The RPM Challenge does weird things to a guy, I tell you. The chorus to this one popped into my head, fully formed, at about 9:15pm on Saturday February 27. I wrote the whole thing that night, including lyrics and melody, and recorded all but…

The most last minute song I have. I woke up early on Sunday February 28. At about 7:00am The riff from the chorus of this song popped into my head. I sang it into the new iOS music notes app so that I wouldn't forget it. The lyrics for the…

I didn't get shut out this year! My demo plans for 2016 are proving to be way too elaborate so I wrote and recorded this in GarageBand on my iPad in one sitting. The music is overly simple and the lyrics are throw away, but it's done. Guitars…

Song three of (probably) 10 for NaSoAlMo. I'm still going with the plan of longer(ish) songs that feature at least a little bit of 12-string guitar. So far so good. I sort of like the chorus on this one, but the verses aren't all that hot…
