2021 5090 #4. This one is okay. It feels a little too... mathy? Is that a thing? I feel like maybe there needs to be more going on in the chorus, but it has three part vocal harmony so there's that. Subconsciously the whole point of this…

And the 2021 50/90 Challenge is underway. One down, 49 to go. This one came quick and easy, which probably means I've written this entire song already but who cares. I like the chorus. I sing an arpeggio. It's almost like I took two years…

2021 50/90 Challenge, song #2. I started this at midnight on July 4, 2021. The very minute the 50/90 challenge started. I'm 90% sure I've used almost exactly the same melody before, and I'm 99.999% sure I've used exactly the same guitar and…

I liked this one from the very start. It was the second song I started working on this February, and it has stuck with me more than any of the others. It's kinda... swampy... nice little mid tempo groove. The bass isn't cutting through the…

This one started out life as a guitar/drums groove that I worked on for the National Solo Album Month back in November. It’s not the reason I decided to break my RPM Challenge Must Be Written in February rule, but it could have been. The lyrics…

A few years ago I was working on a 50/90 and I was stuck for lyrics. While hunting for ideas I Googled “New England folk tales” and found a few stories that I was able to use as a loose idea for a song lyric. I was trying to write lyrics for this…
