I guess we're just supposed to go on about our day like people aren't threatening entire civilizations
Easter is just a made up holiday perpetuated by big egg
Sometimes you just gotta hit the diner for breakfast and play your little puzzles
This song is a hex and a prayer #music
As a 46 year old musician and songwriter the last 8 years have been crazy prolific. By my last count I’ve written 102 songs and I feel like I’m getting better and better! If you’re curious check my stuff out here. Everything fully written/recorded/performed by yours truly. strangemagic.bandcamp.com
No thanks
“Someday You’ll Fade” - A somewhat recent song I wrote when I found myself overwhelmed by just how ugly things seem be while trying to address the ugliest among us. I don’t like these interesting times
Got 10 very fine rough demos of new songs that I can’t wait to record for real. DM if you’re curious and I’ll send a listen link.
There’s a street in Abq that will need renaming

Is it possible mercury is in retrograde just for me? That’s how today feels.
We're good.
Of course, I’m happy if anyone hears of likes any of it, but honestly, I’m just glad it’s out there.
That how and why I’ve been able to make so much music in the past few years. There’s just a floodgate that’s been opened, and it’s been fun to just make stuff.
It’s like saying “I’ve got so and so song in my head” but only you’ve heard the song and it doesn’t even have a name. Which until recently has been frustrating.
My brain just loves making music. It’s only been very recently, as in the last 10 years or so, that I’ve been able to effectively translate what’s in my head onto a recording. It’s so satisfying and liberating to make these things tangible.
I didn’t bother to learn any instruments until my teens but I remember as a kid being able to quickly pick out and learn lines on the keyboard.
I developed a nervous habit of pounding the now legendarily ubiquitous Amen Break beat on any surface.
I’d always have little parts going relative to one another. A bass line and a melody part and some drums. Always. I’d sometimes mash up popular songs with other songs.
Did I mention that I grew up wearing a hearing aid? That’s maybe a story for another time…
I remember being in grade school just wandering alone in the playground, chattering and chomping my teeth in a manner of making drum beats that only I could hear.
Something I need you to know about me is that for as long as I can remember I’ve been making music in my head.
