I’ll start stitching those seams 
just under my skin 
so sure they’ll break away again  I’d lean way out over if this rail will hold
And rise up right into the cold 
Are you out there? 
Bones exposed? 
Upside the mountain. 
Your eyes are closed. 
 Are you diving off the side? 
To test you courage. 
To keep in stride? 
With those birds up high. 

And will you be my Ironwood Tree?
 I hear the sirens out loud 
there’s a fire in your soul 
You could burn us down or light up the way 

With love your heart it might sway 
But never go still 
like the leaves falling from the tree on the hill 
You feel the pressure subside in the blink of an eye 
You can see the world open up and give in  It all calls for a toast off the shores of a coast 
Where the rhythm of the waves keeps you alive 

And will you be my Ironwood Tree?

This is the title track of my 2010 album Vertigo, and contains a lot of heavier progressive elements delivered by 7-string guitars.

Track 6 of the 6-track EP, And so We Danced

Rewind

A quick recording of a fingerstyle guitar arrangement of "Yesterday" by The Beatles.

The Beatles- Yesterday (Solo Guitar)

Here is a new track by Station7. Listen to it here first, before the album drops. Everything was recorded, mixed and mastered in the Underground Attic!

Calypso

Ready is track 6 off my 2019 album, Plethora, and expresses the subject of "Pain" along with track 5. It is written about the hardships of being an artist and the sometimes crippling self-doubt many of us must overcome to pursue our craft. The lyrics are very real to me and I hope the song speaks to you too!

Lyrics:

Isn’t it strange 
How we all count the days?
And we leave all the odd numbers out
And ain’t it weird 
How we all close our ears?
While we widen that space called our mouths

I think it’s odd 
How we are told to try our best but
The praise is reserved for first place
Is it okay that 
Some days I am afraid to
Wear all my thoughts on my face

‘Cause I
I’m ready to try
I’m ready to feel what it’s like
To live life without dimming the lights
I’m ready to learn
What you’re willing to show me
But only if you
Are ready too

And ain’t it weird
How our lives are lead by fear
To our instincts we all pay no mind
If a person’s words
Are weighed for threats they serve
Should I try to be more unkind

It’s funny how we like to 
Marvel at success of those 
Who fashion themselves with mistakes
I’d rather be the one
Who tried and has his life undone
Than bind my desires and wait

‘Cause I
I’m ready to cry
I’m ready to feel what it’s like
To live life without dimming the lights
I’m ready to learn
What you’re willing to show me
But only if you
Are ready too

Plethora

Ready

I have always been fascinated with classical music and arrangements. This is something I composed to show a little of that passion. This tune consists of several different guitar tracks that build melodies and harmonies and a bass track as well.

The Mellow Brick Road

LIVE CUT FROM PRACTICE: This song was written as a tribute to Chris Cornell after he took his life. Originally, the music was slower and more melancholy, but it was changed to be more upbeat. The change was to create a juxtaposition between the lyrics and the music itself to reflect the juxtaposition between deep depression and the high one experiences during a performance. 

The lyrics speak to how no matter what you try, some people can’t escape the gravity that pulls them to their own killing floor.

Anhedonia

LIVE CUT FROM PRACTICE: The music in this song is heavily influenced by Led Zeppelin. It has a bluesy feel with a macabre message. The lyrics describe an environment and that really weigh on the soul, but then the chorus screams in denial that “Nothing’s Wrong.”

Nothing's Wrong

This is my own solo guitar arrangement of a beautiful and familiar tune from Disney's The Little Mermaid. It's performed in video at my Youtube channel in one take, which you can check out below. Hope you dig it!
