From the movie "Excalibur," Merlin's Charm of Making: Anál nathrach, orth bháis bethad, do chél dénmha. English: Serpent's breath, charm of death and life, thy omen of making.
A piece of music written during the tumult of grad school applications. The idea is for the saxophone and drums to be in rhythmic opposition for the majority of the written segments. The piece is in 9/8 and centered around minor 7ths and tritones.
I Love the fact that No man is an Island.
These Guys Made me a Very Happy man By covering one of my songs.
I am Still Over the Moon!!!

I recorded the vocals on this about 14 years ago. An amazing pianist friend of mine from Europe, G.Longabardi, played the piano. Jonathan Sacks from California flew to Texas to co-write the music. If you're out there somewhere Jonathan, contact…
One day my husband was describing someone as a floosie galore. First I cracked up; then I wrote this song. Do you think I have to share royalties with him? :) I recorded all the vocal parts on this several years ago at Boyd Recording Studio…

I was at a friends house and saw a little…
Not originally intended as an acoustic song...but I couldn't get the big riff at the end to sound right with big distorted guitars, and then I realized on acoustics it might sound like it had a little Days Of The New influence.
Track 9 from…
Deadlines, freeways, appointments, things to do lists, expectations, getting older, not enough hours in the day to get everything done? ..... make each day and moment count! Thanks to Dave Matthews for a lick I threw in there. Enjoy!
Mining the archives a bit. This is an alternate take of my "Jimi Jam" from a couple of years ago. Live to 2 tracks with the Jamman. Really only sounds OK when cranked up loud enough that your eardrums threaten to meet in the middle. LOL!!
Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode
Kind of a Sonic Youth version of the old folk tune. This was with my band Lincoln The Chain. Our vision was to create new and weird versions of tunes from the old timey days. Traveling music for post apocalyptic underground railroad...
All of creation is conspiring to shower you with blessings, right? Right. But not all of those blessings are sweet and delightful. Let's talk about the other kinds.
