Hittin' that slow-down phase of life as a parent and seeing I have a little time to return to my core-interest: music. Taking my experiences, lyrics and music & putting them into song using a mix of live recording/DAW work and AI vocal processing/filtering

That Fool Lyrics Video

I made another lyric video for one of my songs. They don't get any traction or listeners but I DO enjoy experimenting with different formats to try. This one is just a video-capture of my DAW on the mastering cycle with lyrics over top. Boring? Interesting visual? Meh?

That's what keeps an artist/writer/musician creating. Everyone WANTS to get that Big Deal for their work but we all know that is The Dream. The reality is that we just want to have our work connect with SOMEONE and maybe even matter a little.

I just dropped this track on my Soundcloud account. It is a little bit of a departure from my country-rock leaning catalog, pulling a little more into the alt-rock vibe, but it was the genre that fit the song the best. Listen to I Did It First on #SoundCloud

May Peace, Love, Compassion and Gentleness be the language you speak and the blessing you receive on this Christmas Eve/Christmas Day and a safe travel to all who are enroute, one direction or another. And for those who don't celebrate?.... the same! Of course.

I had a few of ya (can't see WHO just that it came from BlueSky) come and check it out give it a listen. I just want to thank you, WHOEVER you are. For a miniscule creator like myself, every listen/comment/like has a lasting impact. So thank you. 😊

Funny how songs wait on you.
Heard ‘em my whole life—never really heard ‘em.
Now a line slides past and I’m like… “DAMN!”
Guess the music didn’t change.
I did.
Nighttime’s when the mix speaks truth.
Everything loud steps back.
What’s real stays.

Whenever I am working on a song or even just hashing out lyrics for a potential song... I just keep making passes over what started out as 'basic "crap" of an idea' until the 'crap' starts to fade away and the real gem inside starts to peek through. That's the Work part. The rest is just a discovery

My debut book drops next year!
First in Finnish 🇫🇮 (since I'm a Finn), and, if all goes well, later in English 🇺🇸 (sorry, my English-speaking friends 🫶).
I can't share many details yet, but expect a wild, Douglas Adams–esque sci-fi humor space adventure! 🪐🌌🤖

Born 30 Nov 1955, singer Billy Idol. The name "Billy Idol" was coined due to a chemistry teacher's description of Idol on his school report card as "idle". He has stated that the subject was one that he hated and in which he underachieved. He was the lead singer with Generation X. #BillyIdol

I hope you all had a happy holiday today- whether you celebrate, commemorate or not. Even if it was just a relaxed or slower/day-away from the workplace... I hope you found sated appetites, closeness and comfort with family/friends and a moment to appreciate the blessings and challenges of Life.

Hey I LIKE this one!! It does feel like 'old-school' a bit.
Listen to 'That Fool' on #SoundCloud

A throwback country-rock song built around the kind of music that’s part of the most Classic Country. I wanted to pay my respects to that era’s sound with my own spin on it. Simple chords, I-IV-V bones, a little storytelling.
