Rell Sunn, the Queen of Makaha, was a beautiful spirit and graceful surfer who lives in the hearts of all who knew her before she was called back home.

The final song in the keyed series, this one was recorded with just Zane and I. A few days before recording this one, I repaired an old digital delay/loop pedal my dad had, so we used that as one of the main elements of this song. Unlike the loop…

A somewhat ambient version of the country/folk standard.

New AR track, really keen to get a great mix, so I'd be very grateful if you could let me know how it sounds on your speakers. I'm a bit unsure about the bottom end. Any mastering tips? Thank you!

Dedicated to my sweet wife's loving mother, Millie, who is moving into hospice. She is a very thoughtful person, centered on peace and justice. The song has a guitar part that symbolizes her. The quieter echo part is Wally, who passed years ago.

sometimes honesty really is the best policy...

Now a decade old, I thought I would revisit this mix again. I have done this a few times as I continue to learn the craft. I thought it would be a good exercise to undertake as a start thinking about writing again for the next record.

I did this weeks ago & then found it again last night as I was archiving old files. This is one of those one-off improv sessions... I recorded the rhythm guitar in one pass, then one "lead" pass and then one vocal pass, and done. Even the…

This is another (short) love song...

All 45 RPM all the damn time. All love. Listen to the message. Do you know what it means? Oh yeah, and fair use!!
