmark sound
(old emerald) studio with the freakishly talented Ilya Toshinsky and a host of
the most in demand session players in the country. The track turned out incredible and Mac has done some phenomenal vocals. We’ll all spend another week
or so on the song before mix and master and then to radio station/Video channel
near you.
It’s always
special when you’re involved in creating a song that is compelling enough for
an artist to release as a single; getting to actually help make the record
constitutes treasure indeed.
Happy
Hunting!
