So, a fellow Youtuber who happens to be a great harpist sent out an invitation to create anything out of a chord progression she played on her harp.  I took that as an opportunity to write a song about everyone who leaves negative comments on her channel about her nose ring.  It's called "For The Haters"  This is the first song I've written with a harp in the fray!  Enjoy!

In the off-chance you haven't met already, might I introduce to you the one and only "Big Billy" (the biggest cat, really)
I did my best to keep up. :)

So, yeah.  I made a song out of a cat's ... uhhh...  warblings?  No wait, those are birds - but this is definitely much more than a meow.  In truth, I have no idea what to call it, but I made a song out of it and I love it.  Haha!  Onward and upward, friends!

(PS - I JUST SAW THAT THE KIFFNESS COMMENTED ON MY VIDEO!!!  (he's the guy who inspired the song!!!) )

When a person empties him or herself into music, it's interesting what is created.  I've been poring over this song for over a month.  It's weird, but it's me.  The original title was "Unsafe", but I didn't think that would be as attractive.  I mean, I want to be accurate, but I also want to give people a reason to listen, ya know?

I'd love to know how this song speaks to you.  Please enjoy my latest musical endeavor, "Just For Tonight"

Putting so much effort into this musical journey has its ... serendipities?  I started this song right after my cover of Paul McCartney's, "Wonderful Christmastime", and had no idea what it would be about.  It began as the cloud-like synth, and in a few days, I had the chord progression mapped out.  I then started the lyrics and wrote the first verse expecting it to be a happy song, but as soon as I got to the chorus, I knew something was up.  During the writing of the third verse, it became apparent this song was going to be about death from the angle of "The Best is Yet to Come".  None of it made sense, but at this point, that's kind of the norm for my music writing.  Anyway, a few days later, after the main structure was more or less solidified, I was talking with a good friend of mine who works in the healthcare industry, and without getting into any specifics, he mentioned to me how a lot of people around him are dying and it's affecting him more than usual.  While he's talking, I am somewhat in disbelief as it becomes evident that this song was written for him.  Interesting how things like this happen - and this isn't unique.  Stuff like this has happened dozens of times in the past few years.  Kinda cool, huh?  I love music.

Anyway, please enjoy my latest rock song, "The Best is Yet to Come"

So, this song is (by far) my least favorite Christmas song.  It is horrible in every respect.  If anyone but Paul McCartney released something like this, it would be mocked and buried.  This song makes Friday by Rebecca Black sound like it was made by seasoned professionals.  So, I decided to cover it.  Honestly, no idea how it turned out, but it makes me smile when I hear it.

Please enjoy my rock cover of Paul McCartneys abomination, "Wonderful Christmastime"
