At the end of 2003, I was recording a bunch of covers in my basement in Portland, Oregon. This was the only original recording from that time. I was pretty bummed out at the time...
This is a track from my abandoned "Weekend Follies" album, which was recorded in my parent's basement in Mercer Island, Washington during the summer of 2003.
Hey Alec, I dig the songs!
I like that they're a little rough around the edges -- kinda like seeing a loose sketch in someone's sketchbook vs. a super-refined hyper realistic oil painting.
I also had the most depressing period of my life living in Los Angeles, and I doubt that's a coincidence, it's a tough city fer' sure. Things in my life improved tremendously as soon as I left.
Anyway, cheers for sharing the songs and staying so productive during a dark time despite it all!

This song is hilarious and great. When did all these tracks appear? I have some catching up to do.
I found the lyrics deep and moving. A nice composition.
This is nice...reminds me some what of Jonah Matranga or, his pseudo name "onelinedrawing". Nice work!
It's good to see you. Love the movement in this track.
Lovely gentle emotive vocal. Very nice in a melancholy kind of way.
