A noisy, abrupt instrumental about making a clean getaway. It's unfinished, uncouth, and probably talks rude to old ladies. Deal with it.
Recorded to my iPhone this morning at 2AM, using Amplitude and iRig.

The Sudden Disappearance of Mr. Muldanado

Instrumental guitar and harmonica folk song.

Harmonica folk

My tribute to one of the finest songs ever crafted. I don't even begin to do justice to this fantastic piece from the '50s. Santo & Johnny were onto something with this amazing song. 

Sleepwalking (Santo & Johnny cover)

A tribute to your favorite good-natured monsters and weekend adventures.

You Wouldn't Believe Me If I Told You (What's Been Living In The Garage)

I recorded this two-track recording, while standing in a bathtub for natural reverb on the rhythm and vocal track. The melody, or solo line has added digital reverb, thanks to the wonders of Amplitube's Fender Twin Reverb package. Such a fantastic app! This is all on ukulele. Please, whether you love or hate my version, check out Mr. Jurado's original version--it's breathtakingly beautiful, and I don't begin to do it justice.

To Choose The Right Ink

This is a work in progress; lyrics, solos, format, etc. will most definitely change. It began with the short instrumental piece that i've posted in the past couple of days, The Sun Even Sets On A Good Man,  and evolved into this.

I Used To Believe In Ghosts (the Sun Even Sets On A Good Man) [WORK IN PROGRESS]

You keep trying to tell me
I'm not a reliable litmus
for what should and shouldn't be offensive, 
Operating from a place of privilege.

I found the pages full of notes, 
And I wish that I could say that it
was someone else's jokes.
No harm was meant
behind the fucked up things I said and wrote, 
But words can hurt nonetheless
 
[bridge]
a middle class white kid
in the heart of Oklahoma, 
(and no one called me out)
No one called me out, 
but still I should have known, 
(this is all on me)
And I'm sorry for the hurt I may have caused, 
I wish that I could take it all back

Privilege (demo, work in progress)

A really trashy-sounding recording of an idea that hasn't developed into anything yet.

Arthur (Farewell Crutchy)

This is my less-than-acceptable tribute to my favorite band, Starflyer 59. I actually had never played this song until a few minutes before recording. It seemed like a fun cover to do, so i gave it a shot. The original did not have harmonica--it was an addition of my own, though I'm not real jazzed about the results. It was, after all, impromptu, so I plan on reworking it and making a new recording that does the song a little more justice.

My cover is based on the "In Love Version", from the EP, "She's the Queen", instead of the original on Silver.

Tomorrow It Won't Be The Same

This is a fraction of a song that I was playing on the street today--unfortunately, the recording cuts off, but other than that, it sounds somewhat decent.

Hi everyone, thanks for taking a moment to check out my page. These are mostly undeveloped ideas and rough sketches, so please check back frequently, as I intend on having some better recordings soon. Hope you like what you hear!
