This is a remastered version of DJam, uploaded previously, with Darrin Kobetich on mandolin. Look him up on myspace, he's an incredible guitarist! I am playing a National Estralita resonator tuned to double drop-D.

This song was recorded for the independent film documentary, "It/ll be better tomorrow, the life of Hubert Selby Jr.". Sadly, it did not make the final cut, but it will always be a favortite of mine.

Everybody hates waiting. Some more than others.

Here is my practice run, 1/12 of the 24hour album. 2 minutes of music in two hours. This track was fun to make. I started with the acoustic guitar, added the bass, then the beat. To get a particular sound that I had in mind, I did a little beat…

Written and produced by Michelangelo. I just added some slide reso. Mick's dad played harp.

This is the first cover song I've ever really recorded in my 15 years of playing and recording. The guitar and voice are each full continuous takes, I didn't want to do comping (copy and pasting), though the vocal harmony parts were done in…

Inspired by a gorgeous recording on a wax cylinder by the composer, Tanburi Cemil Bey (1873-1916). Performed on politiki lyra (classic kemençe), a small bowed fiddle from Istanbul. Recorded at The Banff Centre, November 2008.

A seemingly nice man; a pretty young girl. The country forgotten, the people cold and without love. The protagonist is lost in his own thoughts. He sees the girl and falls in love; but she barely knows he exists. He begins to hallucinate about her.

In a hypomanic state, the schizophrenic has thoughts racing through his head; dogmatically he begins to think that everything has been set up by the universe for a reason.

Mr X realises that he'll never be happy. He wants to be free from her "curse" and considers suicide. Then he sees her outside - she enters his house "unwelcomed" (in fact, he's taken her inside by force). He has a better idea.
