An experimental attempt at a Rival Sons type song (Shu-ified, of course...) 

V1
Take me down the mountainside
Soothe my soul and heal my pride
Shelter from the raging storm
Give me hope and keep me warm


CHORUS
I’m chasing after butterflies
And it feels like I’m wasting all my time
Try to find some way to tranquilize
All the useless chatter in my mind 

 V2
Spare me all your double talk
I don’t need your doomsday clock
Throw away your useless toys
That ain’t nothing but background noise

CHORUS

BRIDGE x2
Show me a better day
Take my hand
I just lost my way to the promised land


CHORUS
 

Tranqulize

Our Song
By 1st50 Music

Today I’m thinking back
To all the fun we had
You were brand new and shy
But when you sang oh my…

I’ll take us back to the start, listen and wait for your part, then come in
Don’t give me that, I don’t remember this song, cause I know your singing along, in your head
Its just our song, I sing it sometimes when I want you here

Rewind about a year
With all the music gear
We would just roll the tape
And if there were mistakes

We would go back to the start, listen and wait for our part to join in
It wasn’t like we could do anything wrong, we were just writing our song, back then
Its just our song, I sing it sometimes when I want you here

Whats in side of a song
Keeps it lingering on for so long inside our head
Not just the time or the place
Its just a magical state of mind

And here we are today
You still are looking great
And if you have the time
We could again rewind

We could go back to the start listen and wait for our parts to join in
Im thinking it wouldn’t be terribly wrong, cause it was a fabulous song, back then
Its just our song, I sing sometimes when I want you here

Who am I Kidding

This Moment Now by Kathy H

A jumpy rock tune about stress and its physical manifestations.

An instrumental funk tune inspired by Vulfpeck, particularly the song "Cory Wong". On Cory Wong, Cory Wong himself plays a low theme on his strat while Jack Stratton plays another interlocking higher funk riff on his strat. My tune has two guitars as well (both my own Fender Stratocaster). I attempted to arrange it in a similar way. Enjoy!

Dear SoundCloud friends,

Having surpassed 600 followers on SC I wanted to offer my sincere thanks to those of you who take the few minutes to listen and comment on my musical posts.  It is greatly appreciated!

I'm a songwriter, self taught musician and music lover of all genres.  I listen to a lot of Progressive and Alternative Rock, and explore many of the respective sub-genres.  I also listen to Indie artists, and I think some of the most creative stuff emerges there.  I am knowledgeable on the history of Rock and Pop music, even Jazz and Big Band.  I believe you will hear aspects of all these things in my music.  While I am a big fan of a number of artists, it’s songs that captivate me. The atmosphere created, the stories shared, and the emotions conveyed or evoked.

Songs really matter to me.
