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…

Great song and collab. All but one of my dogs are rescue dogs, good man! I really dig your voice, Keith.

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…

yes, great lyrics. I agree with Richard, this would have a good feel as a live performance.

After listening to Brian's beautiful guitar piece "Mellow," Brian was kind enough to allow me to sing along... Never saw you coming Down my lonely road I never saw you coming Can't be sure you'll never go I know you'll be leaving But I keep believing…

Awesome back story - you cannot hide your romantic side, and I'm glad you don't try. :-) Lovely song, Keith. Very sweet.

What an interesting story, I wonder if the lady in question would recognise herself now. And a great song too.

this is very nice,, listening to you,, i am struck by the thought that id love to hear this live,, it's the sort of piece that no matter how good the recording is it must pale compared to a live hearing,,, who ever gets to hear you practice and such is very lucky

All right... So I closed the album with the fun songs (note to self... next time START the album with the fun songs).

All right, so one of those silly songs needed to find its way onto the album. In an effort to teach the students on my middle school team about rhythm in poetry, I wrote this little bit of foolishness about a fictional character (so yes, you…

Just updating all the songs from "Keeping Constant Motion" with versions that have the vocals a bit more up front... Just had to favorite this one. Of all the songs I've ever written, this one and "Amy Pond" are the most requested... Just goes to show that silliness in songwriting often speaks to people more than seriousness.

How can I not fave a song about pick-up trucks, kids climbing on the dog, and leaving Memphis. And with slide guitar to boot.
