When I was a junior in high school, I read the book "Illusions" by Richard Bach. It was "that book" for me and at age sixteen I started realizing what I was capable of becoming.
I read it again twenty-five years later, and as the line in the…

Well, this is the hastily written, poorly performed, weakly sung, badly mixed love song I threw together a few years back about the last time I saw the Northern Lights. It happened to be the night I fell in love with my future wife (and knew…
So Jim of "Movement to Contact" asked me a couple of weeks ago to send him something...
I had no idea how ridiculously good the final result would come out.

RPM 2014
take a stand against the man
when you’re backed into the corner
bears his teeth and growls
and scratches his claws on the floor
it takes a village to decide
how to count the many ways
to know your wrong from right
that don…

been so long since I’ve been out of the city
maybe even longer than I can remember
tried to leave many times, oh what a pity
there’s no around anymore to take me away
should I be a hermit in a barrel

RPM 2014
clenching teeth
through an iron jaw
your eyes are just slivers on your face
rosy glow
on your porcelain cheeks
there is nothing not a trace
happy, are you?
losing sleep
the weight is heavy
you can barely keep afloat

Decided to upload a work in progress from a heavy side project called : Lab Survivor.
I have a few things in the works coming up, hopefully including an all acoustic RPM. Finally have the studio up and running with some new upgrades :) Wahoo…
This is a song of hope. I hope ya'll enjoy. I used reason for the backing track and my phone to record guitar and vox.

Still trippin' on my footprints
Clean my cuts and reminisce,
About the way things…
Kaboom!
I feel this wind in my face
I think you can take pictures now
I'm falling down
I feel this echo in my head
I think is time to open the parachute
I'm falling down
Kaboom!
Now I try desperately
to keep my calm with a…

New favorite. These opening licks are outstanding. Seriously, I could listen to these acoustic arrangements all day.
Ooooh... This track had me from the opening notes. Favorite track so far.
Love that lead acoustic guitar. GREAT sound.
Dang!
Beautifully haunting. GREAT concept for an album. If this track is any indication, RPM 2014 is going to make for some excellent music from you, sir.
Dang.
Yes! Acoustic RPM!!!
Great sound. Brilliantly arranged, written, and performed (as always). First rate all around.
