  • The Climate the Day Brings
    I worked on this song in the summer of 2022. I wrote the lyrics at the end of June. With not much studio time, I added guitar in the recording sessions. This has more of a metal feel and sounds decent, also with a heavy change of tempo mid-way through the song..

  • Perfect Storm and Breaking Light
    I wrote the lyrics for this first as usual, at the end of May 2022. I added the guitar in the recording sessions in June. This is one of my strong blues rock songs, with a focus on the weather and a metaphor for life.

  • Awake
    These lyrics are written in March 2022. The guitar is fresh, with a few decent solos. I don’t want to offend anyone, but I think this has a punk feel. I enjoy the imagery of waves here and the message to be awake to the world, caring and understanding.

  • Mood of the Day
    The lyrics came to me in March 2022. The guitar quickly followed the lyrics. My studio is at home. Volume is often a concern. This is electric unplugged with almost a jazzy feel?

  • Rock Bottom of Your Giving Heart
    The lyrics for this were written in March 2022. They were originally inspired by a picture of a boat by our old hydro-generator plant and dam. The lyrics developed into meaning about giving all we have for those that need it. The guitar came to me fast, with a great solo at the end.

  • Focus on Connection
    I wrote these lyrics in September 2021. They stuck in my head and quickly the guitar came and was recorded. This is one of my bluesy rock riffs. The lyrics are simple about making and maintaining connection with others.

  • The Mind’s Back Door
    I wrote this song in the early 1990’s, including the guitar riff and lyrics. I performed it at least twice at “The Acoustic Cafe” at the university pub. This is one of the only songs that I was able to play with my own lyrics. The lyrics are about consciousness and the mind.

  • Achieve Every Breath
    I wrote these lyrics in November 2021. The guitar happened fast, once I started singing to it. The vocals were raw, and without rehearsal. They improve with time. This is about optimism and working towards our achievements, including peace and love.

  • Something in Between
    This song as played here was originally recorded on January 6, 2022. The lyrics are from the early 90’s or late 80’s. The guitar came together in recording in very few takes. The song is about spirituality and makes an allusion to N.I.B. by Black Sabbath. I love the guitar work. The song is inspired.

  • Life Rocks
    This song as played here was originally recorded on November 16, 2021. The lyrics were written in October 2021. This is a break through song for my guitar, (rhythm and lead) and came together very quickly. The lyrics are self-explanatory. Life and love rock. We have to also work to make that happen and have those feelings, but when they come through, nothing beats them.
