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...

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…

Gritty and gorgeous! Love the song, but the interplay between you and the others is just off the scale fun and authentic. Love the genuine warmth you guys share - and wonderful synergy!

We ran all the way to the door

This song has been the biggest mess of the month. It was the second idea I had, the first that wasn't dropped. I have fought with it more than any other song I've ever recorded. The drum parts have been recorded twice. They rhythm guitars have…
BROKEN BOTTLES
Broken bottles on the shore
You're molded to the bathroom floor
Just like you were the day before
All throughout the year and more
No excuse, you're such a mess
You break your word, you're honor-less
A heartless soul…
Hi Rob!
Thanks for your kind note. I would love to collaborate on another tune. If you have some blues vibes you can help me with, I'd appreciate your thoughts on how to make Baby in a Grown-up's Body come to life. It's posted here a few tracks ago on my page. Glad to know you got internet back. Hopefully the worst of the storms are behind us!
Have a great day,
Colleen
CHECK IT OUT!! It's the very elusive and thought to be the stuff of fabled musician's lore, A "completed" song by the guy that I AM!

Hi Robby! This was so much fun to work on with you. I really love it upon hearing it again. Thanks for the opportunity to collaborate and I hope we can do it again!!
I am learning a bit more each day about how to write/compose for guitar ,, quite fun. This RPM piece is dedicated for our 16 and 1/2 year old mini red Dachshund,, Howie.. though blind and mostly deaf, and recovering from illness, he still…
This is the first time I have played in drop D
this is a Springsteen song that he borrowed the title from a Pete Seeger song..and I like the way Warren Haynes plays it live...so here is my humble attempt at it...
Hope you enjoy the trip. The bass line kept my fingers busy on this more aggressive Psychedelic Folk tune. The poem is actually three crammed into one, all about the same dream.
LAST NIGHT
With a subtle touch
I have said enough
But you…
This song is the concluding song on my RPM Challenge February album. It is a good-bye to the project.

Not a good-bye to Alonetone

SEE YA
It has been a lot of fun

I woke up this morning and looked out the window at all of the snow. The endless landscape of blank, frozen emptiness, and I just felt sick. I wanted nothing more than to go back to bed and sleep until May. So what did I do to combat this depression…

So beautiful in its simplicity, the best songs often need nothing more than a voice and accompaniment. Great song, Colleen!
