about

Welcome one and all to #TuneUpThursdays, where this month, I'm getting off my procrastinatic ass and complete unfinished Tune-Up Thursdays projects.

This week's piece is an arrangement that I meant to cover in week 4, but it was in this projects' infancy, and I hadn't yet discovered how to change tempos in the click track. So I had figured it would be too hard trying to figure out tempo changes without a click track, and gave up after trying for a night.

4.5 years later, I've drastically improved my recording technique and style, and am very proud to bring you today's song!

Please enjoy my cover of "The Lion Sleeps Tonight", originally performed by Solomon Linda, and this version arranged by Ron Smail.

And as always, if you like what you hear, please share with your friends and family.

Side note: I love to collaborate!!! If you'd like to record a Tune-Up Thursdays track with me, just drop me a line at Aerhyn.Lau@gmail.com and we'll work on something together to record!

If you have an acapella arrangement of a song you've been working on, please share it with me and i'll do a recording of it!

Song requests or ideas for my monthly themes? Message me on Facebook or e-mail me at Aerhyn.Lau@gmail.com with all your suggestions!

I'll try my best to keep uploading #WindBackWednesday tracks, but keep up with me next week to see if I end up going with my original plan for September songs!!!
