Work

“Second Cup, Second Meeting (10 A.M. Blues)” is a sarcastic, mid-tempo blues-rock groan-along about the soul-crushing reality of Monday mornings in corporate life.

It’s the musical equivalent of staring at a Zoom grid while your coffee goes cold: half-asleep verses, a chorus that feels like a collective office sigh, and just enough gritty guitar to keep you from actually falling asleep in the middle of your 10 a.m. stand-up.

Perfect for anyone who’s ever achieved absolutely nothing before lunch yet still feels heroically caffeinated.

Second Cup, Second Meeting (10 A.M. Blues)

A tongue-in-cheek, sleazy blues-rock anthem about the modern work-from-home warrior who’s burned out at his desk past 5 PM. Fueled by whiskey and his wife’s shameless (and highly effective) “motivational flashes,” he powers through the final grind with a grin. It’s equal parts horny, proud, and proudly un-politically-correct; the spiritual lovechild of ZZ Top and a late-night Reddit confession.

After 5PM Grind

A tongue-in-cheek (not really) folk-pop anthem that celebrates sticking with PHP and Laravel in a world obsessed with React and Node.js. With witty verses and a warm, stomping chorus, it proudly defends rapid CRUD apps, cheap hosting, and sleeping well at night while the JavaScript crowd wrestles with hydration errors and skyrocketing Vercel bills. Equal parts love letter to Laravel and playful roast of the ever-churning JS ecosystem.
