a mellow track with harmonies and ambiguity.

"hot philosophy" is about letting go of an old pain, how a coin flip changed my world and a few others.  the rest of the ep is on bandcamp, if'n you are into it.  duffcolors.bandcamp.com

about a metal detection excursion in sand with a camel or two, perhaps.

this is a cover of a song by Dean Moore.  I've been wanting to cover it since I first heard it, given my father served on submarines.

submariner (Dean Moore cover)

Raised around the states, I frequent Indianapolis in my mind especially my busking spot on the canal.  I play violin, guitar, bass, keyboards and drums.  also harmonica and pennywhistle.  singing is my favorite aspect of recording and I love to play out when I can.
as far as a musical philosophy, I suppose I try to say as much as possible with the fewest words possible.  I think Hemingway suggested that.  maybe, it could have been a few writers.
