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…
I threw this one together tonite/early am...yawnnnnn. Not an exact replica but always a tribute to Jimi's music. I was originally turned on to do this by some new free vst effects I found on the net. A cool fuzz face vst that is very realistic…

Here 's a new one from the Kite boys. It's not been floating around too long, it's been quite a quick one from the moment that Tim dropped a little gem into our in boxes.

This is a little ditty I did for a local songwriting group I'm in. The prompt was "No instruments" and a previous prompt was "One chord only", so I combined the two.
The haikus were written for a creativity group I'm in, so I used them for…

I thought I'd uploaded this ages ago!
Less chaotic 'Chaos' after I found a melody I was happy with, and the delay button :)
Enjoy! xox
P.S. I knew I'd seen it on here somewhere - it was uploaded by Jip under Third Quarter of the Moon :)

We woke Elvis up for this little beauty for the 70's fest over on Songcrafters …the piano is a bit dodgy but then again Jango isn't known for his piano playing….a song from Jim's back Catalogue back in February 1970 from the Morrison Hotel album…
Poor old Reg has taken a walk in the desert to try and find salvation......I got the Acoustic out for this one.

Dynamics of your vocals shine thru on these stripped down songs. Nice harp playin....Dylanesque.
Tbe vid is sweet. Love the floating bee. Very cool.

Wild......from a phone.
Hearing some different genres overlapping musically. Nice introspective lyrically.
