I like Bad Religion. The first album I heard, I remember thinking that it was amazing that there was a smart punk band. Also, I like the way that their songs could work with an acoustic guitar, and still stand.
I thought this had a similar…

A large portion of this record was written with my friend Wilsun in mind. If anything, this is an album to amuse him. To ensure I achieved that goal, I tried to write a song that reminded me of "Life In A Northern Town", although it actually…

I was thinking this was going to be the longest song, but then the next song happened.
Anyways, title says it all. Don't let this be what you judge my abilities on. I can do better. Just go listen to my other albums, but maybe after you finish…

Sometimes you listen to a Peter Murphy song and then ask ChatGPT to help you write a song. Sometimes you end up with this. You wouldn't believe the lyrics I left out.

Don't let it be said that I've forgotten my love of R.E.M.
Dream of a life that’s never been seen
A world of possibilities, a place in between
A place of shadows, a place of light
A place of secrets, hiding in the night
Oblique, oblique…

Were you guys aware that I'm a Beatles fan? Because, well.... I am.
I don't want you to come too close

I don’t think we can be friends

"Always (Again Remix)" recorded in February 2023 for the RPM Challenge.
New recording of an old song with different arrangements. Originally started as a joke in response to Tim (of Letter Seventeen) asking AI to write a song (not) about airplanes…

A song to myself. I’ve often felt like an unnecessary appendage in the circles I end up in. I’ve had some real crazy experiences in my life, and I tend to exaggerate to try an instill the grandness I felt in each story. Sometimes, I’m annoying…

Maggie’s beautiful, heartbreaking hymn to loved ones lost too soon.
The intense, somber feeling of loss, both individual and communal, and support in the room as the other 6 or 7 of us listened to Maggie and Sara Beth perform the first take…

Here we go..Song 4 for my RPM challenge. This one was a blast to do because of its simplicity. It's a bit dark but with a hint of humour. I never thought I would need to return to nuclear allusions in a song - it isn't 1985...oh well.

Did you guys hear? There are SPY BALLOONS!!!!!
A view from above, floating so high
Watching as the world goes by
Silent and sleek, full of mystique
High altitude game of hide and seek
Flying high, floating in the air
