This song is a dirge. Remembering Rwanda. Thanks to those involved with the original first time recording i.e. Jim and Steve. Great musicians with discerning ears. This song compares the animal poachers with the political poachers in Rwanda at the time and likely at present. This was never meant to be or will never be a political or protest statement. Just an observation on humanity and it's departure from what Jehovah intended. The latter verses mention "soon there'll be a sunrise when justice makes a call...trophies for the victims will be mounted on the walls."  God's viewing everything and will cause justice to be done whether it be toward humans (his greatest priority) or his animal creation. No human will escape his eye of judgement whether favorable or unfavorable. 

Distant Drums

A satyrical take on the less than humble who bask in the sunlight of their own pride. Reminds one of the economical downfall because of certain Wall Street issues but I take no political/commercial stance on these matters. I am merely observing the landscape and seeing things through the eyes of an editorial writer. I just happen to express current events through song lyrics and melody. The only active agenda that I promote is God's Kingdom though Christ Jesus (Matt.6:10). 

Captain Humble

This is an historical and symbolical take on where we are in the stream of time. Based on the fall of ancient Babylon by the Medes and Persians. So much symbolism about the false religious elements of this world who consider themselves impregnable..i.e. unable to be conquered and revealed for their pagan ideals and philosophies that have kept the general public in slavery to ideas and rituals that separate them from the only true God, Jehovah. A wake up call in effect. History repeats itself. Read Daniel and Revelation and the song will make more sense. Also, the next time when one of those Jehovah's Witnesses calls at your door ask them about this. That's where I learned about Babylon and wrote a song about it.  

The Writing On The Wall

Original song about a positive future. A song about lifting us above the mire of the present system of things.

New Day

Have some lyrics for this song but no way to record for now. The sentiment and purpose of the song is to express the loneliness felt during a separation whether it be geographical, physical, emotional or otherwise. Still a work in progress.

Verse 1:

I wonder how you've been
And I wonder more each day
Hope the letters that I send
Will reach you in someway 

Verse 2:

I wish the hands of time
Could take us back to then
When love was something new
And let us dance again

Chorus:

'Cause without you there's no life in me
No blood runs through my veins
And it's hard to breath
Smothered by the pain
And I wonder how we made on our own
Will the music keep on playing
Every moment we keep dancing alone




Dancing Alone

Acoustic sound. Song about the last words pending a Father's death that the Father would give to his son. Much more about the circumstance behind it's writing than I can say now. Get to know me and in time I may reveal the details. Not a final master but a raw/progress demo. Aimed at meaningful lyrics and melody.

Younger Son

I have been a voice over artist for quite awhile. Clients have found my voice to be dignified, expressive, intelligent, inviting, luxurious, soothing, trustworthy and authoritative. Let me know what you think. I am always open for critique and suggestions. I can also do several accents i.e. British, Australian and Native American and more. All music beds are original and performed by me.
