Netflix and Cold Outside

A…rendition of the classic Henry Mancini tune. I came up with this idea before I started searching and found other versions.

The Punk Panther

It’s prom night, or maybe homecoming. Outside the school building, two friends struggle to understand the next stage of their relationship. A third student waits in the wings to swoop in and save the night.

Outside the Prom

Is it 2023, or 1986? I wrote this retro-inspired short to accompany an uplifting video to get us out of the past 3 years and into a hopeful 2023.

Anthem for 2023

Mellow, cheerful, syncopated, it kind of rolls along. A synth lead and electric guitar take turns with lead parts.

By Now

Traditional Winter holiday songs, re-imagined as if they were played by the Grateful Dead.

Auld Lang Syne

Deck The Halls

Jingle Bells

Jolly Old Saint Nicholas

This is the first song I am working up on my new* Alkire Eharp 10-string non-pedal steel guitar. I am starting with slow numbers to practice the feel of the bar, the volume pedal, and the many different grips required to get the desired chord voicings.

I’ve had this guitar a week, and I am loving it.

I made a quick preset in the Quad Cortex that uses a Fender Deluxe Reverb as the amplifier, with lots of lush reverb because it sounds so good with steel guitar.
