about

Welcome to another quarantined week of #TuneUpThursdays, and I realized while choosing a song for this week that I actually do have a theme this month.

Since it's my birthday month, the theme will be songs I've been wanting to record for ages, and haven't gotten around to it until now. Here's the thing: I literally have thousands upon thousands copies of digital sheet music. And sometimes, pieces that I found a few years ago while saying to myself, "Ooooh, I like that song! I'll put it in the folder, and I'll get to it someday", but it'll end up getting lost in the shuffle, or I've forgotten that I actually have that song.

Anyhow, this week's song is a doozy. I discovered it listening to the first John Mayer album I bought after seeing his show with Anders a bunch of years ago. The lyrics are hard hitting emotionally, and it's got a great melody. And then shortly afterwards, I heard the version that Home Free released of that song, and I *knew* I had to sing it for Tune-Up Thursdays someday. No better time than now.

Oh...and another thing; It seems that with all this extra time with the quarantine, and the self-isolation, and the social distancing, yada yada yada...I've got enough extra time to not only launch my weekly track, but I was also able to make a new YouTube video on my chanel. You can watch the accompanying video on YouTube.

Please enjoy my cover of Home Free's arrangement of John Mayer's "In The Blood".

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!
