This is an album of songs written and recorded in the Fall of 2021. Each song reflects differences in the way things are, were and will be.

Give Up The Ghost

This is an instrumental rock track that starts out with a guitar only and builds to a full ensemble of guitars, bass and drums. This track is the fifth song from the upcoming concept album "The Lost One." Each track will be released individually and in no order. When completed the full album will be on Bandcamp for FREE DOWNLOAD!!

The Lost One

Dead Reckoning

This is track number two from the instrumental EP "In The Shadows."

In The Shadows

Sunshine

This is the first track from an eight song album about suicide. The character leaves this song as his suicide note.

Goodbye, Me

Someone very successful lost everything because they became too arrogant and trusting of others. They trusted those around them but those around them had only their own selfish interests in mind.

Too Close To The Sun

Life is a crazy thing when we're up against a wall being held down by those that want us to fail.

Everybody has had thoughts of past issues wishing to return and have a redo. This song was written and recorded while I had Covid-19.

Where The Wild Things Are

Some people give up before the finish line.

Running Out Of Time

This song was originally an acoustic track but I decided it was more well rounded with full instrumentation. It is about the rain washing both physically and emotionally.

Washed Away

The Time Of Your Life

To be continued... This album has been in the making for a year and a half. 
It contains 11 compositions, the last of which is the end of the eleventh - the first composition.
At first glance, the compositions on the album are classic examples of so-called "movie soundtracks", but my main goal was to achieve a composite unity by combining the musical currents of different, sometimes radically different epochs, would it be a collaboration of rules laid down by the "Vienna Classical School", Pink Floyd's psychedelic intonation, or other modern currents.
Whether or not this action was justified is already to be assessed by an impartial listener.
All I know for sure is that I continue to experiment ... This is what the title of the album says: to be continued ...

Lillith

My friend Sabil passed away in 2018. He was an amazing musician, husband, father and friend. He taught me many things in life especially how to play the guitar and how to be a reliable man and friend. This song is for him. I'll release the original rock version soon.
