A tribute song to the unofficial mayor of Portsmouth New Hampshire. If you're in town, stop by The Press Room and say "hi".
lyrics
Master of music
King of the blues
Shakespearian insults
A well-rounded dude
Legend says he’s six foot…
You start off watching a TV show. You end up with a song.
lyrics
Another night alone, sitting with myself
Thinking of how it used to be
I try to distract myself
Flipping through channels on TV
I come upon you there
Staring back at…
It's tough making money in the music biz. Inspired by the song "Cake By The Ocean".
Tim - lead and backing vocals, bass, drum programming, keys. Clarke - backing vocals. Grant - drums. Bob - guitars, backing vocals, beatboxing.

A love song about fate.
Tim - guitar and vocal.
Before I knew you I felt the gravity
Something beyond control I knew was pulling me
Binding us together in ways I couldn’t see
And i would come to know there was only you for me (you for…

Thanks, Gary. All of the credit for the keys (and the awesome stick bass in the verses) goes to Clarke McMurray. He killed it. This song has an odd feature where I'm playing bass in the choruses and Clarke is playing stick in the verses.
Ah. Love that chord progression. I await an album full of these songs. Then again, that would likely make the world would fly off its axis.
Seriously, man, first rate all the way.
There are too many battles to fight in life, sometimes it's best to just walk away.

Can you hide in happiness
Can you disguise the sadness in your voice
Could you play only major chords
Can you hide in happiness
Choose a part of you to show
And no one around you can know
Just how deep the scars go
Can you hide in…
Now with more awesomeness! Thank you to This Wretched Vessel Lead vocalist for adding in some Gang vocals to beef up the chorus. Also borrowing their percussionist for some tambourine to give the song some extra pop!
You know I can’t think…

This is like a lost Railway Children song from a session where they were letting one of the other guys sing for once. Nice work, and it features your usual upbeat lyrical content! :)

I'm waiting for a package to arrive
I'm sitting idle hoping it's on time
It's not good for my health
I'm losing patience with myself but
I'm waiting for a package to arrive
Waiting for things to arrive
Comments on Letter Seventeen's stuff
Brilliant!
This is a gem of a track, Tim!
I'm still waiting for the music video for this tune, it must happen!
really love this song........
a very good song, well performed :-)
Awaiting the all Letter Seventeen all-acoustic singer/songwriter album.
Love this one. Because let's face it, I don't need to be a millionaire; I'd settle on being a thousandaire.
This weird thing is my favorite. :)
Like this really cool track

Love the various keys parts on this one!
This is a killer collection.
Great song!
remember this one. :)
wow. smoooooooov. very much enjoyed that.
You need help. But please please please don't ever seek it.
Ah. Love that chord progression. I await an album full of these songs. Then again, that would likely make the world would fly off its axis. Seriously, man, first rate all the way.
Dude, your vocals are spot on. Really impressed.
Ah, love that Andy Samford lead guitar. Crazy good as always.
Yes. I am home.

Great energy and great fun.
I totally want to see the movie trailer this should accompany! Major bonus points for the trumpet, too.
Apparently Ed likes the Allman Brothers. Who knew?
Excellent song and killer guitar tones!
Such a catchy chorus! At times you really remind me of Eleanor Friedberger.
I love hearing you embrace your pop sensibilities. Another home run.
Wow. This is really great. The key are perfect and the affected vocal sounds amazing. And then some perfectly placed drum bits. Well done!
Whoa. The revision with the new backing vocals is really great!

Great space and sound, sir. I look forward to hearing this in context of the larger story.
I wish this were four times longer. So, you know, like two minutes long.
Man... there's something about your melodic choices that I just adore. Nice work!
Wilsun, the remix king!
I’m honored to be chopped up and reconstituted so. Great work and great fun! Ow, if you’ll pardon me, I need to go find a shiny shirt.
Great voice and a great bit of talent here. Your EP is quite excellent. Keep up the great work!
Spectacular! There's sort of an Eleanor Friedberger vibe to this that I really love. MORE PLEASE!
Wow. That really opens up at 2:00. Great stuff!
This is great! I’m pretty sure my recording of Wilsun’s entire album last year was shorter than this song. 😂
This sounds like an 80s metal power ballad, and I mean that in all the best possible ways.
I swear your Green Day mode sounds so much like them it's scary. Fun little tune!
