Turning Around, the WHD Dance music


 Turning Around (4:10, MP3 on Soundcloud)

Turning Around is an original song written especially for the WHD Dance 2012. Huge thanks to my talented and patient musician friends who put this together over the course of several months after I mentioned the idea on a whim to Huw during a ukulele lesson. We composed it on the ukulele and wow did it evolve!

Via meetings and dinners and late-night recording sessions in my bedroom, six of us brought it to life. We all had our fingers in the pie; mostly these were our roles:

Composer: Huw Lloyd
Lyricist: Jesse Koester
Vocalist: Esther Thirimu (Swinky)
Arranger: Rob Moreno
Producer: Kristen McQuillin
Executive Producer: Tod McQuillin

The lyrics are on the Music for WHD Dance page, in case you want to sing along.
