My "World Blues" EP will be released on April 3rd, 2026. This topical 4 song collection is just the tip of the iceberg of music that I'm working on, but stands apart from the other material as my report on the state of the world as I see it.

Wanted to sing something quiet this morning, and "Ring of Fire" came up in conversation recently, so here is me performing it for dogs 🙂

Supposedly, this is Bob Dylan's favorite song of his. I can't say I agree, but I can't disagree either.

This was on my mind this week, as it was for many of us. When I feel things, I write about them, although I wish I didn't have this to write about.
"The Death of Renee Good".

Live at Pino's Open Mic Night 12/10/2025. A fav Springsteen song, "Back In Your Arms". I feel a soul revue coming on!

This one on my my mind, what with the recent movie and the new music release. Played last night at open mic, but did not get vid, so here ya go. It's been a day today to relax and create, it's been a great day.

A little late, but the anniversary of Tom Petty's passing was this week. Still missed. I love so much of his music, this on has always astounded me with its genius simplicity.

Another tired but super fun night at
open mic. Played one of my all time
favorite songs for the very first time. Romeo and Juliet,
in the piano corner.

Imagine, from Pino's Open Mic Night 9-10-2025. Seemed appropriate.

Feeling low-fi today. Overloading the mics on my iphone with Bad Moon Rising.

Happy Thursday! One of many new songs in my queue, I played this one last night at open mic but no video, so here's a live to iphone version.
"Meant To Be".

"I'll Keep It With Mine" is a beautiful Bob Dylan song that I first heard when it came out on Biograph. I fell in love with his vocal performance. Bob's version is strange to play as it has a randomness about the chords and meter that make it difficult to copy.

Kitchen table session today, with Tom Petty's "A Woman in Love (It's Not Me)". Had to do an edit before the last verse because my phone started ringing and totally distracted me.

A bit of my songwriting work today. This is just a demo to hear the bridge idea, but I figured I'd video it just to share. Live in the basement. The original demo has a big arrangement and that's almost surely how the release version will end up.

"Lightning" performed at Pino's 4/9/2025.
You never know who is struggling, so be kind and supportive of the people in your orbit.

Gloomy looking Friday, and the weather affects my mood a lot. Live at the kitchen table. Screwed up the ending, but sorry, you just get one take today. Great Petty doc now on Paramount +, "Heartbreaker's Beach Party". Highly recommend.

What do I do when I have a little time to kill? I find some words I've written and sing them. It's not always a serious writing session. I might have been thinking about the first Dylan record too. Anyway, a little off the cuff Shit Show for you on this snowy evening.

Valentine. I wrote this song about a year ago, and it's been put aside since then. Streaming everywhere now. Please listen, and share.
