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.

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.
This is a song by our guitarist Keith. He doesn't get a chance to jam with us as much since he moved to New York. He and I had a lot of fun working on this simple tune, and it makes me miss times long gone.
The 1916 Rebellion was a sad time in Irish history. The public outcry after the execution of the leaders of the rebellion led to the War of Independence resulting in the creation of the Irish Free state in 1922. While Independence was achieved…
Deserts of the Higher Plane
Searches end, I had to admit
Mirages were never towns
Till I finally quit with my damages aloft
Holding what I can’t, what I can’t allow
Desserts of the Higher Plane roll along
Desserts of the higher plane…
Really great song .Feel of soul,feel of heart that is not yours.Music is something I feel very passionate about, my experience in various areas of the industry has fed this passion.
Back around the turn of the century a group of miscreants would converge in a basement on Tuesday evenings to imbibe spirits and play music. Here's a recording of a public-domain song from one of those evenings (written by Kansas Joe McCoy &…

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall....
Humpty Dumpty's Warning Song (A preachy cautionary tale)
Pieces of the heavens lost
Shattered like ice on the ground
Desperate men struggled on
To put back all they had found
I sat upon a great stone…

I was so excited when SlKrell wrote to ask if I would do the vocals on this excellent song he wrote! I loved his lyrics and the rocking backing guitars. Hope you enjoy it too!

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.......
