Dwayna Litz captures timeless love echos in new single, "My Mind's On You"

“My Mind’s On You” by Dwayna Litz is a catchy, style-shifting tune that blends contemporary and traditional sounds, crossing boundaries between country, pop, jazz, and rock. The single is loosely described as Dolly Parton meets Chicago, and with it combines quintessential emotional warmth, sincerity, and musical artistry to deliver a heartwarming meditation on love that’s as triumphant in its message as it is surprising upon first listen.

A production team that includes recording engineer Mark Niemiec and mix engineer Billy Decker keeps everything precisely in place. The cover art for the single, designed by Matthew Perkins and photographed by Eli McFadden, aligns with a cohesive creative vision. Jeff Taylor’s piano is an eloquent match for Litz’s voice, and the background harmonies of Connye Florence and Michael Mishaw swell with the emotional weight of the song.

Produced by Dwayna and the multi-faceted Tim Crouch, it is accompanied by a star-studded chronicle of the finest musicians. James Mitchell’s electric guitar and Duncan Mullins’ bass create a deep undertow. At the same time, Andrew Carney’s trumpet and flugelhorn add a bright brass shimmer, significantly elevating the level of sophistication across the track. Crouch’s fiddle, mandolin, and guitar lend the song a folk feel, and Steve Brewster’s brilliant drumming provides rhythmic accuracy and momentum.

“My Mind’s On You” delves into that bittersweet epiphany that, while we’ve convinced ourselves otherwise, someone new is still lingering in our thoughts. It’s a musical confession, stunningly honest and universal. Litz offers a story arc in melody, an emotional odyssey that truly feels like forever. Emotional and artful, “My Mind’s On You” is the reality that love never leaves quietly.
