Its day 3 in Nashville!  I wanted to write  a quick blog about how day 2 went.  IT WAS AWESOME!  I recorded 5 new songs!  The first song of the day was called 'Shut Up and Kiss Me' and it is a very upbeat, fun, pop song.  Next was a very sweet love song called 'Letting You In'.  The last song of the morning is called 'Superhero' and I a really excited about this one.  It has such a cool feel to it and it totally belongs in a show like Heroes or in one of the upcoming superhero movies.  How cool would that be!

Lunch Time!  We wanted to try some of the local Nashville fare, so Adam suggested Nashville's famous spicy chicken.  I am a wuss so I went with the medium (which was really hot!) but Adam and Joe went with 'HOT HOT'.  They were trying to act tough but I could see the tears in their eyes as they were eating.

After lunch I recorded the new version of 'Taking the Keys'.  It is still pretty much the same song with some changes that make it even better than before.  It's hard to say, but I think we saved the best for last.  We finished with a song called 'I Need You' and the only way to describe it is that it KICKS ASS!!!  It is the heaviest song on the album and it ROCKS SO HARD!  I can't wait for you to hear them all.

The hard stuff is over and today is just background vocals and harmonies (which is one of my favorite things to sing) so I am really excited.  I will blog again tomorrow.  Thanks for checking in.

Hi Everyone!

I'm in Nashville right now getting ready to start day 2 of recording.  Adam (my producer) and I had a late session last night and we got 2 songs finished.  One is called 'Hurt' and the other is called 'Barely'.  I can't decided which one I love more right now (which I guess is a good thing!)  They are both kind of sad songs but we finished the night by working on a song called 'Taking the Keys', which is more up beat and kind of angry (angry but fun).  You might have even heard this one before on my site, but we have re-written a couple of parts.  I'm heading back over to Adam's studio in about an hour and we will work of some of the more rocking stuff today.  It is so exciting to be getting so close to finishing this album and I can't wait to share it with you all!  I am trying to record some video footage of the sessions so you can see what goes on behind the scenes.  I will post the video on rocktheglock as soon as I get a chance.  I'll blog again tomorrow.  Thanks for checking in!

XO- Gina

WHAT'S GOIN' ON GLOCKSTARS???

Just wanted to thank everyone for continuing to come to the site and write on my guestbook!  i love hearing what you all have to say and what you're up to!

There's been some exciting things going on since my last blog.  The new band has been rehearsing our tails off for our FIRST SHOW on Saturday, October 17th at Joe's on Weed Street.  We go on right after the Indiana vs. Illinois football game, so approximately 9pm, and we're on for about an hour and a half.  This show is especially important to me because of the venue.  Joe's on Weed is pretty much the second home to Then Again (my husband's band).  I feel like I've gained a lot of confidence on that stage and I can't wait to show it off with my own band!  I hope everyone can make it....tell a friend or 5 so we can get the snowball effect going on!!  

We'll be playing songs that you love to sing along to, songs that you haven't heard in a long time, AND songs that you've never heard.  That's right, for the first time, i'll be singing my own music!

So come on out on the 17th and have a great time with me and my band!!!
