Celebrating the 15th anniversary of my high school band Midsummer Drive's one and only EP!  The recordings are super rough, but I still am proud of the songwriting.

Midsummer Drive EP

A Midsummer Night's Dream

Mostly recorded in a dorm room at Union University in Jackson, TN.

Andy Kelly - Guitar, BGV, Synth

Listening For Signs Of Breathing

Fighting for Hours

Life As a Dream

Cloud and Light

An original song I wrote for my wife.  First song recorded with my new recording setup.

My Only

My cover of Mayonaise off of Smashing Pumpkins' album Siamese Dream.  My goal with this was to stretch my recording abilities by trying to replicate the sound and tones of the original track as much as possible.

Guitars recorded using Amplitube 4.  Drums created using EZDrummer 2.

Mayonaise (Smashing Pumpkins full band cover)

A cover of Hurricane, from Thrice's 2016 album To Be Everywhere Is to Be Nowhere.

Guitars recorded using Amplitube.  Drums created using EZDrummer.

Hurricane (Thrice full band cover)

I wanted to experiment with doing an all synth track (except vocals) and thought it would be fun to cover a Dashboard Confessional tune in that style.

A Plain Morning (Dashboard Confessional synth cover)

This song was originally written and demo'ed in 2006 under my band Uncollected Prose.

A Broken Heart, My Muse

Original song by EVERS (http://www.weareevers.com).  Make sure and check out their album Some Things Never Die, available on their site, as well as on Spotify.

Thanks to the EVERS boys for the original tracks, and to my wife for designing the cover graphic!
