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…
This was a write it and record it in one session song challenge that my songwriting friends and I came up with this week. Lions and Lambs was started thinking of spring, but it turned into a song about relationships... as they often do.

You guys are on fire! Each of you has the thing to compliment the other.
Colleen, I was thinking of you over the weekend. Thinking about how far you have come musically since I met you last summer.
These last few songs have stopped me in my tracks. Very impressive!
This is my first upload. I mostly have a vocal here. It's a song that I'd love to get some collaboration on from the guitarists in the community. Let me know what you think?

Bullseye!
An excellent example of the power of collaboration being greater than the sum of it's parts.
I love the simplicity, and that emotional tug.
This one really caught my attention, well done guys!

The song that led the way. I came up with the guitar sound first, and needed a song that evoked the pure energy that was coming from that guitar sound. It needed to be fast and intense. And it needed harmonies. We're full abandon 'cause it's time…

It is easy to mock and ridicule, but much harder to learn and understand. Overcoming our own pig-headedness may be our biggest personal challenge. This song thinks about that. I also was rather happy with how my Telecaster sounds in the rhythm…
OUSTANDING collaboration with the great Gary Fox.
ONE AND ONLY
How many times have you been
Captured by a camera
With no one really knowing who you are
Caught in the sight lines
In the background
In the corner of their eyes
Never…
Girls aren't like guitars.
They won't just sit around waiting for you to come up with something interesting to do
Girls aren't like guitars.
If you're having problems maybe it's because
Girls aren't like guitars

Redone with a new arrangement, new (non-uvula-infected) vocals, and a whole host of tweaks... Now 20% more SPARKLY, and what I'd originally intended before my uvula was infected....
STRING THEORY
A little playful and teasing sigh
A little twinkle in your eye
You’re a Devil, temptress, I am helpless
In front of you
On and off again
I’m your little plaything
Up and down I go
Puppet on a string
You let me go and…
One of my better Psych Folk recordings. Intro voice and keyboards by Starry Nightmoth. BG rhythm/drums generated using a Yamaha E313 KB. Lyrics, music and all other instruments and vocals are my fault.
BEHOLD THE BREAD (Unleavened)
All of…
A new one...
I wrote it on 5th February, and managed to record it in less than a month (a head-cold and lack of hearing in one ear slowed the last lap somewhat).
But seeing as the last one took over 8 months, I think I'm already ahead for…
My first attempt to work with loops I created using midi.
With Mr Sandbags (reichatron). There's a really cool version with guitar added by Mac somewhere too, but it's weirdly vanished! Will add as soon as I find it.

Well that works. Lovely stuff guys.
Dreamy little tune. Very warm vox. I love it. Many thanks. I look forward to more from Dillon - Lennon
What a fabulous collaboration, y'all! Interesting lyrics -- they make one ponder -- and very appropriate music, saturated in melancholy.
Heartfelt and beautiful, the arrangement is lovely and the words resonate.
