Time To Tell: Songs About Your Personal & Family History
Six songs inspire, motivate and entertain walking through simple steps of saving one’s story: - Grandma’s Quilt urges one to take care of the family love through remembering the stories pieced into a quilt. - Yesterday’s Trash touts the power of our treasured mementos to bring back memories. - Been There Before uses three cultural vignettes to show that there is a reason why one should respect the elders. - Memory Lane shows that family history can be put to use; stories teach responses that work, traditions that give insight. - Time To Tell shares the catharsis a senior has as she prepares to downsize and let out the skeleton in her closet, finally sharing her story. “Like all of these songs, this is inspired by a real person. Mabel was kidnapped as a child and never returned to her family. She became an elected leader and radio personality. But only now, since she has a terminal disease, does she feel a strong need to share that private story. For Mabel, and the many others who fear their stories may go untold, now is the time to tell.” - Heart Bridge, the final song, was written by Deborah with her mother, Carole Spotts, on a mother-daughter weekend in Scottsdale, Arizona. It urges loved ones to connect, to meet half-way. Nashville musicians Ethan Ballinger [Missy Raines, Lee Ann Womack], Dave Roe [Johnny Cash], Ross Holmes [Mumford & Sons, Chessboxer], William Ellis [Montgomery Gentry], Tim Lorsch (Walt Wilkins), producer Femke Weidema [Cotton Wine, The House] and others contribute to the soft country sound that provides a setting for the sentiment and Deborah’s warm vocals.
