or A.K.A. the Caribou Lake song...
I wrote this one for my Dad, who while up at our family cabin in the north woods of MN said there's not enough music about the woods...
My first "one take wonder" - just me and my little Uke - roughing…
I had a wish to sing along with Greg, so he offered me a piece of his Cherry Pie to sing along with... I added a few other bits here and there as well. Thanks Greg!!! This was a fun one for me... added some piano and a teeny bit of percussion....
Nothing beats when the MN songwriters convene. Greg and Colin sure brought some awesome sound to this song at the coffee table to improve the version that I recorded myself earlier this month. It's what I call a TOTAL MAKEOVER.
Thanks guys…
This one is still a bit rough, but I wanted to share and see if anyone has an interest in adding some guitars, bass, other vocal parts for fun. I left the chords in the lyrics below, in case you wanted to collaborate. I hope you enjoy it…
This one is dedicated to my dear friend John. Thanks for changing my life for the better....
Also a big thanks to our own Greg Connor who helped me get the chords for my own uke accompaniment, and who kindly played the beautiful guitars…

I'm sick of those wise guys that lead us ....
Wise Guys
I tell you I want something I need it right now
Something to take me whey up above the clouds
I want to get high I want to learn how to fly
So I can get away from all these wise guys…

Cover art by Dan Upton.
and on this fateful day i'll be
forced apart away from you
my destination i can't see
and i don't know where…
Part 1 of a travelling trilogy. Played on electric guitar in Dropped D Tuning. On the Wetband site here at Alonetone I overdubbed some slide guitar and bass: https://alonetone.com/wetband/playlists/traveling-trilogy/traveling-on-by-woody-b…
Trying out a new strat: not letting myself work on details on the computer until the skeleton of the song is complete. Result is a lot of variety in songwriting, but a bit rougher arrangement/mix.

I'm trying my hand at creating instrumentals for Sync Licensing. This track is actually one file containing 3 pieces of music: Orion's Belt 1, 2 & 3.
You can find my instrumentals on Pond5. Here is the address:

Thought I'd share something from my latest project: Putting together instrumentals of public domain songs to use as intermission music for a community theater production. We got dinged for streaming copyrighted music in our previous production…

Excellent track really like this
After we talked about this song on the phone, I had to take another listen. *YUP* . . . and *YUP* on both topics !!!!!!!!!
I hope this one makes it on your new album! This is a great song . . . but I think you should fire your harmonizers.
Another masterpiece! Lots of fun playing music around your coffee table.
I can't get over how well you all record live another outstanding tune Colleen...really like the harmonies and your lyrics!!! great job to all
I stopped by for a little listen / Primer . . . getting ready for Thursday night!
Like a warm hug. Very nice music from Minnesota.
Very nice!
Wow! This just opened up. So cool! Love that bass and backing vox. It's really bouncy and flowing. Awesome!
This song puts me right on a beach. Great theme and imagery...and is that a 6-string? Nothing better for a tropical song than a seagul:)
Beautifl - heartfelt! Wonderful campfire atmoshere.
Great collab excellent

Your voice sounds glorious on this one! Great lyrics too.
How did I miss this one? Sweet love indeed. Glad you dug this one up!!
Your voice is awesome! Love the visual story of this song.
Such a lovely and sad tune. Well done
Is really chill, but with such a happy energy too. I love it!
“Get out of bed…. I need the sheets for the table”…. Classic lyrics. Oh my…. Poor Simone
I dig this one!!!! Great vibe! Hope north of Thunder Bay brought good things to you!!
This is gorgeous!
I love this - not rough at all. The lyrics are really compelling. Love the bridge….
I agree with Ron! The last one makes me want to dance. Love them!
Gorgeous!!
Really peaceful… thanks for sharing this
They surely are indeed…. Gritty and brutal. Like so many love stories. This one needs to be a sound track to a true crime series
Sounds awesome Tilden! A great choice to have playing during intermission. Very nice rendition.
Very cool story telling…. I forgot we had done this one!! Fun to hear all our voices unexpectedly. Hope you are well!!
Delightfully dreamy!
