The track that started it all, the first recorded Counsellor song and the one that set the tone for the EP. Drums, farfisa, and vocals tracked live, no click, no edits. The guitar solo is heavily indebted to Sonic Youth. From Stepfather's the Counsellor EP available now at your local digital music outlet.

Another number from the Gods of Macho. This is a real barn burner, pedal to the metal all the way through.

The Last of Freedom is the slow jam off of Optigone's debut album Anthropocene. Perfect for rainy grey days and cloud watching. Available digitally on Spotify, the iTunes store, and cdBaby. 
Optigone is my latest project - I produced and played multiple instruments on it and it was created in collaboration with Mark Nowak on vocals, Nick Bohensky on keys and  guitars, and Jeff Bridi on bass and everyone contributing songwriting. Look out for live shows at some point in the future.
