Things are great, but then the doubt explodes into technicolor fear. Stoicism can't defeat reality, or is it awareness? And still the antagonist is there. Hard to know.... Another TV-time riff (I hardly watch it, but when I do, I always have a…
You gotta have another rocker, because ROCK! And it's all about perspective, and recognizing that sometimes the biggest antagonist in our lives is ourselves.
This all ends, some days are good, some days you are no further than where you first began, or worse. Have faith. The song started life from the verse gtr. It was actually a variation of an idea from 2014. That idea went on to become the song…
Be strong, nothing that is good is easy. Even when everyone seems to be telling you to give up, be true to yourself. This song came to me in a dream. In that dream, I was singing a country song. You have to realize, I am, uh, not really a fan…
Trying, but now I know what a mess I am, and it seems so daunting and unobtainable. I'm not sure I can do this. It sounds NOTHING like I originally thought it might, but I am ok with that.

This song is meant to be the intro, set the stage, and talk about the direction of the album. The riff came to me while I was absent-mindedly noodling on my gtr in front of the idiot box one day. I knew at that point I had an album opener of a…
Ok, before I go any further, I need to thank Alonetoner Greg Connor. He proposed a song-writing challenge around the theme of "Who Knew" in early/mid December. Many musicians here in the Alonetone community wrote some amazing songs around this…
A song about being self-centered, it needed to be full of angst and antagonism, but also needed the glimmer of something bigger still. Already people have sent me notes, which I am grateful for, but everyone seems to misinterpret the meaning of…
Full of promise, fresh, new, worries are far away but still potentially seeping in. The antagonist is never far. The song began it's life when I was messing around with some Wurly and Rhodes sounds. The riff was almost an accident, and has been…

Do any of us have any idea of what we are doing? Can we ever get it right, and do we understand the importance of blind faith? And again, the antagonist.

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…
acl is possibly the most inventive and fun listen out there. Put their entire track list on play and just sit back and enjoy. You will not be disappointed.
Holiday song written and recorded for the RPM Holiday Challenge 2011. This is about a California transplant waxing nostalgic about Christmas in New England.

She hangs a little garden
so everyone can fit in her yard
when it's time to take tea
fills it up when they're walking about
they really knew how to twist and shout
and they're always going back that way again

So I'm back at Caffe Lena on Thursday night gearing up for my two songs and a band called "Driftwood" takes the stage (banjo, acoustic guitar, fiddle) and blows everyone away.
Kinda gets me thinking...
And writing...
"Driftwood"
Coming down…
Well, here's a quick stripped-down version of a song that I wrote a couple of weeks ago and needed to record just to get it out of my head... Also my first crack at harmonizing with myself (kinda cool, but a bit weird for me to hear me singing…
Blue Bird Sax what can I say. A fantastic off the cuff blues jam recorded Mother's Day weekend 2011. Please let us know your thoughts.
BC-Bass, Mondo-Drums, Danny-Sax, Hojo-Sound

RPM 2011 number 2. Inspired by an ex-friend of mine who had the most dazzling rose tinted glasses. Always used to envy the simplicity of his view and how nothing could ever get to him (everything gets to me).. since i knew him I know a lot of…

Hey Alex, I love the tone and sonic textures on this song.
acl is possibly the most inventive and fun listen out there. Put their entire track list on play and just sit back and enjoy. You will not be disappointed.
Great ambiance and tones here. I love the kaleidoscope of sounds.
This is awesome. I love it.
Nice work. Great cover and killer twist with the new wave tones.
Nice falsettos here. I love the build heading into the parts at 1:40, actually I love the whole thing.
Another great song...love the changes and how the lead work weaves in and out of the chords.
This is fantastic. Great song...I am impressed you could use carbine in a song as well.
I love the chord progression and vox on this one. Great sound.
Great tones, love the viby gtr. You've found your vox, nice work mate.
Great track, Brett.
Great album, excellent composition.
Cool track, love the classical sound and feel. Excellent movement throughout the piece.
Great song, Cal. Super catchy, love the horn parts...
Great song Cal, we need more of you on this site.
Great song Keith, perfect for a hot summer day, while driving at the beach in a convertible.
Nice one Keith, great sing along factor on the chorus.
Great groove...Cool vibe throughout this.
Nice piece Richard, really nice.
I like the high strummed parts interjected periodically with the fuzz parts. Moody number, and I don't mean a pun here. Good stuff.
