Love is Alive (Gary Wright Cover) | Live From the Firepit | Caryl Mack

Details

Description

I just read an article in the New York Times stating that studies have shown that most of us form our musical identities in adolescence, about the same time we are exploring our social identities. And we can more easily recall and are particularly fond of the music from those teenage years, and I would argue into our 20’s and 30’s too! Music memories are strong and connect us to where we were, what we were doing, how we felt, who we were with, etc.

So where were you when Gary Wright’s “Dreamweaver” album came out? Was it the soundtrack to that time in your life? Was it in on 8-track or cassette tape in your car? Especially on date nights? 🔥❤️❤️🔥 (like it was for someone in my household?) 😎🥰🤣🎶 OR was this before your time??

Veteran Nashville singer/songwriter, Caryl Mack, has found her voice again. After taking a hiatus from the music biz, she is stepping back in with a seasoned perspective and rediscovering the simple JOY of singing and making music, curating a community of music makers and music appreciators.

Caryl recently returned to the recording studio working on a new collection of songs with husband and songwriter, Scott Parker, and their long time friend and writing partner, Ronn Chick. “This time around I wanted the music to have a little retro feel. I wanted it to feel familiar, comfortable. We took our time. We called our musician friends and top session players in Nashville. We pulled in elements from some of my favorite musical influences of the 70’s and 80’s seasoned with all the ingredients from my own personal musical journey.

The first single, “Landed on Love”, is a simple love song. It’s a light hearted look at falling in love. Falling means you gotta land somewhere. And when it’s in the arms of someone you love, it’s a great place to land.“
