What I Play

I try to post up some music once a month on the blog -- click on the Music category to see stuff I have posted.

I released my first cd back in 1999, entitled After the Flood. It's available via CafePress.com for $14.99. The tracks are mostly done "live in the studio" (meaning, guitar and vocals recorded in one take, live, not edited into perfection from multiple takes) except for a couple of songs where I did guitar separate from vocals. The CD was produced by Stretch Williams and Mat Mitchell, audio guys extraordinaire at ORIGIN, and they both play on the CD, as does Todd McKimmey.

Here you can find some sheet music and lyrics.

Mika is a solo acoustic guitar instrumental.
My Neighborhood is a jazzy shuffle tune, solo acoustic guitar and vocals.
Maybe Free is the opening track on the CD, a blues-rock tune.
Alice is an instrumental piece for acoustic guitar. Tablature and sheet music are included here.
Memorial is another instrumental piece for acoustic guitar. Tablature and sheet music are included here.
