As much as I love all of the instrumentation and vocal harmonies that characterize the new album (which you can hear in that multilayered form right now on Bandcamp), listening to all of these songs in their original, solo acoustic form yesterday I found personally to be a powerful experience.

I think these 12 songs, heard in this order, provide a fairly raw and I daresay gripping account of the past two months in certain vital corners of planet Earth. I thought I'd present them to you like I heard them, back-to-back, in case you want to try that, too.

My Life as a Protest Singer is an approximately 11-hour audiobook, available exclusively for members of my CSA.  This is the 2nd of 3 Selections from the audiobook, available for anyone to check out.

Here's the podcast rendition of a guided tour of my upcoming album, In Our Dreams, wherein I share with you ten of the songs that will be part of the album, in the order I wrote them, with commentary.

As Israel continues its bombing campaign against Iran and Trump considers whether to join in, I witness intelligent-looking pundits with reasonable-sounding voices discuss matter-of-factly whether dropping massive amounts of bombs on the cradle of civilization again might make the world a more peaceful place this time around.

A song I originally wrote soon after the murder of Dr. George Tiller (May 31st, 2009), which we thought we'd put on the new album (2025). New instrumentation by Chet Gardiner, harmony vocals are Laura Love.

The reality is incomparably worse than the movie.

What's in a tweet?

As much of the US military heads in the direction of Iran, the fighters and bombers and destroyers are all armed with missiles made by 5 American corporations, otherwise known as the War Machine. Powerful remix from Chet and Laura, destined for the upcoming album.

Most recently the daily massacres of starving Palestinian children seeking small packets of flour are being carried out by drones and tanks. Haunting remix from Chet and Laura for the upcoming album.
