Sometimes you need to stay up late to try to force yourself to dream.

Well, I sent this simple little arrangement off to Jana to see what he thought it needed. When he suggested a uke, I said "Go for it!"
He was right... Can't thank him enough for his contribution.

What does a songwriter do when he's addicted to Doctor Who (and his new very cute companion)? He writes...
Amy Pond
Red hair and that pretty face beneath it
My how you've grown up after oh so many years
I've only been away for ten or…
Hm. An ode to a pretty young redhead. Does your wife know about this? Just kidding.
Nice song, sir. And our family has started watching more and more of BBC America lately, too.

Well, screw the metronome, damn the torpedoes, and grab a capo!
Sometimes the best versions are the ones played fast and loose. Hope you enjoy this song adapted from one of my all-time favorite poems (I'm a bit biased since my dad wrote it…
So I dropped the guitar into DADGAD tuning for the first time, threw a capo on the third fret, rifled off something nice, and sent it to Movement to Contact for his contribution, got it back, did some mixing...
Here is the result.

Added a little more to this nice little change of strumming patterns played as an excuse to write a little love song.
I FOUND LOVE
You know I love you more than I
Ever thought one simple man could
You know I need you more than I

Other layers may or may not be in the works, but I thought I'd let everyone have a listen so far.
HERE WE ARE TODAY
How can it be so clear
In my mind
The first night you were here
Like going back in time
Sweet as summer wine
Your whisper…

A song written for a great girl who'll be getting married next year...
"You'll always be this young if love comes first
And you stay filled with life."
I'm glad you like this one so much, Tess. I actually wrote it for a friend of mine (a terrific girl) who'll be getting married next summer. I only see her once a year at her brother-in-law's Labor Day weekend party, and when I heard she was engaged, this song just came out... The sentiment could apply to any young girl, however... "You'll always be this young if love comes first and you stay filled with life."
A good friend of mine Harris Kidd filmed a short piece of work starring my other great friend (and my drummer) Zay Brignall, anywaaays he asked if I could make a soundtrack for it soooo I sat down and watched it over and over and started plunking…
Believe it or not, this song was written while swimming laps in the high school pool (I had to have the life-guard kid write down lines for me every time I returned from the deep end). Oddly enough, the first line I came up with was "Swimming…
Wellll it's not really a mystery, it's a little Beatles remixing!! I've basically just mashed together Octopus's Garden and All My Lovin'.
Hope you like it!
toooons of fun makin it :)
After writing this song about our newly adopted dog, I asked Kavin if he like to play some slide guitar, knowing that he would come up with something terrific... I just had no idea how terrific.

Thanks to everyone for so many positive comments about this song (and thank you again to Kavin for making it sound so good). So many great dogs out there and we were just lucky enough to adopt one of the best.
Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode
Licensed for my new "Forever" CD by HFA this song is from "Prince of Persia". It's a song about having faith that all troubling things will turn out allright. All you have to do is believe it will.

Another oldie but goodie (again, apologies for the few seconds of silence it takes to get to the intro). This song is the first that I really tried to record properly, written around Christmastime four or five years ago with my seventh grade…
Again, apologies for the silence before this song gets going as well as for the inconsistent vocals... I hope the message overrides any lack of ability with respect to the song's execution.
The first recorded version of this song, this little folk song was originally written fifteen or so years ago with just the four chord rhythm guitar and single vocal. The song became what it is today when I needed to write additional verses for…
Recorded a while ago when I really didn't have any idea what I was doing... Even so, the talent of the kid in the duet comes through. Apologies for the opening seven seconds of silence (hmmm... I may need to name my next album that).
This is a song that started as just an idea I had playing live one lovely thursday evening and I just started playing this progression and sang some gibberish over it and I came up with the "chorus" part and and the Idea of asking questions in…
If you think this one's great, you need to go over and listen to Corbin's "One Step at a Time." It will get stuck in your head... And you'll be glad it did.
This is a piece Norm and I collaborated on last year. We hope you will enjoy it.
two improvised 12 string guitar lines
bass line ( I took a few takes)
improvised piano
Norm's percussion in Tumbao rhythm
When I wrote this it was a cold cloudy and dark winter night here in vancouver but I was sitting in my room and was just in a sunny state of mind. I then picked up my Uke and started fiddlin around searching for a breezy chord progression, then…
Comments on Keith Landry's stuff
Hey Keith - this is the demo vocal not the final one, but I'm happy if you're happy. Tess
Tess voice is just too got not to fave it myself.
That is one cool track mate.
Sounds good, Keith. Very nice. ER
the uke IS perfect, vox are signature. great tune
Very cool man, the uke makes for a good addition. :)
That's one for my collection. Nice collab.
True, he is right. An inspired addition Keith.
Hm. An ode to a pretty young redhead. Does your wife know about this? Just kidding. Nice song, sir. And our family has started watching more and more of BBC America lately, too. ER
the magic of ...ONE!.... nice thoughts!
Thanks Rob! Glad you like the stuff... The new CD is currently in the works!
Hey, really nice cut! Just last night found the info you gave me about your work. I look forward to checking it all out. Talk to you soon, Rob DuBoff
sounds great
Just messing with some simple added arrangement... It'll probably need some volume work with the extra guitar tracks, but I kinda like the additions.
Nice!
Sweet little ditty.
sounds like slightly more up tempo than I remember the first version... i like it :)
Yep i think you put the last nail in this one man.
very pretty this keith..
Two minutes of pleasure. Thank you

Great sound! Very well done.
Very cool.
Just going through February's RPM Challenge songs... Upped the volume on the vocals a bit (hopefully not too much).
Very cool. I wish I was brave enough to try to cover music from the gods... You handle it beautifully!
Thanks to everyone for so many positive comments about this song (and thank you again to Kavin for making it sound so good). So many great dogs out there and we were just lucky enough to adopt one of the best.
Great song in every way!
Wow... Soooooooo good.
Wow... What a voice.
Big thanks to Kavin for making this song more than I could have possibly imagined with his incredible slide guitar.
Very nice. So great to find another great artist to follow!
Great track... I'd love to see the movie that goes with this soundtrack!
Again, apologies for the silence before this song gets going as well as for the inconsistent vocals... I hope the message overrides any lack of ability with respect to the song's execution.
Very nice... Will there be any words to go with this in time? Although it is great just asit is.
Magnificent track!
Man, Kavin... This is just great stuff... Playing my way through some of your tunes and enjoying them all!

Wow... REALLY nice!
Yup, back again to listen to the terrific song.
