O'Saucedo

This week is a special upload to me. My 7 year old nephew and I get to hang out on a weekly basis before his guitar lessons. It is an opportunity for me to show him the "cool" side of music. I think musical lessons can sometimes be a bit stale (however, his teacher is actually pretty awesome), and actually deter kids from wanting to play instruments as it can feel like work. Our weekly meet up is an hour get together and we just play music. The last month has entailed having some fun with Logic X. Its been a really awesome tool to get him learning proper timing and singing/playing in key. He has that opportunity to listen back to what has just been created, and he gets that immediate audio feedback if it sounds right or not.
A few weeks back he had the idea of writing a song about "how awesome it is to be half Irish and half Mexican." He went on to say "we should write a song about how awesome our family is." We created an idea using logic a few weeks ago, but then it fizzled out. With St.Patrick's Day around the corner, I made it a priority for this song to be my WB 11 upload. I wrote some lyrics, created a song structure, and this is what came of it. My father (his grandfather) loved the idea and came up with an awesome last minute second verse that he help me compose.
Without further ado, Here is my nephew's world debut song "O'Saucedo."
P.S. Our band name is The Big Booger.
