Introducing part two of my acoustic project, a batch of ten new acoustic versions of songs taken from the more recent phase of my career. Tunes like “Any Better Than That,” “Gettin’ it Gone,” and a couple of covers, including Tom Petty’s “Walls” and Wilco’s “Box Full of Letters” all get the acoustic treatment.

So whether you come into my music through the front door, with my Nashville country pop albums, or the side door, with these acoustic renditions, it doesn’t matter. I’m just glad you’re here!

I’ve really enjoyed laying down acoustic versions of my songs. You just never know how they’ll turn out until you try. I’m always surprised, in a good way!

I’ve also been playing out more lately and I like performing these acoustic songs. The audiences seem to like them too. Enjoy!

Eight years ago, on my very first trip to Nashville, I had coffee with someone in radio. She asked me what my streaming goals were, and I told her I hoped to one day reach 100,000 streams on my songs. She said that was a very manageable goal — and honestly, I didn’t believe her.

Fast forward to today — my music is being listened to every second of every day, all around the world — and I just hit 5,000,000 streams.

I’m so proud of the songs I’ve made, and I have so much more music coming very soon.

Thank you for listening, sharing, and supporting me on this journey — you made this possible.
