Notes from the world of latin jazz & Brazilian singer-songwriter Alexa Weber Morales
Just found out that my song "Down in the Everglades" (Jazzmérica) received an honorable mention in the West Coast Songwriters International Song Contest in the jazz category. Wow, thanks! I'll have to look up this guy John Lester, who wrote two winning songs, one in the humor category ("Beware La Merde") and the other in the jazz category ("So Many Reasons").

I sing in four languages, crossing borders with acoustic jazz, boleros, salsa and samba. I'm a songwriter, mother, recovering magazine editor, triathlete and former auto mechanic.
Vagabundeo (Patois Records, 2007; KOCH distribution). Produced by triple Grammy nominee Wayne Wallace. Lush arrangements wander through the jungles of samba (Ave Rara), salsa (El Cantante and Habanera), afro-funk and an a capella ballad (Calling You, feat. Kenny Washington and Bryan Dyer of SoVoSo).
Listen and buy on iTunes, Amazon or CDBaby!

Do you know the lyrics and cords to "down in the everglades"
If this is a real request, of course, I have charts for the song as I wrote it. You can hear part of it at CD Baby. The lyrics are available on my website on the lyrics page.
The lyrics are available on my website on the lyrics page, which is not there but here.
