I have to give credit to my baby daughter Amelia for inspiring the basic groove of this song. No vocals yet.

This one varies between having a rock-ambient feel and more playful as well. It's long, but you have to stick around for a fun part at the end!

lyrics are "poop" by Charles Bukowski

It's not much of a life trapped inside a cocoon of your own making. Finale from "Dead In The Water" album. A longer track, but it's worth the time to fully digest.

An Irish Hornpipe.

A fingerpicky tune from the old days. Tuning is DADF#AD Capo III.

Imagine a Mexican quintette playing a fast waltz. There are 3 melodies played in 3/4 time, in a sort of non-standard ABCABC format. The title is a photographic/geographic/melodic play on words. There is a merging of European waltz and Mexican…

This is the first 100% Liz-written song! Hooray! It's about a shitty party I went to on New Year's Eve. It sucked really hard. My bandmate MK was on antibiotics and couldn't drink, and this guy kept passing us by way too close getting his ass…

Main Title track for A Soundtrack To An Imaginary Movie...

An old Stephen Foster song (Pub. Domain) Always waiting, hopeful sorrow. Featuring my spouse, Marily!!!! I could have picked a song to do her justice, next time. My phrasing is kind of hard to follow...

Rather incomplete... let me know if you want me to fix this guy up a bit more. I get lazy when I think that most people won't care about the mix being perfectly tight. I think you can tell enough just from the title.

From dis-content and dis-harmony following to the beat of another drummer.

Descending though the darkness searching for the moment of clarity.

I wrote this one in my head, which doesn't happen very often (I'm not blessed that way). Not sure what you call it, a lullaby of sorts I suppose.

I wanted to write something Inspired by John Lurie's music from the kids TV show "Oswald." Here it is...

...I want, that you should know, you should listen to my loving voice that call you with me to the far star about which we dreamt with you...

lovely city

This song-congratulation happy birthday. ..Angels have gone down from the sky for you to begin to whirl in magic dance...

Short theme for a French laundry detergent commercial...it didn't get used, but I like the melody. I Originally wrote it for piano.

Straight ahead stone city electric blues for an old friend who used to spend hours spinning BB King and Mike Bloomfield records for me. Recorded back sometime at the end of 2006 on old analog equipment

A simple solo acoustic guitar track for a dear departed four legged friend. Written 2005. Recorded Jan 9 2009.

the sweet and sorrowful song of my favorite indian instrument ,the sarangi,the indian cello,three major chords,and 32 sympathetic strings,i needed to go to india in order to learn how to play,studying with a guru,in jiaphur,in the rajastan,i still…

Written after visiting a farmhouse I was considering moving to. Piano, accordion, bass.

a sweet guitar jazz improvisation ... I hope ... peace, rei

Get up the Yard!

first in a series of five pieces for the noble and ancient sarod,exploring scenes from the life of the virgin mary,the first being the annonciation,this is the full version,the film version being only 2 min 40 sec.

Drunken piper. Arrangement by the Dublin 4

This was a favourite tune of Chief O'Neill (you don't say!) an Irish police captain in the USA who used to enlist Irish musicians into the police force so they could play music sessions together.

We are still working on making some words for this song. We like to make up silly titles for songs before we have the lyrics, so the title is just kind of random. Liz does everything on this track, with the help of Garageband.

Spaghetti Party was our first foray into recording a complete song. MK came up with the idea of writing a song about her friend/co-worker who has "spaghetti parties" which involve him lying on his back on a couch in the basement by himself shoveling…

stick sings

Bonus Track

Recorded: December 2004

Shreya's composition, a tale of love and death that is also perhaps a sly reference to the most famous proponent of the ontological argument for you-know-who. This is the dreamy guitar version, and there is also a classical-sounding piano version…

Flow is all around us, and sometimes there is a lack of flow. This show explored the different facets and associations of flow.

This was the first song Shreya played me, and she said it came to her in a dream, and I believe it. It's flooring, and her vocals/acoustic guitar are relatively untouched. I added the other virtual instruments, and if you listen carefully, you…

Just one of my ambient "places to go live for a while" pieces

A little trip on the underground

This piece is my original almost-fugue-sounding arrangement of my favorite Ukranian “Christmas Carol”, Carol of the Bells, as if J.S. Bach had written it. Ingredients: Warmth, depth, complexity, eternal romance. Dedicated to my Belle. This was…

A music for a girl, a music for the music, muses...

Do your best, not another one's

Try to get to the moon for a girl, and discover that you are alone in space...

Originally a very different song, slowed to a dragging pace and laced with dense moans of twisted agony. There's a little bit of John MacDonald on lead guitar in the build too.
