about

Songwriting, for me, is about channeling. Getting ideas out fast. If I have to work on the basic structure of a song too long, for me, it's something I discard. That doesn't mean I defecate genius, it just means I like to produce a lot of ideas quickly. So as with a lot of material on this site, these songs are from Adam Levy's Song Club. Once a week, he would send out a title or lyric, and a bunch of songwriters would upload their song. It really fueled my creativity during a particularly brutal period of my life.

I went from losing my marriage, into an intense and painful rebound, into meeting who would become my wife in a brief period of time. I wrote one song a week for an entire year. This collection features a lot of songs outside my usual comfort zone. "Third Degree" is me writing a Sting ripoff and playing with synths, using fire as a metaphor for heartache. The songs move through more and more heartache until I decide to "Move On" after which I write a ridiculous country song about redneck cougars, before ending with three of the first songs I wrote for my wife, Morgan.

Ah life....

As always, the production value of a demo ranges from the crude to the semi-professional. But I like the crude. It's my credo. Crudo? Anyway...
