I wrote the lyrics and melody to this song a week or so ago when I was feeling that unsettling disconnected feeling we all get from time to time when we're missing the people we love.... Then I gave myself the challenge to try a few things with…
Here's the second one we did at the Winterland Studios. You'll hear Greg Connor on guitar and vocals, Colin W. on bass and vocals and Randy C. on piano. This was a blast! I think this is definitely the best version yet of this song.
I uploaded this one earlier in the month with a rough track. Colin W. and Greg Connor helped me improve the arrangement and we recorded it at Winterland Studios this past week with some amazing equipment and awesome sound mixing support from…

This one has the stuff. I purposely left it alone for a few days so I could come back and listen to it "*fresh*".
I think it's going to be the star of the Minnesota Songwriters compilation album.

2008 - A 12 string guitar Acoustic Improv played in the Pelican tuning DEADAD. It has some rough spots but sometimes the best takes are the first ones. final edits made in Ableton 9 and audacity.
Well, soon the new EP will be complete, featuring Jessica (the REAL talent in the family), but as with earlier songs, I thought y'all might like to hear what it sounded like when it first entered the world.
Meet me at The Narrows, ya'll.
Just got my system up again after several hardware upgrade conflicts, and a move to California.
Been thinking about changing this songs ending for a while, finally getting around to it. Good to post here again!
Cheers,
Reef
Been busy revising....but hey!! i passed.....
JUST LIKE THE 70’S
Everybody knows that the 70‘s rocked man
That rock stars where made of gold
Everybody knows everyone was plugged in
the music played with everyones soul
Everyone knows everything…
When I was in college my room mate told me a STORY about a traveler who arrived at the gates of a city in a strange land. Seeing a beggar at the gate he gave him a coin and asked him a question: "What kind of people will I find in your city…
An original song I made up. I used quite a few layers of guitar work, I'm sure you can hear my acoustic 12 string which I love to bits.... Une de mes compos perso. J'ai utilisé plusieurs guitares, je suis sûr que vous pouvez entendre ma guitare…
Another Sunday afternoon project . . . this has been sitting around unfinished for a while and so has my Alonetone account, so I recorded & uploaded this original song. All sounds by me.
1st Verse:
I'm just passing through, doing what…
Caught up in the recent political events, ISIS suicide bombers and pedifiles being protected by clergy . . . all on the evening news.
All guitar parts performed on my hand made Kapke Archtop Guitar made by my friend Damon Kapke.
There…
Feeling in love Grin no better feeling .... Tried drums bass rhythm guitar and even a bit of lead oh ! and not forgetting the organ....but jumped in a bit too early at the start but hey!! i'm trying...Thanks for listening
Something new here. Tilden Barger offered to arrange and produce this song. Tell me what you think.

A Piece of Pi is our newest composition. It’s a brief summary of the story “Life of Pi”. A wonderful story needs a wonderful song. Hopefully we can meet this challenge and find like-minded people out there.
My light-hearted take on a serious issue.
Over- prescription of powerful and addictive drugs, and the unknown and (to some) worrying relationship between doctors and the drug companies.

You always come up with the best melodies and lyrics. I love the simplicity of this. The doubling of voice (W/Reverb) is a nice touch.
Proods love you....never go away!
Awesome. No one writes lyrics like you do Colleen! First class.
Very nice!
Thought I'd commented on this the other day....must be getting old....well written and enjoyed
Great song!
Great chord progression supporting a solid lyrical story. Nice Ukulele. I like the echo on the vocal.
Oh , nice. I sometimes need reassurance
Real thrill!!!!
Wow!!!...this may be my favorite one of your songs Colleen...really nice mix..vocals are right on!!1
Liking the layered vox - lovely harmonies in the middle. Bitter sweetness.
nice mix and the vocals are wonderful .
Wonderful.
really pretty, just great harmony congratulations
Really beautiful, great work.
"C'mon in . . grab a toothpick" . . traditional Country flavored. Lyrically & Vocally strong, plus some nice sounding instrumentation.
Very nice sounding recording, along with strong vocals . . what's NOT to like ?
This one has the stuff. I purposely left it alone for a few days so I could come back and listen to it "*fresh*". I think it's going to be the star of the Minnesota Songwriters compilation album.
This is a real beauty...
Very pro sounding recordings! Hope you're planning a release?
