I grew up on the North Shore of the island of O'ahu listening to Bob Marley.  Now I live on the East Coast of the U.S. and miss my home, so I felt like recording a familiar tune from Bob.

First episode of the Marc Allred Podcast, discussing songwriting tips with Ry Bradley.  

Ry recommends focusing on 1) songwriting form, 2) making the chorus feel like a lift, and 3) save your poetic/metaphoric lyrics.

Marc Allred Podcast - Songwriting With Ry Bradley

When you have kids, you can't wait to see the great things they're going to do in life; you can't wait to see the best in them.

Marc Allred - Can't Wait

Marc Allred - Can't Wait (ft. Cubworld)

When I lived in Buenos Aires, Argentina I wrote this song.  It's always felt like a kind of lullaby and when my wife and I were "homeless" for a short time early in our marriage I would often play this song for her to help her sleep.  

At home today I had the mics set up in the basement doing some work, so I decided to do a quick demo of my old Lullaby.  The picture to the left is of the cracked guitar I wrote this song on in Argentina and the same one I recorded it on today.

Please enjoy a free copy of this song.  Free kine is da best kine.
