As you probably already know, my boyfriend Tyrell, one of the writers on Homorazzi.com, is also a dancer. He’s a cheerleader on the CW’s Hellcats and you may have also seen him in a couple recent music videos (Elise Estrada “You’re So Hollywood“, These Kids Wear Crowns “Jumpstart“, etc.). What you probably don’t know is that he can sing and in his spare time he’s been writing some songs as well. I know right, what spare time? He started getting back into it by playing around with GarageBand on my computer. Before I knew it he had written a handful of songs and was really getting into it. I’ve been thoroughly impressed with how quickly he’s been able to come up with lyrics and turn them into songs.
Recently, working with some of the pros at RSA Academy, Tyrell got to spend some time in the studio working on one of his tracks, “Letting Go“. It’s an upbeat track with really catchy lyrics and today he’s taking the plunge in letting people listen to a little teaser of it for the first time. Unless you’ve played American Idol with us at Donovan & Brian‘s place, this will be the first time many of you have even heard him sing. He put together a 1:00 teaser of the song, which I had been joking this weekend that I was going to leak early. In all seriousness, Tyrell thinks of this as a fun side project that he’s had a lot of fun working on. He sang in musical theatre and just wanted to try singing in a different medium, since he had some spare time and the resources to do so. Hope you enjoy it!
He’s working on a few other songs at the moment and planning on making a video for “Letting Go” as well.
