STEELY
has recently returned from NASHVILLE collaborating with her writing partners Shawn Rorie & Deanna Johnston, (a.k.a. COPPER RIVER MUSIC)
They have created a driving, rocking, undeniably original pop sound while maintaining the unique styling & honest lyrics, which led to her initial success & is proving Steely's growth and staying power!
STEELY says:
"These songs are probably the most personal,
tapping into my own experiences, stories & heartaches,
it has been the most "free-ing", "empowering" experience for me to bring these songs to life, especially at this pivotal time in my life!!...
I am grateful to Shawn Rorie, who is the driving force behind all these songs & to Deanna Johnston for her never ending support, inspiration & talent!
Together we melded all the ideas to create what i feel to be the strongest songs, and songs that are by far the truest to me as a songwriter and an artist...
this collaboration has been the most amazing experience,
i have dug deep and really let go....i have shed old skin and am ready to take on the new journey!
I cannot wait to see y'all on the road soon & share in my music, my stories!"
REHEARSALS ARE UNDERWAY WITH AMAZING PLAYERS READY FOR A TOUR! ...details TBA.
