Currently I’m working on a cover of the song “Father and Daughter” as a gift to a friend who’s daughter is getting married. If all goes well, they will have the recording to play during their dance at the wedding.
I changed the tempo and key as well as the arrangement. It has evolved into a very different presentation than Paul Simon’s. While his is very upbeat/up-tempo, this production is absolutely ballad and very tender.
I’ve been enjoying the creation of this cover. The best part has been the inclusion of my own daughter, Samantha, who contributed incredibly beautiful vocals.
Despite this being intended as a gift for my friend who will dance at the wedding with his daughter, it will certainly be a treasure for me.
By the way, check out Samantha’s new single!
