Inspired by Tess' little Morwenna and my (getting bigger) Jessica. Writing back and forth with Bethan, I came to realize that a song needed to be written about the significance of the statements that so often come from the mouths of babes…
This song has got me bro....
I feel Quite emtional listening to it!
The "My little girl was awful quiet" Verse reminds me of when the boy was a new born...
It's like a High definition Picture of Life.
You are an excellent Storey teller bro. And a True Tallent!
I'm Gonna be listening to this a lot!

What started as an interesting hiking concept that I contrived for my sister's next trip out "Hey, what if you climbed up Sleeping Beauty Mountain and I climbed up Shelving Rock. We could get out the binoculars and see each other from different…
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…
"The pictures that she paints while you're keeping time might just make you think again if you don't believe in the divine." Simply, it's a delicate little song appreciating the talents behind a beautifully written and performed song with the…

Wonderful song, special words, Keith! Much more gentle than the actual words spoken by Morwenna, which were, 'Don't worry, you'll sleep after you've cried.' :-D

Finally, the finishing touches seem to be put on this three-year-old song thanks to some very talented people.
The band is:
Liam (age 13 at the time of recording) on drums
A Girl Named Sam (she's no kid!) with the backing vocals
Genevieve…
This year will be my fifth year coaching one of my daughters in tee ball, and although I played ball competitively into my thirties, coaching the kids is easily the most fun I've ever had on the diamond.
Another song from the archive... Written about a friend who somehow seemed to come out of her general sad manner... Thoughts go back to a lunar eclipse when the girl I was standing next to to watch it (way back in college) disappeared from sight…
As a 'guest' mentioned, add harmonies!
i'd love to hear this with a full band, lotsa energy needing a way out! I'd be tempted to pop this on my 32 track and add harmonies, makes me wish I had a drumkit (my favorite instrument to play!)
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…
Ah, my critical teenage piano player. Well, the music wouldn't get better if not for the constructive (or at times just needling) criticism!... And her suggestions are usually pretty accurate which is why I tend to defer to her on musical arrangements.

Yeah a little piano single-note melody would sound great. i tried it out. I just went along and stayed in the same range you did (basically) and i think that would fill up this song. You might be able to do it with a base guitar too...if it was soft enough
you got me analyzing and fixing your problems :P

Wow look at you getting fancy with your guitar melody!! And hey!! look at that, no more monotone!! much better. Though, there is something missing...I think a single note piano melody would fill up the whole there.

ooooooooooo...I LIKE THIS ONE!!
HAHAHHAA why are you so monotone??? you have an upbeat happy guitar and then you come in sounding like you've just been hit by a truck and can't move your vocal chords. with the except of the SAME high note here and there. Love the Lyrics tho. Just soften up your voice a little...maybe try harmonizing with the melody...something other than the same note over and over again.
My response to John Denver's "Rocky Mountain High."
The first time I dropped my lowest string
Was for Rocky Mountain High
Last night I caught a flight
To see the fire in the sky
Where John found twenty-seven
Now I'm turning thirty-five…

Messing with pitch adjustment in Garageband (and getting a bit carried away)... I use this primarily as a 90-second countdown for competitions in my 7th grade math class (kind of a Jeopardy theme song).
Someday I'll actually teach myself how to play this song for real... Only a drag-and-drop composition for now, but awfully nice to listen to (particularly the gentle part at around 2:00).
No, this is NOT me playing... Just some arranging of drop and drag samples out of Garageband for Mac I was messing around with while learning how the program worked a few years ago.
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…
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
Wow... So envious of such talent. This is just an outstanding track, Kirk. If ever you'd like to play anything (and I mean anything) on any of my tracks, just say the word! Damn this song is beautiful. I bow to the master.
Thanks for listening to this track... Of all the songs I've written (or should I say of all the songs that have written themselves through me), this one is my favorite.
Hey, great track, Peter!... And thanks for coming over to listen to some of my stuff... The tracks you tuned in to are seriously old and poorly performed, so please forgive the quality!

Stong work.
Super song writing man!
ahh the slow song. Awesome lyrics. I like this one, a little empty but nothing that a small extra melody can't fix. A-
I remember this song! You told me about it sometime...It came out pretty good! This is definitely one of my favorites. A- (what key is it in?..)
Hey, not bad. I actually really like it. Get get a B+ (i'd give you an A but its probably in the key of D)
Lovely job.
Wow man, bravo.
<3 and x x Wonderful song, special words, Keith! Much more gentle than the actual words spoken by Morwenna, which were, 'Don't worry, you'll sleep after you've cried.' :-D
What wonderful lyrics Keith. Lovely song indeed.
Great song, fantastic.
Awesome tune! Brings back memories of my own kids in BBall...;>) Thanks!

The new version is soooo much better. even though my part has been guitar-ized. and you still swear...
Super all round sound. Great song you got there and your own band now. Wahhoo!
Good mix, vocals are good, and like the "chunky" guitar and drums. All around good one.
Comments made by Keith Landry
I apologize in advance for the slight run into "cheesy-ness" at around 0:40... A bit "Romeo's Tune-ish" there for a minute, but all in good fun.
Just some more drop and drag... Personally, I'm addicted to the little "Thomas Crown-ish" piano runs at around 1:30.

Ah... This track is just good for the soul.
Ha! This is great fun to listen to... Love the sax! Enjoy that couch!
"A wild time is starting down at Kappa Phi... You haven't caught my eye... That might be a lie."
Very nice!

A little rebalancing... Some arrangement starting at 2:00 or so... But same sweet little song and same incredible vocals from Sister Savage.
Very nice track... Great arrangement... Simple and sweet. Nicely done!
Hey kid! Great song! Great harmonies! Soooo good to hear new stuff from you... More please!
Great track!

Wow... Great track! I need to find some time to listen to the am/fm dreams complete playlist.
Ah, great arrangement, Richard!
Hey Richard! Great stuff... LOVE the strings!!! Great "sit back, think, and feel" music for me... Just outstanding.
All right, now I'm really envious... Great stripped down rhythm guitar kicking into one of the catchiest songs I've ever heard. Just great stuff!!!
