oooo nice opening.... beautiful interlude, interesting allegorical kind of story about the runaway. I love the way you tell stories in your songs. I also like your voice best when it stands alone, don't think it needs your other voices. :) ~danielle

i am thinking about words tonight they can be hard as nails they-can be as shapeless as water they can break your heart they can hang like a chain hold you up for years cause you to think twice take away your fears you are falling in love…

a river of emotions. the guitar and lyric flow through the mind. they embody powerful desire. she knows you. you cannot say no to her. it is a very good song. 0x0

Great acoustic guitar sound. Do you use condenser mics for acoustic? I like the lyrics and harmony vocals also.

I love alonetone, but one of the things I'm having trouble getting used to is that you can't reply to comments (?, or can you...?). So, the organ tone in 'soak' is sampled from one of those old reed pump organs. My parents have had one forever, and I sampled some notes and plugged them into MachFive. Other than that I use Digital Performer on an aging Mac. Guitars are direct for the most part, through some effects, and drums are samples, either my own kit or other samples. How about you?

This one has a really nice vibe; the marriage of vocals, melody, production, lyrics, and playing go really well together.
