Beeton performer seeks career in music production
She is a talented performer who gave a terrific show at the Sunday Music in the Park concert at Keogh Park in Tottenham on Sunday, July 20. Beeton resident TJ Price writes and performs her own music as well as cover tunes, She was the opening act at the Sunday concert and performed a 30-minute acoustic set for an appreciative audience. While she enjoys performing, TJ is leaning toward a career in music production. 'I took a little bit of a break this year, but I've been performing from a young age,' TJ explained. 'I'm concentrating on songwriting and production.' TJ is currently going into her third year at Western University studying music. 'I'm going to Western for popular music, so I'm studying songwriting and music,' TJ said, 'I love it, you get to connect with a lot of people. It's fun to perform with everyone in different styles. I'm putting together my own songs as well as other people's. I'm mixing and mastering them myself. Hopefully at the end of the summer I'm going to put something out with my own work. I have my own studio at home. A couple of mics and an interface is all I need.' Recording her own music is a fun experience for TJ, however, she is really drawn to the production side of the industry. She has already sent some of her music to music producers. 'I sent a couple of my songs to different companies with help from my professors. You have to have the whole song written and recorded,' TJ explained. 'I'd love to move to Nashville one day and be a ghost writer for people. I would love to do that – it's my dream. I focused more on production in high school. I still love performing and singing, but there's so many things you can do in production.' TJ has future plans to visit Nashville and take part in a songwriter's retreat. Error!

Pete Davidson Expecting First Child with Girlfriend Elsie Hewitt: 'Now Everyone Knows'
Pete Davidson Expecting First Child with Girlfriend Elsie Hewitt: 'Now Everyone Knows' originally appeared on Parade. Pete Davidson is preparing for fatherhood. The comedian and actor is expecting his first child with his girlfriend, model and actress Elsie Hewitt. A source confirmed the pregnancy to People, noting that the couple is expecting their baby this winter. Hewitt later shared the news on Instagram alongside a series of photos that included an ultrasound photo: 'Welp now everyone knows we had sex,' she captioned the post. Davidson, 31, and Hewitt, 29, were first linked in March after being spotted together in Palm Beach, Fla. A source told People in May that they were dating and reportedly moved in together, splitting their time between Davidson's home in upstate New York and a brownstone in Brooklyn. Since then, the couple has been increasingly public about their relationship. They made their red carpet debut in April at the 13th Annual Blossom Ball in New York City, and Hewitt has since posted several photos of the two enjoying summer together — including a Fourth of July lake trip and cozy moments on a boat. Davidson has previously been open about wanting to become a father. 'My favorite thing ever, which I'm yet to achieve, is I wanna have a kid,' he said in a 2022 interview on Kevin Hart's talk show Hart to Heart. 'It's super corny, but it would be so fun to dress up a little dude. I'm so excited for that chapter so that's kind of what I'm just preparing for now.' Congrats to the happy couple!
