"For You" and "Feel Flows" were two songs created for the 2022 RPM Challenge. "For You" was a real song, with lyrics, singing, guitar, etc., the works. "Feel Flows" however, was filler. It's basically like an super-extended dub remix of…

"Smalltown Boy" by Bronski/Somerville/Steinbachek I dug up my old iPad Air (1st gen 2013) out of storage a few days ago. This was an exercise of what an old iPad with an old version of GarageBand can still do. It was actually fun to have limited…

Forty days of rain Last night the sky was burning red It's been hard just keeping sane With all the voices in my head A forty-night long test Of an unrelenting mind Waking I looked west When you snuck up from behind The sun came out…

I met a buddy out for dinner To catch up on our lives Both way less saint and way more sinner At least, according to our wives But as he got himself a-talking He sounded more and more insane What he believed became so shocking For who…

Standing in the sunlight Trying to shade my eyes A lonely child's spotlight When you've got two strikes A little piece of you dies When a third sails by Dancing in the moonlight The fire in her eyes If I play this just right Maybe…

Be gentle, be still.

I sat at the dock and watched time slow into an object.

This one is short and to the point. Dedicated to those with with guts to fly in the face of conformity and live their best life. I try but it's hard to detox after all these years. Recorded as part of the August 2022 RPM - Record Every Month challenge…

In the greater scheme of this vast universe, we're just invisible specks. Something to remember as we trip through this bizarre human life of ours. Recorded for the August 2022, RPM Record Every Month Challenge.

You crave the sea, the oceans far away And further every day You watch the sky, and see the birds all fly Towards their destiny But where are they going? And when can we leave? You’re climbing up, the mountain’s summit Just a few more…
