In memory of our hero David Bowie, we are offering a free download of this Yonder Mountain  String Band cover from our New Year's Eve shows. 

"David Bowie, the infinitely changeable, fiercely forward-looking songwriter who taught generations of musicians about the power of drama, images and personas, died on Sunday, two days after his 69th birthday."

Time's Changin

I wrote myself an anthem! hahaha! Hopefully it resonates with someone out there...in the song’s opening line I clearly state what I do NOT want to be as a man, and then proclaim what I am attempting to be: an empathetic, moral and 
positive person, always striving to do better and to hopefully be of service to the greater good. Musically, my wife says my style here reminds her of Neil Diamond’s dynamic pop rock with a powerful melody and raucous vocals. I’m cool with that! Towards the end of the song I was channeling ‘The Edge’ (U2’s guitarist) with my electric guitar effects and leads. That felt good!

American Dream

AMERICAN DREAM

This is just my rockin-out way of saying what it’s like to work on ‘figuring it all
out’.. you know, all life’s mysteries and challenges.. big concept, simple approach: all you gotta do is TRY. Musically I’m going for that Bo Diddley, syncopated beat.. like a grungy, pumped-up blues. I had fun stretching out my limited upright bass skills on this tune, even taking a short solo in one section and doing a picking technique on the strings while i slid my fretting fingers down the neck to make a wild, siren sound
