This one I wrote for a really dear friend of mine Steven brewer. He’s a chef and he’s always been one of the hardest workers I’ve ever known in my life. He’s resilient and kind but also a bad ass. So I wanted to write him a song.

Sharper Knives

Soulful song I wrote for a friend and anyone else in the world feeling down. Hey — We all kinda suck sometimes. You’re not alone.

Estep Blues

About the song: basically, I’m a mess. day and night, but when I can’t sleep, can’t hide my wild side and all bets are off.. 

100% I have totaled every car I’ve ever owned… would go out in the middle of the night in college and tag buildings like I was Banksy (but bad at it). something about the sun going downthat makes me want to break up a bar fight or commit a crime. 🤷‍♀️￼

Lyrics:

In the evening, silence screaming at me, to 
“go ahead lose control, just let that bad girl go.”
It’s an Unsettling feeling.

I’m crashing cars like the slow and serious 
God save my soul, girl. what have you done? (ohh)
(Fun fun fun) No, no, no

I’ve have to it to here with this fence post
Can’t hold it all together on its own (own)
Where’s your balanace when it’s windy? 
And now the sun is setting 
When it’s gone, oh it’s on 

Now it’s me against the nighttime 
Just hold on til the sunrise 
It’s like slipping into the electric side
Then never dance again for the rest of your life (life)
 
It’s your typical middle school mean girl vibe 
Hoping I wouldn’t have it in me to fight. 
before then, you’d probably be right…

ME vs. THE NIGHT

Piano and voice cover of ‘carry on my wayward son’ (kansas). Dedicated to my little rascal who’s turning TWO 😅 how time flies! He’s always making me laugh, and laughing at all my dumb jokes, so Cam - this one’s for you bud.

(COVER) Carry On, My Wayward Son

time stands still

Out on the back porch I saw colors I couldn’t explain
Mean, red heavens stirring up hurricanes
The wind cried Mary - telling us who to blame 
The sky is black and blue from bruising up our names
 
Don’t mean to confuse you, But we don’t want to lose you
we’ll all turn back into stars one day
Let me introduce you, to the two men in hologram jumpsuits
they’ve come to take us away

My curiosities are causing quite a fuss. 
Did we go down the rabbit hole? Or did it swallow us?
Brainwaves like tides sweeping us off our feet
wrinkling the time away - Fighting the unraveling 

I don’t think you can get PTSD 
from watching the war at home on tv

Hologram Jumpsuits

Lyrics:

Felt like forever waiting in line
For the mouse trap, state fair, the year was ’95
Wish I could tell myself & go back in time
say ‘girl, the best things are worth the wait & you’ll look back and smile’

And I know forever's just a state of mind
mmhmm I hear it all the time

Because every song I hear on the radio is about you
So I wrote another one
Because every song I hear on the radio is about you
This is just another one 

I know you, and you alone, were meant for me
I know you, and you alone, were meant for me


Forgot their faces, babe. What other guys?
You dance like that, and man I lose my mine
I don’t own you boy, but you are mine
Even when Adele calls you a hundred thousand times

Because every song I hear on the radio is about you
So I wrote another one
Because every song I hear on the radio is about you
This is just another one 

I know you, and you alone, were meant for me
I know you, and you alone, were meant for me

Because every song I hear on the radio is about you
So I wrote another one

Mouse Trap

Wrote this song for my best friend’s daughter, Kirra Josephine. 🎼🥰 started writing it before she was born and finished it with my band Garden Party in early 2020

More like pop-rock. But that's not a genre on here?

‘KirraJo‘ [Garden Party] Austin, Tx

Influences: Juice Newton, Carole King, Linda Ronstadt, Stevie Nicks, ABBA, Madonna (the old stuff) & Selena (R.I.P.), Lil Wayne, Harry Nilsson, The Supremes, The Scropions

I began writing music on guitar and piano and performing my original music at gigs all around Austin, Texas at 15 years old. 

Went on to study music in college and graduated in 2013 with a Bachelor of Musoc degree in vocal performance. I am a classically trained Soprano singer, but love singing in several different styles so after graduation I came back to Austin and joined my first band: Shotgun Civics: https://on.soundcloud.com/qEBixdUK2ngjpSs56

I went on to join The Soapboxers

In 2018, I started my passion project and the band Garden Party was formed around my original music, a few of which are the songs I’ve chosen to release here on SoundCloud.
