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...

At least 3 of my favorite musicians are hanging in or about Minneapolis, namely, Greg, Mark, and Colleen. Must be all the snow and moose sightings that keep y'all so artistically inspired.
This is my second piece for the RPM challenge... And it's a big milestone for me... the first time I ever played my own instrument along with it! It's rough, but you gotta keep trying and start somewhere, right? Greg Connor... you'll understand…

Colleen, That goodbye song is just the final song on my new album I did for the RPM Challenge...an online thing where people try to do a whole album between the beginning and end of February.

But thank you for listening to my music. I'm not going anywhere.

OK, for the 3rd day in a row, I woke up with your voice singing this song in my head, and I carry it with me all day. If the responses to a songwriting challenge were judged by that standard -- how stuck it gets into one's head, then no contest, this one has possessed me!
Hi! I just posted a remix of this, hopefully that's OK with you? Here it is: http://alonetone.com/mecreos/tracks/change-is-calling-1
I thought is was cool, hopefully you do to.
I’m going down
To the ground
Half a step
Then look around
I make an unsettling sound
Devil in the details
Music is the thing
The flatted fifth
Makes a diabolic ring
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…
A farewell to summer and those long summer evenings. Chords available at https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Ca0DNhDnK0np3tixMA5L7BSMpm58H9Vb/view?usp=drivesdk

Long summer evening

"Hold Me Close" written, recorded, and mixed (very quickly) in three hours on September 13, 2022.
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:

This is very cool. I dig it.
Love the guitar and mandolin jam and vocal ensemble! NIce!
Some great beats here that go well with your lovely vocals.

This one is a Classic! I think you need to bring it to the next SongWriters Circle.
Nice, good job on adding a few more elements to the mix. They keyboard is cool! Bongos make EVERYTHING better.......

Oh, I hear Penelope in there! Or is it? Now I'm not sure. Very Pretty

It actually reminds me of some of what I experienced when I got to visit the Serengeti! Cool music, lyrics, and vocals.

Thanks so much Gene!!! Everything I listen to it again it just cracks me up. Such a fun contest!!

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!!
