I wrote this one in response to a song writing challenge from the Minnesota Association of Songwriters. The title had to be Mississippi Moon and it had to have a I V VI I II chord progression somewhere in the song. Over 20 writers have signed…

always liked this song, hats off to Radiohead Cheers!

This is a true story. Im pretty sure this guy still has a taxi job on the night shift in Denver. Too long since I’ve posted a song. Most importantly, I got Norm to dust off the skins and record some percussion for me. Good to hear Norm and…

Music written and performed by Mike Smith, also known as Dragonsong. When Mike first asked me to read this poem, he believed it was written around the time of the Spanish Flu...but, our sources say no. It was most likely written by Kitty O…

A simple one-track mandolin tune. In fact it's the first tune I ever made on the mandolin. I think it would be better with a bodhran drum accompanying it, but I don't know how to play those! Maybe someday this will work its way into something…

This is more of a description than a song. It's my contribution to the Minnesota Homebrew Radio Show monthly song writing challenge: "Write a song about your first car."

Live in the Grackle backyard 9/13/20

This is one of only two songs from this year's 50/90 that was started on guitar rather than bass. It's also one of three where the vocals were recorded on a day where I couldn't sing in tune to save my life. It's also one of three where the…

I play a directed improvisation in classical finger picking style on my EOB strat with Hall of Fame reverb.

Inspired by a drum track from Emily Dolan Davies I tried to produce a cinematic sounding track.

Poor old Reg everything was going swimmingly until he fell of the wagon, 6 weeks dissapeared and guess what his wife didn't understand and he's out on his ear again, he's got no one to blame but himself but he's gone a bit weird this time…

a rather punk meets noise statement about the burning of the refugee camp on Lesbos. vocal, guitars, drums, bass.

Another Thumbjam thing inspired by Japanese Gagaku music

(Remastered 22/10/2021) And here's another song from 1994, with a sparkling new "Andrew Russe Band" arrangement fresh from the broom-cupboard. Like most of my songs, it was written with an acoustic guitar, a pen, and an A4 pad. The ones…

(Remastered 22/10/2021) Now here's a bit of an oldie - the second song I ever wrote. In... 1978! I think I played it once, or maybe twice, at school assemblies. My musical peers and colleagues back then dismissed it as corny/rancid pop music…
