Retro grooves for the new millenium. Pop/rock songs, some ballads, and heartfelt lyrics.

Retro grooves and thoughtful melodies and rhythms, made into soulful Pop/Rock/Blues tunes for the new millenium. This music has a feel reminiscent of a whole lot of stuff you probably haven't heard in a while, but always remember fondly. Don't forget to play it loud.

Story behind the song

We wanted to write a "Christmas Season" song that wasn't a "Christmas" song, if you know what I mean. So here it is.

Lyrics

frost on the edges of my window pane 
the smell of coffee makes me feel right at home 
and the sun's getting up late 
peeking through the mist 
over the slate blue staggered landscape 
of solemn little houses and roadside motels 
on the horizon 
thousands of people 
concealed 
by brick and mortar 
all so near and yet so far 
and yet so near 
the spirit of the season makes new friends of faceless strangers 
and tiny little icicles glisten with drops 
as they melt with the sun's first rays 
while I daydream of the one place 
I'd rather be 

but this is pretty nice 
thank you
