I had the honor of co-writing “Blue Kiss” with Columbia Recording Artist/Songwriter Larry Lynum. Our original versions didn’t quite have the magic that I knew lay dormant in this song. So I recently re-wrote it and made it more up-tempo and danceable.
I wanted the new version to live on the edge of the Americana and Alt Rock genres, so I recorded bass guitar and kick drum tracks that really bump. I also came up with a synth part that fit the new rewrite perfectly. If the bass guitar/kick drum is the bottom of Blue Kiss, then the synth part is the glue that holds the song together. Blue Kiss delivers a lyric that speaks to the listener with power, passion and hope. It reminds us that “even a Blue Kiss can turn true.”
