    Productive day!

    Came up with a first verse and chorus to an original blues song. Now I’m on pins and needles for that aha moment to arrive. Rhythm riff. Right now, I got nothin’. Happy hump day! Now, go forth and hump ❤️

    City-cide

    I’ve been playing melancholy acoustic versions of this song like I owe someone an apology. Honestly, it’s about my paternal grandmother. Anyway, this was the first time I did it in a recording where I didn’t mess it up that bad. Now? Practice, practice, practice, and mess with equalization. Thanks for watching, regardless of what…

    Letting Go

    Holy dammit, Batman. I started the morning off strumming around on the Hummingbird, then I decided to pick which of my newest original songs I’d work on next. The title track (if I ever decide to produce this album) “Citi-cide.” For a year, I’ve practiced and performed this song live as more of a melancholy…

  • Get this song out of my head!

    I remember all of those patriotic country songs that were released after 9/11. Now, all of those songs sound fantastical. Anyway, here’s a Brook’s & Dunn cover I think will be a HIT!

    Anchored In You

    I just felt like making a little music this morning. It was a nice, chill weekend with the wife watching the world burn. This song makes me think of her when she’s away. So, here ya go, Sam. This one’s for you, boo. This is a Shawn Mullins song from his album Soul’s Core.
