It was March 2016 and I was set up on a co-write with a musician who was visiting from the UK: Ben Earle (of The Shires). We'd never met but we wrote this summertime song that I've always loved. It's easy. It's breezy. And I could have never written this alone, so it's all the more special to me.
Ben is an all around talented musician and songwriter. His vocal tone is tops. If you haven't heard his duo The Shires, here's a link: https://youtu.be/JDXpb-Y2PjM
Originally Ben thought this was a song The Shires might record and release. It didn't ultimately work for them but sometimes I think I might want to release it myself. Ya never know!
Hope it gives you all the Summertime Feelings!
