Just a small improvisation recorded with my cell phone...

A beat i made, hope you guys like it! Tell me what you think!

The kids at their best. Jessica on flute, Rebecca on saxophone, Amelia on clarinet.

The inspiration for this year's album. I wanted to make a track that would make both Neil Degrasse Tyson and Pete Seeger happy... ...I hope you ruminate on the size of the universe - and just what that means - while hearing the girls play.

So Jessica recorded this in one take. It won't be long before I'm just the guy that hits record. ...And she's already working out the harmonies.

Arranged by Jessica (with contributions from Amelia), I've gone days without being able to shake this melody.

A nod to ACL's inspired musical genre "Bunny Funk." Sadly, squirrels don't tend to be as happy as bunnies.

Rebecca shocked me with her vocals on this little song about the family dog's lack of intelligence.

Yeah, I know. There's an out of tune string in there. Well, bite me. I like it.

Recorded when we weren't sure how close to the 35-minute mark we were getting for the RPM Challenge... And every second counts. Besides, we didn't have any "woos" on the album. And woos always make an album better

It’s a lasting impression Every time that you call It’s my only intention Leave you nothing at all Whenever you ask me I’m doing just fine It’s the dance that I do Every single time It aint what it looks like, not like that at…

Thanks Merry Bear for cleaning this up for me!

This is the first song I have made with FL Studio since I got it. I am really liking the sound I am getting.

This is a song I wrote this week, trying to capture that strange emotion you sometimes feel during times of great milestones in your life - good things happening, changes, moving on. Joy and melancholy all at the same time. Everyone feels it…
