Next Chapter also represents a new freedom I have learned very recently. I don’t have to just ‘fit the bill’ persay, I can make songs the way I hear them in my mind and not have to be restrained to having a ‘jazz’ or ‘smooth’ sound. I can make these songs exactly the way I want, and not hold back. It’s like that final level of a game you’ve been trying to beat for what seems like forever. So I guess, think of this song as also the ‘video game’ backing track to my life, haha. Keep moving, and keep leveling up! :-) For more information on this and the upcoming album, 'Inside My Mind,' please visit http://www.teamskelton.com.
