January challenge songwriting fun...
WATER UNDER WATER
So near the surface
So near the end
So near the purpose
Time and again
Just barely breathing
I’ll need you when
I’m floating in the water under water
Holding on loosely
Without letting…
I'm a teacher, a parent of elementary school children, a mental health advocate, and a pacifist. It's been a rough week... But there's still time.
TIME
Time to look in the mirror
Time to say what we believe
Is this the world we want…

Landry/Garn
When I sent this song off to Jim, he sent back tracks for a second rhythm guitar, lead guitar, and drums. Bass soon followed, and Kavin's slide dropped in nicely. Just thought I'd let y'all have a listen to what came back to me…
Agree with slkrell on this one.
I guess its time to start DL ing for this years x mas playlist
well done, i dont think ive ever gotten past 9 ladies dancing ;)
Demo version of a song I've been messing with.
I know what they're missing... The only girl.
I know what they're missing... The one and only in the world.
Eerie, mournful, beautiful, but so, so lonely.
These are the words of a friend listening to it. When you make a conscious choice as to who you should be, what you were meant to be, what you have failed to be, until now...
This one is meant…
Summer Grass- I didn’t originally intend for this to be the title track, but since most, though not all, of the songs on this album sound like summer to me, I decided, why not? The guitar even sounds humid and warm, but in that nice July way…

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 somber holiday tune written through the eyes of someone that may not be in the position to celebrate the holidays, but must look on as others do.
Recorded Nov - Dec 2018
Woot! It was a pleasure to work on this brilliantly written song. This definitely pushed my recording and arranging process beyond it typical boundaries. Much appreciation for trusting me with this beautiful little gem.
Newest song Ive written and recorded. Recorded at my sons home studio. My son produced, co wrote, and he plays the great lead guitar on the tune. Copyright by R.J. Garn and Jim Garn, December 2017.
I enjoyed this thoroughly, and as for the "guest" and his moronic comment... He has no understanding of that which he is listening. It’s sad when the idiots of the world run around giving their uninformed, unfounded, and just plain stupid opinions - all while maintaining anonymity. Go to hell, guest. Please, go to hell.
Comments on Keith Landry's stuff
Super Arrangement . Great writing here. You and Greg Connor are my two heros when it comes to one voice one guitar. Faved Keith.
Thank you for this Keith. Very moving track my friend.
That's a wonderful track.
Now that is one cool track mate. Excellent.
Great way to convey what everyone is thinking . . . at least I hope we're all thinking that.
A wonderful expression of hope. Thanks Keith
What a beautiful track written in our time of sorrow, of young lives lost. I was in tears. Thank you, Keith for this heart moving track
Excellent playing, sir. Very powerful song. ER
Tops really cool.
Yeah! This is great.
Awesome.
Ha ha sweet! Rockin version Keith! RPM is almost here again! I better get my a$$ in gear!
A nice, upbeat take on this classic. I bet your arm was aching after that. Bee
Festive fun! Now I want to put my Christmas Tree up!
Cool..I added it to my Christmas list!

Definitely darker than the typical Gary Fox selection. Crazy production quality. Damn fine top five playlist, Gary.
...And one of these days you're going to make an all acoustic album. Or else.
This is one of the first of your songs I ever heard. Instant fan. Been stalking you ever since.
Love when the band kicks in. How have I not favorited this before?
I can see why you chose this excellent song for the ultimate Gary Fox playlist. Getting more and more jealous by the minute.
Yup. Definitely a top fiver. Such a ridiculously good opening riff... And then the song gets better. And better. And better.
Loved this from the opening note.
Dang, man. This is good. Like really really good.
I love this treatment of what was originally the roughest Landry demo ever recorded.
Woot! It was a pleasure to work on this brilliantly written song. This definitely pushed my recording and arranging process beyond it typical boundaries. Much appreciation for trusting me with this beautiful little gem.
Man, GREAT to hear from Garn studios!!!
I ordered the fish and I got the stupid. Great album, Matt!
This is soooooo good.
"I still will buy him!" And the geek shall rule the Earth.
I was happy at the start, happier with the banjo, and sent to another level when the band kicked in.
Lin Manuel Miranda has nothing on you. Damn.
OUTSTANDING FROM THE FIRST NOTE. Holy crap, Matt. This is incredible.
Seriously, this is indi film soundtrack gold.
Dude, I love this from the get.
