Ferris Wheel
Ferris WheelI collaborated with a local songwriter, Jeff Hunter, as part of the Heartland Song Network's "COVID Collaboration" project. Jeff wrote and produced the instrumentals and I wrote the lyrics and melody and sang the vocals. The COVID Collaboration was conceived as a challenge to Kansas City musicians to continue producing music even with social distancing measures in place.
