Artist picture
Acoustic rock and folk rock with country, blues, and American Songbook influences.
Formerly "Dr. C and the Stratocats," I'm now on a solo career as "Dr. C," but I had to change my stage name here because someone else had already claimed it. My music strives for melody above all else; I strive to make my songs memorable, so you can whistle a tune immediately. I see melody as the element most lacking in contemporaryr music. I love Sinatra and the Beatles, Gordon Lightfoot, Paul Simon, anyone who can write a memorable "tune."

Lyrics
The sun is going down It's not a place to go Unless you pack all our troubles in a rocket ship And head for the burning glow. Your spaceship orbits the planet Until you can escape The pull of earth's dying gravity And launch out into space. The walls grow hotter and hotter Until your hair bursts in flame You wonder why you were chosen To bear earth's blame The sun is rising up now The angels do proclaim “You have ascended to the silver throne You've won the human game.” Your glorified spirit Through unknown realms shall roam Inhabiting all matter Because you gave your own The sun is going down The world's a better place Because another human became the Christ And dwells in a state of grace. Her glorified spirit Through untold realms shall roam Inhabiting all matter Because she gave her own
