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…

A collab with Mike_S over from the otherside at songcrafters on his instrumental track King & Country which he kindly took the lead off for me to play with and i came up with this Thanks Mike The people like ants looked up and they just…

This is a stripped down cover of the excellent Gary Fox song Carolina.

Here is a cover of Matt Ferrara's song "Obey" - Had this song stuck in my head for a good chunk of February, so I figured I would put it to tape. A little slower than the original with a similar feel. I really wanted to see if I could record…

Swamp Thing is a custom built guitar by Tony Louscher at Luthier’s Workshop in Green Bay, WI. I wrote the main riff three years ago and it sounded “swampy” to me. For the 2020 RPM Challenge, I dusted off the little riff and created this tune…
