All of the songs we play are my favorite songs for all time and Hank's Cadillac is the perfect band for me. Tom Griffin on bass and vocals, and Dan Berens on dr
I'm a songwriter who also plays in a great country band. I'm proud of the fact that the songs we play are not the dorky top 40 songs on FM stations. I sing, play guitar, and harmonica, Tom Griffin on vocals and bass, and Dan Berens on drums and laugh tracks. We're lucky to know some real good photographers; Thanks to Dan Hogle and Randy (Damn, what's his last name).

Story behind the song
I wrote the song about myself and how I used to move around a lot. When you live like that, you have to learn to "throw it all away" or life will eat you alive.
Lyrics
I Threw It All Away I can't sleep at night I can't stay awake all day I can't sleep at night I can't stay awake all day I had the world on a string And I threw it all away I had everything I wanted And then I wanted a change I had everything I wanted And then I wanted a change I didn't give it much thought I just threw it all away I threw it all away, I just threw it all away It got kind of old, felt like time for a change Nobody said please stay and it's a terrible shame Seemed like the good times were gone So I threw it all away Don't look back don't look back Over your shoulder at memories that you've had Don't look back don't look back It's gone and there's no future in the past It's nobody's fault Yeah there's no one to blame It's nobody's fault Yeah there's no one to blame I didn't give it much thought I just threw it all away
