I am alive — I guess —
The Branches on my Hand
Are full of Morning Glory —
And at my finger's end —

The Carmine — tingles warm —
And if I hold a Glass
Across my Mouth — it blurs it —
Physician's — proof of Breath —

I am alive — because
I am not in a Room —
The Parlor — Commonly — it is —
So Visitors may come —

And lean — and view it sidewise —
And add "How cold — it grew" —
And "Was it conscious — when it stepped
In Immortality?"

I am alive — because
I do not own a House —
Entitled to myself — precise —
And fitting no one else —

And marked my Girlhood's name —
So Visitors may know
Which Door is mine — and not mistake —
And try another Key —

How good — to be alive!
How infinite — to be
Alive — two-fold — The Birth I had —
And this — besides, in — Thee!

I am alive - I guess

I am alive I guess

I Am Alive I Guess

"Aging rock legend in my mind."

John Laurence is a multi-instrumentalist, composer and singer/songwriter, with a wide range of influences from Heavy Metal to Mahler, Folk to Baroque, with a healthy dose of Blues, Classical and Jazz. Instruments he plays include keyboards, acoustic and electric guitars, bass guitar, ukulele, Godin Merlin, dulcimer, recorders and whistles, and brass including cornet/trumpet, mellophone and trombone.
  
In 2011 he was diagnosed with attention deficit disorder (ADD) which had affected him undetected since childhood. Although he has a PhD and has had two successful careers, he has begun to see life with a whole new perspective. He has always been a musician at heart and is making up for lost time with a new career as a musician and composer. His music is  influenced by blues, jazz, folk, classical and rock. Given his eclectic tastes and creativity, it is not surprising that John's music has evolved in to a World Music style. A new EP has just been released, named "Last Song of the Dove".  Feedback on the album has been encouraging, especially from countries such as Canada, USA, Mexico, Japan, Israel, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. John is now producing a full length album "Takahe Toccata" building on the style of the EP and dedicated to the World's endangered birds.

MUSIC FOR THE THINKING FEW.

(NOTE for RepostEx users: I don't repost AI if I can detect it, and I only repost songs I like or show some level of competence or promise...and they usually don't involve an 808, misogyny, Autotune or singing off key over a prerecorded track...and at my age I'm FAR more interested in quality connections with listeners than going "viral". ALSO: mostly an aging rock/folk/prog/indie guy...can't really judge or really relate to Hip-Hop, Auto-Tune and other more modern styles...sorry.)

John Ludi is a musician/singer-songwriter/cultural relic with a diverse and "arty" array of influences and lyrical interests who was "Indie" before the term even existed. Working outside of the music industry by choice has given Ludi the ability to release songs of a level of lyrical depth that are anathema to the current culture.  Ludi lives off-grid in a yurt in the woods of WI and finds the materialistic priorities of our civilization incredibly wrong and destructive.

I'm an italian music lover living in Spain.
My music is a journey, every new song I create I discover something new about myself. I'd make music even if noone would listen to it. That's why it's a solo project...
I write, record, produce and perform all of my tracks except for drums.
I use no autotune or voice modifiers. 
I use no synths or sampled sounds (except in very rare occasions)

I'm open to collabs of any kind, just hit me up!

I hope you'll enjoy my music

't Hardt is een Nederlandstalige band die al meer dan 25 jaar zelf geschreven muziek speelt.

Songwriting is engaging, enlightening and empowering to Per Ploug. In 2018 he began to express himself in song and lyrics, with themes both personal and universal and drawing on life's many experiences... folk is his main genre. A song is the sum of all its parts, the lyrics, the melody, the orchestration and production, and when those parts all gel together you may well have the basis of a great song.

Per draws inspiration from a great variety of both classic and contemporary songwriters and bands from both sides of the Atlantic, such as Gordon Lightfoot, Tracy Chapman, Genesis, Bruce Springsteen, Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell, Robert Vincent, local heroes include Christy Moore, Emma Langford and Glen Hansard to name a few . Per is originally from Denmark, living in Ireland for over 25 years.

In February 2021 Per found courage to get one of his self-penned songs produced. With the help of Eoin Mulcahy, a part-time music producer, they produced his first ever single Won't Be Lost With You. Hope you will keep an eye out and look forward to hearing what will come next.

Per's biggest dream is to have one of his songs discovered and performed by a well known artist, or to be chosen for sync in a popular TV show or movie.

“I don't remember my dreams too much. I hardly have ever gotten ideas from nighttime dreams. But I love daydreaming and dream logic and the way dreams go” - David Lynch
​
I love to express stories through music and explore the visceral space that surrounds them. Sometimes I’m interested in creating sound collages, or tapestries of sound that are varied in their nature but unified in their aesthetic aim. Other times I surrender to something lyrical. Most of the time, I feel compelled to make sense of the world, which is impossible. But, after some work, which includes frustration, and occasional eureka moments, I find deep meaning and satisfaction in my music, especially as I near the finish line and embark on a collaborative journey with fellow creatives.
