THE VIDEO (above) is the debut of a song that was
written two days earlier for friends who were turning,
well ... "older".
(Thanks, Roxanne, for the spur-of-the-moment performance.
And the inspiration ;-))
ALL THE OTHER TUNES have a broad range of production values -
from studio work, to the raw energy of live performances on
an upright Heintzman piano back in the days of killer tape hiss.
IF YOU'RE A LYRIC FAN, click on the "full" or "full song info" link
and play the songs from there. That way you can read the
lyrics at the bottom of the page as the song plays.
I am guilty of all the words, music, arrangements, production,
and male vocals.
Fortunately, for both you AND me, friends handled
the female vocals. (Thanks Leanne, Bodra, & Dianne!)
See ya out there!

Why this name?
I was gonna call me "Sting" but somebody told me
it had already been taken. Never heard of him. You?

Do you play live?
Sure, I perform live. Just give me a minute to get these bagpipes
warmed up ... hey, wait ... where are you going??

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Internet? What's the internet?
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
No. I would much rather die in bitter obscurity than
take a chance that huge amounts of cash and marketing
expertise could change my life for the better.
(Ashleigh Brilliant once said, "All I ask for is a chance
to prove that money can't make me happy.")

Band History:
It all started many years ago on a dark and stormy night
when my parents had put my older brothers to bed and
momentarily forgot how exhausting it was to raise TWO sons,
let alone three ...

in any particular genre.

Bare Naked Ladies, Lyle Lovett,

Favorite spot?
Paragliding at 6,000 feet over Pokhara, Nepal ...
25,000 foot peaks on the horizon ...
ten massive eagles circling in a thermal with me ...
ahhh ...
