    Next Steps

    What a wild rush. I’ve been working on so many things in the past month that it’s a literal whirlwind of musical mess.

    My weekly releases are well underway. So far they’re scheduled all the way out into June at this point. Hard to imagine based on the number of years I’ve been in this journey. Once upon a time you spent time creating a full album. Spent even more time working on the marketing, the release, a tour, etc. Now it’s more like constant creation. Which is fuckin hard.

    The largest recent change has been the website. I had roughly 95% of it done when I wrote the last update. As of Monday night 2025/03/10, I got another major bit solved. That bit… being able to load lyrics and song information with a click on the title on any music page.

    Places like Genius, MusixMatch or Lyricfind are awesome resources and I do attempt to keep my lyrics passed along to them. However, what better place to get the actual words I sang on something than right here on my website.

    Beyond the lyrics, for those nerds like myself, there is a plethora of additional information for my songs (not necessarily for any covers I may have released). You can find running time, copyright information, ISRCs, ISWCs, registration codes, etc. It’s the super geeky shit.

    On the underside of the music pages there’s going to be a rotating video background. It’s harder to see on a phone which is fine because it’s probably a bit more distracting than it should be. However, on a desktop or possibly an iPad you get the fuller experience. I will be changing them fairly regularly going forward.

    Still working on the storefront / shop area, but it is in working order.

    Musically speaking, I’m about to be getting full on into 360RA mixes. Those along with all the Dolby mixes I’ve finished will be releasing in the future. Likely towards the end of the year. Immersive music is really damn cool and starting to get really good even for headphones.

    More good things coming…

  • G League Lyric Video

    G League Lyric Video

    Continuing with the ongoing effort to catch up with content that I’ve previously released as music only. I’ve got a new lyric video releasing today. This one is for people who are fans of the recently renamed basketball league that is now known as the G League. If you’re not familiar with the G League, it’s the minor league of the NBA. As of 2019 it has expanded to a bunch of new markets. Added a slew of new teams and even renamed some of the old teams.

    Here’s the lyric video in all of it’s glory:

    G LeagueEnjoy, share, and watch multiple times.

    p.s. this was released as the title track on all the G League mixes. Hear it here.

  • I Covered Sober By Tool See The Video

    I Covered Sober By Tool See The Video

    A little while ago on Twitter I put it out there asking Tweeps what song they’d like to see me do a cover of. One of the requests that came in was for Tool’s Sober. I thought – hey, that’s an interesting one if I do it with acoustic guitars and a single vocal. I found some time to put a day aside to learn the song, come up with a couple of guitar parts that would work acoustically. I recorded it. Sang it. I put it down for a couple of weeks as I was busy shooting video and recording some of my tunes. A few days ago while taking a little vacation to visit my sister, I spent a couple of hours shooting some video for the cover song. I give you:

    Sober

    YouTube player

    There’s a shadow just behind me,
    Shrouding every step I take,
    Making every promise empty,
    Pointing every finger at me.
    Waiting like a stalking butler
    Who upon the finger rests.
    Murder now the path of “must we”
    Just because the son has come.

    Jesus, won’t you fucking whistle
    Something but the past is done?
    Jesus, won’t you fucking whistle
    Something but the past is done?

    Why can’t we not be sober?
    I just want to start this over.
    Why can’t we drink forever.
    I just want to start this over.

    I am just a worthless liar.
    I am just an imbecile.
    I will only complicate you.
    Trust in me and fall as well.
    I will find a center in you.
    I will chew it up and leave,
    I will work to elevate you
    Just enough to bring you down.

    Mother Mary won’t you whisper
    Something but the past is done.
    Mother Mary won’t you whisper
    Something but the past is done.

    Why can’t we not be sober?
    Just want to start this over.
    Why can’t we sleep forever.
    I just want to start this over.

    I am just a worthless liar.
    I am just an imbecile.
    I will only complicate you.
    Trust in me and fall as well.
    I will find a center in you.
    I will chew it up and leave,
    Trust me [x5]

    Why can’t we not be sober?
    Just want to start things over.
    Why can’t we sleep forever.
    I just want to start this over.

    I want what I want [x4]
