Music can change my mood in an instant!
If you are anything like me, you probably have songs in your iPod that you listen to only when you exercise and those songs are probably different from music that you play when you want to relax or just chill.
I think from the moment we are born we are sensitive to sounds and how those sounds make us feel.
Listening to music can be therapeutic and soothing; truly a stressbuster. I believe that music can truly heal your soul. Or it can get your creatives juices going and help to push you through a project. I think we are definitely hardwired for sound. That’s the only way to explain why when we hear certain songs or even certain sounds, it can instantly bring back memories and transport us to the time and place when we first heard it.
You can’t explain why you connect to a singer’s voice. You just like it the first time you hear it.
That’s the way I feel about Owen Danoff’s voice. I first heard him singing with a group on a clip that a friend sent me. There were a few places in the song where he sang by himself and I didn’t know it was him until I asked. I liked his voice right away.
Owen Danoff is a young Washington, DC singer songwriter, a multi-talented artist who is starting to make a name for himself in the music industry by writing songs and playing gigs in New York City, Boston, Nashville, Los Angeles and of course, DC. He is a graduate of the Berklee College of music and a 2012-2013 artist in residence at the Strathmore Music Center (www.owendanoff.com).
Check out this jammin’ cover of One Direction’s “Loved You First” that Owen recently cut with the also multi-talented singer Mike Squillante. Mike is in the middle playing the guitar and doing vocals and is accompanied by Adrien Godat on bass. You can also find this on YouTube:
