STOP COMMENTING SLURS ON LITTLE DARK AGE !!

AP writes songs recognizing the swiftness of life and highlighting the characters people often avoid or miss, dealing with loss, love, solitude, grief, and frustration with the ongoing waste humans have been making of paradise, producing ballads navigating various genre types as alternative rock, indie folk/acoustic, and alt-country, painting images with words and harmonies familiar to the 20th century American songbook, offering a message of kindness and community, telling stories of being exploited and discarded by the ones we expected to love, begging for forgiveness before we die, aiming towards a more inclusive and healthier society, and hopeful that time hasn’t already passed to correct the world gone wrong. Some songs perhaps suggest succumbing to its darker side. It reminds us of our hidden madness and a kind of minimal movement response to big assaults, as if to reject the grandiose ego of The Spectacle that is modern times. Mercurial, reflective, lyrical, emotional, raw, authentic and brave, these songs deserve, and may require, a deep dive to discover what is so right (and wrong) here in the modern human drama.
