I wrote and recorded this song in 2016. It was intended for a film (that I was ultimately fired from, lol). The song is very easy to play, as I tried to pick the low hanging fruit and not outsmart myself. This was especially important as the score had be in under a deadline.

The opening guitar riff was initially only played once or twice in the piece. The music coordinator for the film jumped on a phone call with me, and asked me to come up with a version that used that riff throughout. I thought that was pretty astute. Gosh, that guy is probably more responsible for writing this song than I am!

This song's title "When I Sleep Your, Eyes Close" is derived from Pablo Neruda's poem, Sonnet XVII. The song (and poem) signifies a love that is so pure, unconditional, and natural -- that it feels like an inherent part of oneself. It's how I feel about my wife, and my son. I am them -- they are me.

I'm a massive fan of Hozier, and his performance of "Blood Upon the Snow" has been on my to-do list for a long time. The piece is from the game, God of War Ragnarök; an epic saga that takes players on a heart-wrenching journey through Norse mythology. Hozier's soulful vocals are a perfect match for the theme's haunting, Celtic melody. You can watch a live performance of that piece here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IA7gxqXpV-M

As a solo fingerstyle arrangement, Blood Upon the Snow, sounds sophisticated, but it's fairly easy to play. The piece will be a good opportunity for intermediate guitar players to get into some hammer-ons and trills. All of the chord shapes are basic and easy to play.
