My dad wrote and will be performing a song at a wedding this summer and he asked that I do backing harmony vocals. He sent me the CD, which I’ve been listening to in the car on my way to work, creating my part in a mobile isolation booth.

I know that this virtual collaboration between artists is nothing new, but I can’t help but marvel at the ease and convenience of it. There was something so sweet about being able to sing along with my dad even though he is miles away. We may only have one or two live rehearsals before the actual event, but using this form of communication relieves the stress of the unknown and keeps us connected.
