Mystery Mind
Another song that’s been on the shelf for awhile and needed some dusting. I’ve tried to learn or thing or two about thick skin over the years, both as a musician and a person. I think it’s less about having an endurance for people who let you down or try to hurt you, and more […]

Goodbye, Purple Trim House
We all start somewhere. I couldn’t have been luckier as to where I got cut my teeth. Yesterday, Renee Thayer-Allison closed the doors of Eclectic Etcetera Coffee House. I was 18 when I first stepped in there. I introduced myself to Renee, said I had heard people play music here and wondered if I could […]

Peace of Heart
Peace of mind is a pretty often used theme in music (just ask Boston), and my music is no exception. I do realize I have a tendency to be an over thinker, and over thinking led me to thinking that I might think too much to get lasting peace of mind. I’m worrier and a […]

The Storm is Blowing Over
(I’m a touch under the weather in this video. Sorry that the vocal quality is lacking, and sorry for making excuses.) This song was for someone going through a time we’ve all gone through and that we’ll go through again. Futility sure can be scary. There are days when it feels like everything you’re […]

The World Weeps for You
Molly Stanton died in March of 2009 in a car accident. She was 22. I had only met her once; she was the friend of some friends. She was very courteous when I met her. Molly wasn’t the first person I had met that had died, not even the first person I knew who died […]

Bright Lights Baby
Like the new background? This is a newer song, though it’s about someone who’s in my life for several years now. Sometimes it takes that long to find the right words to for who someone is in your life. Especially if its a special somebody. The word play was a lot of fun in writing […]

NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert
Yeah, I listen to NPR. Saturday Matinee is my jam. Car Talk re-runs, The Dinner Party Download, This American Life (when it’s not too depressing), Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me, pretty much everything is good. Anyway, they’re doing a contest! All sorts of NPR programs play music, talk about music, have musicians on, so why not […]

Dull Razors
I wrote “Dull Razors” around the time the Occupy Wall Street movement was happening. I knew a handful of people who had been traveling to the city to be part of the movement, but the appeal was lost on me. I understood the desire for economic reform and want for justice against the 1%, […]
