A further march down the road in acl's evolution - and one of the many directions we've been dying to get to... it's, ummm, water-y. (And this song is especially dedicated to J Wentz.)

This is the basic theme for "weekend in new orleans", a documentary we're currently writing the soundtrack for (it'll be adapted with variations throughout the film). It's very quiet. (Video trailer coming shortly.)
I am a man, of means,
I mean I hide behind my strongest teeth.
White Ivories, white ivory.
I tread on hollow ground,
Broken glass, and longer ways down.
Than metaphors, engulfing me
I stare up at night,
Wonder who else might feel such a fright…
So MTC put out [this wonderfully sparse instrumental piece](http://alonetone.com/mtcband/tracks/shadow-of-myself) and a vocal line just jumped out at me. Then some harmonies jumped out as well.
First new one from me in a long time.
Kind of a love song, I guess.
Recorded in my new "studio" (3rd bedroom in the new house). Almost up and running now... shine and don't stop wondering!

New original from me, hot off the old wotsit.
When it was half written yesterday, I was considering binning it as a throwaway exercise - I do that quite often. But I played the songwriting demo to someone else and, er, apparently I should finish…
As I reflected on the 100th anniversary this past year of the ship's sinking, this song brought me back to the piano and this was the rendition that was produced as I thought of that fateful night. Original music by James Horner and lyrics by…
I am slowly coming to the realization that I am sacred.
I trust you do as well.
It was so easy to be bitter
To hate the life I was born into
And I almost lost myself in this fight
Cutting what was so sacred
I could not see beyond…
Once upon a time, a man couldn't think of a song to save his life, and then one night it just came together. I miss the cello though. (all recordings are a work in progress)
BTW ~ our kitty is our manager. Her name is, MzKitty. Goofing off is not an option. Get caught? Out comes those claws...ouch!
And another really fine track!
Collaboration with my sister. Figured I should put it in. Have you ever felt like you were bad news for those that dated you? Well this song is about that feeling. (All songs are a work in progress)
The core of the music is heavily inspired by Joni Mitchell. Its been spinning around for years in my head so hearing this song finally recorded feels good.
This is a bonus track of sorts for the mock EP It takes a village. I had the verse chord chages around for many years but just until last week the song and lyrics came together really quickly. I thought I heard a band arrangement originally but…
Had written this one many years ago. I had it recorded originally in a different key and with different instrumentation but it I just was not happy with it. I deleted the original lyrics for the chorus and added a bridge section and lyrics. I…

Oh, dreamy ACL goodness...Mmmm!
very good one!
You had me at the piano intro. It just got better from there. The first piece of music I listened to today. What a great start to the day.
Another beautiful track! Well groomed and polished to a high gloss finish. Cheers slap...
Hi, good sound track and nicely arranged.
This reminds me of some of the instrumentals that linked tracks on Smashing Pumpkins Melon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. Sounds really good.
Sounds deep. Me like. Exactly what I need at 4am.
I love this sound...it is very ethereal and totally enchanting.
Very sweet and sounded medieval...very nice.
very nice work... repetition works well in this piece.
so nice.
I would tag this track if I could ;) very visually provocative. I'm seeing a boat rolling onto the banks, emerging from the fog.. very calming.
I like it
!!!!!!!!
I love it... can't stop to hear it

Real beauty!!!
I love this piece!
I can listen to this piece endlessly.
