Thickened from my original concept of banjo and voices only. I may still like that version more, but the big shanty choir I perform with wanted to do it and I needed to arrange it with parts for banjo AND accordion (!!!) plus a whistle. No bass in the group, but as a former bass player I couldn…read more

My motto is INWARD THRU THE FOG. One day about a month ago, Laura ‘Taylor’ Whitfield told me I should, “write that song.” Thinking back on a fog-bound night in California, I wrote it.

If my heart be broken let it be by beauty

If my back be breaking let it…read more

How many miles must Guillermo walk?
Before all my good intentions are more that just talk…
How many shoes must his toe wear thru?

No chance to pull over so I drive past
His hands are twisted. His gait, a…read more

This song was written on guitar by Kari Eskola from Finland. He sent me his guitar track along with this fantastic vocal recording by Emmi Inkeri asking me to replace the guitar with a piano accompaniment.
