MICHAEL BEHM "It's My Time"

MICHAEL BEHM
“It’s My Time”

With “It’s My Time,” prolific Canadian songsmith Michael Behm has crafted another winner. Rich in melody and possessing lyrics filled with universal resonance, it’s a song that belongs on CHR / Hot AC radio and in the hearts of its listeners.

Behm has earned a rapidly growing international following with his eloquent solo compositions, but “It’s My Time” marks a new foray into co-writing. The song is the shining outcome of a highly creative collaboration with legendary Canadian songwriter Ron Irving.

The track will be features on the 2009 season of American Idol exposing Behm to millions of listener’s worldwide.

“It’s My Time” takes the listener on a voyage of emotional discovery when the singer finds he is now on the “big stage” and as Behm says, “The crowd is going wild!” The track features Behm’s expressive and honest vocals and guitar work. This is complemented by the superb accompaniment of A-list player’s drummer Randall Stoll (Tom Cochrane), bassist Scott Macleod (Platters) Steve Morris (Ian Gillan Band). Recording of the track took place at both Bryan Adam’s Warehouse Studios and Behm’s Vancouver Island studio. The track was mixed by Behm’s long time partner Delwyn Brooks, (INXS, Coverdale / Jimmy Page) with mastering by Brian Gardner at Bernie Grundman, Katy Perry, Linkin Park.

The result is another Behm classic, one that belongs on your AAA play list.

"Modern Day Tragedy" New sonic high water mark!

"Modern Day Tragedy" New sonic high water mark!
As I was into the last hours of a mix that started last Friday I did not know if this track was crap or not. I finished it last night at midnight I was all alone. I thought about all the many people who have made this track what it has become and was grateful.
The song has come a long way from writing it with Ralph Murphy at my dinner table with an acoustic guitar. To tracking the drums with Randal Stoll and my production team at the Warehouse with my long-time friend and partner Delwyn Brooks, an amazing talent! The song took me back to my studio, recording bass and keyboards with John Dryden and Andrew Lorimer. Finally the string arrangement by Christian Howes was done at Berklee.
We removed, edited and revised the arrangement to stay on point. “It’s all about the little girl”
Delwyn returned to mix the track with me for a few two days sessions.
Here I am sending it to you all I have to say is “I can stand behind it and now own it”
