Oh yeah, a lovely song and perfectly performed. Nothing overdone, no smoke and mirrors just a lovely vocal and accompanied plaintively. Nice lyrics too. BTW, I love that expression "swung for the fences"
Well... I have a feeling that many of us may wish for a 2020 do-over. So here's a simple song to make that wish for us all!
Oh Mulligan
I wake up every morning
My jaw is clenched so tight
Even in my dreams it’s a battle
Who’s wrong and…

Do you ever have an idea / song that you just need to get out of you and recorded, even though it's so rough that you'll want to re-do it over and over again? This is one of those for me....

Okay.... your inner hillbilly has clearly been dying to get out!!! The fiddleheads are almost ripe for picking and Mama’s reappearing in my dreams!! Best Lyrics ever! What kind of moonshine are you brewing down on Labradoodle lane these days?
I love Wilsun's 2020 RPM album "Departure", so I decided to cover it (yes, the whole album), but with a twist. I found some bits to be repetitive, so I removed them. I wrote down the lyrics and chords, and promptly ignored the originals, making…
Well the virus has my friend and music partner in Krakow Poland sheltering in place but we are using the time to write and record..here is our latest...we tried to write in the style of Motown...check it out ... all music and production by Art…
Ok... This made me so happy to hear new music from you!!!! Love the style. Made me want to get up and do my "shelter in place dance!" Your voice sounds great. Fun lyrics too!!! Thanks for the awesome pick-me-up!!!!
One more listen from me here in snowy MN. And still love your voice as always. Thanks so much for all the feedback you've given me on my songs! So appreciated!!!!
Another groovy tack from the Proods. Chad the Bad is the name of a terrible monster movie we shot back in ourMass Art days. It's been kicking around for too many years, so we're finally putting it out there, hoping you enjoy it more than my fellow…
I hope I don't meet Chad the Bad in a dark alley anytime, even though he sounds like a pal in the end... Love that guitar jam! So fun to hear new music from the wonderful Proods! Hope you all are well.

Cause I C haven’t got G too much to C say
I C remember the sweetheart that F I left C behind

We wait, we count days, hours, minutes to the expected. With desire, with anxiety, with apprehension, with calm. Do we live during the count, in the intervals between events that we're waiting for, one after another? Probably, something unconscious…
Reading a book
From a tabula rasa, with the title that appeared at birth, and until the end I am reading the book. A book of life, with color and black and white pictures, with joyful or banal or miserable text, with unfinished verses and some…
We have that same Grumman! We keep having to put pine tar on the rivets as it’s a leaker after 50 years in Northern MN. I agree! It’s the kind of thing that shorter people do! Awesome song 💚
Wrote this for Matt & Aaron who own Rhombus Guys Pizza in Fargo, Grand Forks and Mentor MN where I have performed a few times. Hoped they would put it on their website, but they didn't. It's tough being a songwriter!
