Beautiful guitar... Great melody and cool lyrics. Also, an especially fine vocal performance, James. Well done!

Really good music to those lyrics James. I also really liked how it grew in intensity when the vocal jumped an octave at the bridge. Sweet!

Loving the guitar and the truth of the road even more ... I was holding my breath! 😢🤷🏼‍♂️💔👏🚙

Your ability to showcase a song with the same simple nylon guitar and vocal track week after week just amazes me. It's like always dressing in black - classic and timeless and a perfect canvas to imagine a bigger band setting while powerfully holding its own. Great collaboration, stunning performance!

Wow incredible! I wont even have words to give it justice, through and through it’s tremendous!

Rocking those nylons, baby - I love the way you always put your sweet guitar in the service of the song :) - voice sounding great here too

Man, sometimes I'd love a GoPro / JTR's-eye-view video of you playing

"Run Down" (#439, 210219)

 * Words by Jerry Frohlich, music by James Tristan Redding * 

Another town another show
Didn't seem that long ago
A one night stand and off I go

Run down I hit the road again

Haunted by the highway sound
I close my eyes the lights go down

Echos distant in my mind
The days are long and the nights are longer
As I stare out the darkened window

Run down I hit the road hit again

I feel the eyes of all the fans
They all watch me as I stand
On stage again

And as we drive away
I feel so empty
But left them wanting more

Run down I hit the road again
The band, my friends

Run down I hit the road again
Yeah rock the night away

Run down I hit the road again
Another town another show

Run down I hit the road again
