I've been tinkering away in the music cave over the last couple of weekends and stumbled onto something pretty damn good. A groove that struts through the verse with plenty of attitude, then, believe it or not, bursts into full-blown…

I wanted to make a Halloween playlist.

But I didn't want to make the usual Halloween playlist.

I wanted to get a little outside the box — to wander beyond the familiar artists and songs and, hopefully, discover a few…

Thinking about my next single release tonight.

I am feeling Lighter Than a Photon.

I plan to release this on or around Thanksgiving Day

Thank You

I wonder how much of life happens in the margins.

The things that weren't on the calendar. The conversations that took a strange turn. The wrong turn that turned out to be the right one. The song you stumbled across…

I wanted to make a fall playlist.

But I didn't want to make the usual fall playlist.

I wanted to get a little outside the box — to wander beyond the familiar artists and songs and, hopefully, discover a few…

A new song hit the 98% mark this weekend.

I’m using this blog to capture a moment in time. The song will be released, but it won’t be for several “migrations.”

What’s it called? I don’t know yet. What’s it…

Have a Good Night folks

Peace Out

Crow is coming.

Next Friday, September 18, I’m releasing a new song.

I’ve been sitting with this one for a while, partly because I wasn’t quite sure what to do with it. Some songs announce themselves pretty clearly. They tell…

Well………………{long, pregnant pause},{drum roll}
 

I have decided to release an album.
 

There. I said it.

This has been bouncing around in my head for a while now. I’ve gone back and forth on it more than once. In fact, I’ve…

One step closer to leaning into a build and release.

Will decide by the end of this week.

Finalized distribution prep for my next song through CD Baby today. I expect to lock it in tomorrow, but I’m still fussing with the art. Here is what I am thinking.

It does have a Halloween-ish ambiance, kinda-sorta. I would…

I’m putting the finishing touches on my next release.

It’s called Crow.

It’s a sound-design smorgasbord—a song that took a few unexpected turns while I was making it.

One of those turns came from a synth sound that…

I have at times ruminated on my music making adventures and wondered why I do it.

Cons

• Takes a great deal of time and effort for relatively low payback financially. (I now hear Jeff Spicoli's voice in Fast Times at…

I have a new song I’m thinking about releasing in about a month. A very Hallo-weeny vibe. Should I wait until closer to Halloween or just go with my usual pacing of song releases?

This one was purely a quick,…

I am closing in on having enough songs to imagine distributing an album and I am back to the same question; is it worth it to release an album or just stick with the singles format? It is a good…

Most worthwhile things don't reveal themselves the first time around.

Some songs grab you immediately.

Others take their time.

That first listen is spent chasing the obvious—the hook, the chorus, the clever lyric. But after a few spins, something shifts.…

Today, a new song clawed its way into existence.

For now, it bears the name
“Knives Out; Feeling My Way.”

We’ll see if the title survives the weathering.
Some songs arrive fully dressed for the world. Others pace the hallway…

Welcome,

I have a new song called Dungarees officially releasing end of this week. You can hear it right now. Thank you for supporting my songwriting journey.

The reference track for my upcoming release—“Sorry I’m Late, I Didn’t Want to…

Dungarees is now officially set to hit the streaming cosmos on 8 MAY 26.

Here is a lyric snippet

"It’s not that I’m hopeless, but hope needs a break,
And the sun hides his face , he’s just tired today…

Most people don’t notice how much of their day is decided before they even wake up—grooves worn deep by habit, not choice. Every so often, I snap the needle on purpose: take the wrong road, strike the wrong chord first…

Final Prep Done. Song launched to distributor for inspection. 8 MAY 26 Boom. It's a celebration

New Single: Dungarees: 8 MAY 26 Release

Three Songs, One Decision

I’ve got a couple of unfinished songs sitting in front of me.
All close. None finished.

Lately I’ve been playing live—mostly cover tunes with friends.
It’s been good. Different energy.
But it’s shifted how I write—slower…

Working on release steps for a new song.

I will be providing more details shortly and hope to release it in a couple of weeks

It is

SHOCKING

Behind the Single: 'heartbeat drops'

• This song's structure and vibe was inspired by a singer/songwriter by the name of Peter Yorn via a song called Different Roads. I used this tune as an arrangement and mix reference. Do a side…

I wish you health, happiness, abundance, and a little extra peace wherever you may find it.

I’m excited to share that I have a a new original single scheduled for release on January 16, 2026. I’m also busy working on…
