Here's my original a cappella arrangement of the traditional spiritual, "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot". All the voices heard in the recording are my own. Enjoy!

Muddy Water - Aretha Franklin

Here's a little throwback to a song I wrote way back in high school, it's definitely a lot more angsty than the stuff I play nowadays! Admittedly, this is a pretty rough mix and something is UP with my guitar pick-up (and playing, for that matter :P), but I really dig the lyrics and the harmonies I came up with for this tune.  Hope you enjoy!

I've Been Better

Here's another oldie original I wrote in my first year of undergrad. This is the first full recording I did after writing the tune, so there a couple pauses and it's only phone quality so there isn't much in the way of mixing. Regardless, I'll always have a soft spot for this song because I played it with some of my first and closest friends in college my freshman year.
