Rich textured sound. For some reason the second piece (or the end of the first piece) really jump started my visual imagination.
Nice guitar with effects, and interesting accompaniment.

well we made our way to the old wigwam

These are really good songs. I would love to hear them recorded in a studio setting w/ equip etc.... I can feel the soul and the heart of the songs just as you have them. Very nice.
This is a bonus track of sorts for the mock EP It takes a village. I had the verse chord chages around for many years but just until last week the song and lyrics came together really quickly. I thought I heard a band arrangement originally but…
@Tess,
Its played using a YouRock guitar midi controller. I play it fingerstyle for the most accurate piano affect. It does the trick. I am using a vsti called PianoOne which is sounds most realistic for a free plugin.
I've been working on this song for 3 years. I recorded it many times. I was never happy with it until Trevor(Regs) made it a song. Fantastic job on the vox man.
Theres something I would share with you, if you ever asked me to.
Perhaps it is a secret, perhaps you already know.
Im not the boy you look for now, but I could change.
Im not in love with myself, but I think I am with you.
Lets find a road weve…
My first upload.
This is a cover of probably my favourite song of all time, by The Waterboys, who were introduced to me many years ago when the highlight of my week was Thursday night TV, pizza and quaffing Baileys.
Thanks to Sister S for…
A Mat Kearney cover. I'm moving to Australia next month and unfortunately have to give Sister Savage her lovely guitar back which she kindly lent to me (ages ago), so had to quickly get one upload on before I give it back and my stuff goes on…
Poor old Reg just can't seem to stop his old ways and leave them behind....i'm not sure he even tries you know............

The days go by
sometimes i’m high
sometimes i’m lost
sometimes i fly
High
most days i’m lost

Oh well, nothing like going to a middle school music function to break writers block, all those posters and flare about achievement...
Special thanks to my sons middle school band, The Preston Pumas playing at the end !

This could start a beer brawl! Rockin tune!
Sick right from the start. This deserves a grammy!
Fits the bill perfectly:)
Melodic indeed. Very nice.
Awesome vocals and another fine piece of songwriting.
Great songwriting. Like the rythym of the lyric. Very Nice:)
Damn good riff. Love those drum smackin away! Nice psychedelic solo.
I like the unrest of the strings. Like impending doom. Another good one!
Very, very cool. Outside the box and screaming.
Now that is some killer orchestration! Damn nice work. The depth of the instruments is so realistic.
