Song 3 - Wild World

Wild Bills dog chained up outside, the creaky furnace, and the passing cars all lent a hand in recording this song.  The lyrics were inspired by sitting inside and feeling lazy.  Then drinking a few cups of coffee and realizing how much i should be doing with my life that i'm not.  I'm not sure where the 90's grungy guitar solo came from.  Probably all the Nirvana youtube videos caleb has been watching when he comes to my house. Winter is still cold.  And the cracks in the walls still need a second coat of mud.  But its March.  Spring training has begun, indoor seeds are starting to grow, and i think i might play a few games of racket ball tommorrow.

Song 2 - Lady on the Bricks

This song began by clicking some drum sticks together and then running the track through a delay pedal.  Everything else sort of fell into place.   My pal caleb came down one day and recorded the drum tracks.

Song 1 - eff getting old (so long cowboy mike)

The goal is to record and post a new song every week (probably on monday or tuesday).  I'll be posting other things during the week as well. Here is the first song. Inspired by shitty cold weather, birthdays, and cowboy mike.  The picture is my great grandpa john stash.  He has always intrigued me.  An arthritic pool shark, a fan of baseball, and apparently he rode horses. On the back of the photo it says "the only cowboy with white socks".  enjoy.
