Some have called this song "a battle cry for the automotive industry". Others have said it's probably about this girl I met one weekend who was in town from Canada that I really liked but that didn't like me. It's the first one.

Go on back to where your from
Calgary or Kingdom Come
Though I’d like to see you again

Ring up your parliament
I’ll try the government
I’m sure something can be arranged

I’ll bribe the aristocracy
Topple a bureaucracy
Or maybe you could just meet me in Detroit

Oppressed peoples I will liberate
Appoint myself a head of state
For you trouble is nothing of the sort

Or maybe you could just meet me in Detroit

Go on back to where your from
Leaving me a trail of crumbs
Oh I’d like see you again

Even though you passed me by
The tone of your reply
Is maybe you are as I suspect

I’ll bribe the aristocracy
Topple a bureaucracy
Or maybe you could just meet me in Detroit

Red tape is no concern of mine
I’ll cut to the front of every line
For you trouble is nothing of the sort

Or maybe you could just meet me in Detroit

I’ll bribe the aristocracy
Topple a bureaucracy
Or maybe you could just meet me in Detroit

With sweeter lines than Cyrano
Outside your bedroom window
For you trouble is nothing of the sort

Oh Canada...Meet Me In Detroit

Radio Mind

So tell the world whats stopping you 
From doing anything you please
And tell the court who’s robbing who
Who’s hiding in the trees

Atop these armored elephants
Marching to a half time feel
Pushing mountains, piercing hearts
True form is revealed
Fall out is finally still
and I’m warm

The ocean calls you home
Lost to the deep
Washed ashore in avalon
Can you remember me
Will your ancient self remember me

Traipsing through the universe
Archons at my heels
They seek this sword and with bloodthirst
They seek the ygddrasil

Can you recall your favorite verse
Summer tongue turned easily
Though once heard as a curse
In truth a humble plea
Sometimes as a key
To go home

CHORUS



Remember Me

Run and Hide

*recorded on a Tascam DP-008EX digital 8-Track

I don’t wanna be alone tonight, so I’m calling you
and were crawling through
Years of decay

Running into walls and reaching for lights that just aren’t there
Cause you got scared
and we couldn’t stay

A couple troublemakers
cold hearted illness fakers
out of touch and getting old 
I struggle with letting go

Do you remember swimmin in the neighbors pool
Alone with me
We drove a stolen I rock Z
Fit to be tied

We could start a fire just watch it burn
then drive away
A gravel spray unlocks the door

Performing my original song Echoes live at Cafe Coco in Nashville Tuesday night.

Echoes (Live at Cafe Coco)

Just a simple folk song I wrote standing line to play open mics in Nashville. Recorded 3/17/16

Holy waters wash over me
break away all that I don’t need
leaving me with nothing more
than the love I came here for

Oh you’ve to turn it up gotta
turn it up for me I guess
Oh you’ve got to turn it up for

Holy Ghosts that pass through these walls
one by one we’ll see them all
leaving lines and fingerprints
burning questions on our lips

Oh you’ve to turn it up gotta
turn it up for me I guess
Oh you’ve got to turn it up for

Well it isn’t for money
it isn’t for greed
it’s when all that you are
is all that you need

Oh you’ve to turn it up gotta
turn it up for me I guess
Oh you’ve got to turn it up for

Oh you’ve to turn it up gotta
turn it up for me I guess
Oh you’ve got to turn it up for

Turn It Up

Nashville based by way of Southern IN, Dax has been trudging quietly along the ups and downs of an independent career in the music business for most of his life.

His newest and as of yet untitled album, is the result of a series of serendipitous events which began with his decision to relocate to Nashville in the summer of 2010.

With the help of avid supporter and entrepreneur Denver Cavins of Inertia Media, Dax was finally able to record in a world-class setting with an equally talented, yet, up and coming producer named Grant Craig.

Slated for release in 2015, the album has already been licensed by Nascar as well as various cable networks including A&E, Bravo, Discovery, VH1, MTV, Oxygen.

Dax was 1 of only 100 artists hand picked to participate in a new film/tv licensing program from Reverb Nation called The Reverb Room.

The sound is as acoustic as it is electric, introspective and dark, lyrical and poetic, original, yet wholly accessible.

"It's a marvelous album, superb songwriting, performances and production. If you like bands with an Americana slant, then you will love this. It flows along very nicely"
-Nicky Baldrian, Fireworks Magazine UK
