Preparing for Stacey Blood pre-production

Stacey Blood and David Norris are teaming up once again for what will probably be the final pre-production sessions of his much anticipated album release. With four songs already in the can, and several new ones to iron out, Stacey’s vision will finally come to a head this next week as the two join forces to select the tracks and finish working out all of the fine details before taking it to the major studio. Be prepared for an eclectic ride through the hourglass of Rock & Roll ! ! ! 

“as cool as it is, the only problem with taking our sweet time to make sure the album is exactly right is that we end up with three albums worth of material, and it’s so damn hard to pick and choose when all the songs are written with this theme in mind…I feel like I’m putting some of my children on time out for no reason…haha” explains Stacey.

Stacey and David will be woodshedding for over a week this time around to solidify the remaining tracks on the album. Production will start in mid April and will be released to the public in late spring or the beginning of summer. This untitled album will be Stacey Blood’s second commercial release following his album Reversed Space which can be purchased at:

David Norris, Craig Boyd, & Eddie Heinzelman take the silver

David Norris and teammates Craig Boyd & Eddie Heinzelman won 2nd place in the Andy Griggs Songwriting Competition this Saturday for their southern rocker “Crawl”.

This contest designed by tunesmith.net was held at Hollywood Disco in downtown Nashville. Each team was given an assignment to write the next radio single for Andy’s upcoming album, and were given two days to complete a song and perform it for a panel of judges on the third day of the event. Judges included Andy Griggs, Jimmy Van Zant, Sharron Dennis (Dennis Entertainment) as well as other entertainment industry professionals.

Being in 2nd place will put our song “Crawl” as consideration for the album as well as open doors for other avenues in pitching the many songs we all write.

I’d like to personally thank Nan Cassidy for putting this competition together and giving everybody a chance to live their dreams at being the next successful songwriter in Music City.
