A Zeppelin type blues rock stomper about about a friend that was hooked on heroin, and tried to keep it a secret. But I knew the deal even though he would never admit it. So this song is kind of about my wish for him trying pull thru it. Die to live

Melodic rock with a focus on melody and harmony. Catchy and hooky is my goal.
Well, actually this page features my "solo" stuff. I primarily just write songs at home for the fun of it. And even still, I haven't done much of that recently because I've been busy playing in a local cover band Punch Judy, and raising two awesome boys with my wife. The stuff you will hear here is stuff I've pulled from the archives, of various ideas, riffs, songs, etc that I've messed with. I'm not trying to be the most original guy either. I do it for fun. I was starting to hit my stride when "life" set in, so I'm on hiatus for now. But I plan to get back into it in the next couple years. Lord knows I have the gear to do it. for a guy that doesn't record, I sure have all the tools, software, and plug-ins to do it!

Story behind the song
Lyrics are the last thing to come to me. And many times I end up just writing something that sounds good! Once I get started, the song kinda takes shape based off that. I start with the first couple lines and the subject matter just kinda takes shape from there. I was into a band called Big Wreck at the time, and was messing around with an alt tuning when this song came about. I'm not even sure what the tuning is now, but it was really fun to play.
Lyrics
It's getting crowded now in your head. Too late to worry 'bout those things that you said. Down to the minute you're holding your breath. Because I know. Over under, place your bets. No time to turn around you ain't finished yet. One day realize your table has turned. Because I know. Cast away your judgement day. Now you can see that it's keeping you down. Die to live another way. So hold on. When you know (you're looking for truth). When you see (nothing left in you). Can't escape (you're tied to the rail). Can't keep what you take away. Solo Chorus
