Wave- Mabin & Mason

My daughter has always slept in our bed. Now that she is 6 (almost 7), I am trying to get her to sleep in her own room, but my wife still lets her sleep with us. I end up moving to the couch to avoid being kicked and crowded all night.

LYRICS:

Morning is here and you know where I am
Sofa imprint in the shape of a man

Your mama don't want me there
She sent me down the stairs
Your mama just wants you
For me there is no room

Too crowded in my bed
Nowhere to lay my head
I'm hanging by a thread

I know one day I'm gonna miss these times
No sleep for days am I losing my mind

Your mama don't want me there
She sent me down the stairs
Your mama just wants you
For me there is no room

Too crowded in my bed
Nowhere to lay my head
I'm hanging by a thread
Too crowded in my bed
Too crowded in my bed

Too Crowded In My Bed

L'envie #106:: Chances With Wolves

From the sweet, soulful sounds that harken back to the greats of yesteryear, to the raw, cutting-edge sounds of his modern contemporaries, Mason Hargrove is always capable of dialing in just the right amount of “style” from his guitar. Whether sitting in the corner of a coffee-house or dodging the lights of a main concert stage, he is always the consummate professional. For pure, instrumental prowess and originality, look no further.
The headphones placed by his parents around his mother’s womb blasting Beatles music must have had a lasting impression. The Tacoma, WA native first started playing guitar after hearing the sounds of the early 90’s emanating from Seattle. Armed with a few classic rock riffs learned from his father, he enrolled in the high school jazz band and began taking private lessons. His peers and elder statesmen in the Northwest area quickly took him under their wings, exposing him to rhythm and blues, jazz, funk, hip-hop and soul music, as well as the grittiness of “real-life” gigging, alongside the formal training he received from college and musical theatre experience.
Now with almost 30 years playing experience behind him, Hargrove has developed a vocabulary and sound uniquely his own, yet still accessible to everyone. He has appeared as a sideman for many local artists, both live and in the recording studio. For the past 20 years he has been active in the role of music education as well, privately offering guitar and bass lessons, featuring custom-tailored curriculum for each individual student, ranging from young children just starting out to adults hoping to realize their musical potential.
