Jeff Parker & Company - You Don’t Need To Be Improved

NASHVILLE, TN (March 3, 2023) - 615 Hideaway Records is proud to announce that debut release from Jeff Parker & Company “You Don’t Need To Be Improved”. On TV, magazines, and social media platforms we’re constantly hearing-especially women-how to make ourselves better. The hidden message is you’re not good enough the way you are. Written by Mike Norris, “You Don’t Need to Be Improved” says that when you really love someone, you love them just as they are-right here, right now. Don’t worry about trying to look younger, being in perfect shape, or becoming the “ideal person” you are striving to be. The person you really are not only good enough, but great!
“I chose this song because I like what it’s saying and I also felt that we could do some good harmonies, I like the cord progression, and the way I felt to structure the song, lends to show off some hot picking! Also, to allow me to sing a lower register on verses then switch to tenor on the chorus.”
- Jeff Parker
