Oh ..... this makes me proud. You guys are great party animals.
Listen to this; ukulele, slide guitar, organ, great vocals. It’s like we used to do in college when we filled the bathtub with all the booze.
Well it's been a long while (as seems to be the pattern lately) and I was inspired by Greg and Ron's new songs.... Then I saw a lovely note from the Proods saying "I must have been writing during this crazy time" - so I had to respond with something…

Yup just keeping to our selves and getting a real handle on our spring to do list. Very tired of my cooking and looking forward to all of us being well.
You made short work of another excellent tune, my joy to know you

I wrote this song while out hiking some awesome trails in Zion National Park... gave me some excellent inspiration. I also tried some different stuff with the mixing and using my keyboard... so trying to push a few of my envelopes...

MN Homebrew Radio show has a monthly writing contest. This month it was to use the word "wait" or "waiting" in your song. So the hook line of the chorus popped into my head at 5:30 in the morning and the rest of the song came pretty quickly…

Here's a song that battled me for quite awhile... so I am glad to say I've gotten it recorded. Still rough from my home studio, but trying out a few additional things on my keyboard to round out the sound around the ukulele. Thanks for listening…
Cool track, Colleen. I like the space you left in it, and I really like the way you recorded this so that I could really just soak in the lyrics and melody.
This song was inspired for all of us who've cycled through a relationship or two.... My dear friends Greg Connor and Mark Lofgren of the infamous MN Coffee Table helped bring it to life with Greg on Banjo and Mark on Lead Guitar. Both of them…

Okay.... your inner hillbilly has clearly been dying to get out!!! The fiddleheads are almost ripe for picking and Mama’s reappearing in my dreams!! Best Lyrics ever! What kind of moonshine are you brewing down on Labradoodle lane these days?
I love Wilsun's 2020 RPM album "Departure", so I decided to cover it (yes, the whole album), but with a twist. I found some bits to be repetitive, so I removed them. I wrote down the lyrics and chords, and promptly ignored the originals, making…
Well the virus has my friend and music partner in Krakow Poland sheltering in place but we are using the time to write and record..here is our latest...we tried to write in the style of Motown...check it out ... all music and production by Art…
Ok... This made me so happy to hear new music from you!!!! Love the style. Made me want to get up and do my "shelter in place dance!" Your voice sounds great. Fun lyrics too!!! Thanks for the awesome pick-me-up!!!!
One more listen from me here in snowy MN. And still love your voice as always. Thanks so much for all the feedback you've given me on my songs! So appreciated!!!!
Another groovy tack from the Proods. Chad the Bad is the name of a terrible monster movie we shot back in ourMass Art days. It's been kicking around for too many years, so we're finally putting it out there, hoping you enjoy it more than my fellow…
I hope I don't meet Chad the Bad in a dark alley anytime, even though he sounds like a pal in the end... Love that guitar jam! So fun to hear new music from the wonderful Proods! Hope you all are well.
C I been riding this trail for F way too C long
I Am picked up G peculiar C ways
F A short conversation G is C all that F I know
Cause I C haven’t got G too much to C say
I C remember the sweetheart that F I left C behind
Or Am maybe…
We wait, we count days, hours, minutes to the expected. With desire, with anxiety, with apprehension, with calm. Do we live during the count, in the intervals between events that we're waiting for, one after another? Probably, something unconscious…
Reading a book
From a tabula rasa, with the title that appeared at birth, and until the end I am reading the book. A book of life, with color and black and white pictures, with joyful or banal or miserable text, with unfinished verses and some…
We have that same Grumman! We keep having to put pine tar on the rivets as it’s a leaker after 50 years in Northern MN. I agree! It’s the kind of thing that shorter people do! Awesome song 💚
Wrote this for Matt & Aaron who own Rhombus Guys Pizza in Fargo, Grand Forks and Mentor MN where I have performed a few times. Hoped they would put it on their website, but they didn't. It's tough being a songwriter!

Oh this is a beauty Colleen
yes that's good. you all just slid into some teary greyhound grind
Great collaboration all!!! Stay healthy and keep making outstanding music
first song I hear from you lovely vocals! The noodling guitars might have been a tad louder in the mix, but I love the vibe here enjoyed it! KC
Fantastic twist on the song, absolutely love it.
Oh ..... this makes me proud. You guys are great party animals. Listen to this; ukulele, slide guitar, organ, great vocals. It’s like we used to do in college when we filled the bathtub with all the booze.
Let’s try
So beautiful in its simplicity, the best songs often need nothing more than a voice and accompaniment. Great song, Colleen!
Yep :)
Such fun listening to you Colleen!! Take care and stay safe, sending love you way!!
SO GREAT!

Beautiful and a great reminder to keep things in perspective. Let's keep on writing!
You've GOTTA be working on something.
Old school. Love it.
I love this, of course, And thank you for giving Chad a listen...looking forward to what's coming next.
Cool track, Colleen. I like the space you left in it, and I really like the way you recorded this so that I could really just soak in the lyrics and melody.
Great number, there is nothing like a live recording of people who can play and sing well together.
Great tune, Colleen! I really like the earthy feel. Real blues tones here, and I love it.

Oh I love this one! Perfect for a big ‘ol singalong!
Some really amazing songwriting here. Such compelling lyrics, and I love how the vocals build. An instant favorite for me. Thanks for sharing!
Lovely chorus - such a great combo of the lyrics and the melody.
OMG! What great story telling... Now I know this never happened to you :-) :-) :-) Beautiful!!!
Magnificent! I could have this on repeat all day long.
Like watching nature’s beauty unfold during an autumn sunrise. This is amazing.

Especially the part about the snacks!
Okay this is really awesome!!
Well they missed out Carl! This one is a keeper. Fun to see you here on Alonetone!
Hey there! This one is a real keeper. Love the imagery of your lyrics and your banjo / harmonica just gives it a sultry sound. Love it!!!!
Oh my..... your vocals are so amazing. and the rest of the song... just ethereal and leaving me wanting more. Well done all!!!!!!! A total favorite!
Really nice song. Love your vocals and how they build at the end
