Retired musician .  Just writing a few simple songs about
life and growing old.  Song about my childhood on a
Louisiana delta farm.  Most songs were written and composed by me on my Boss  BR8 Digital Recording Studio.  Hope to complete my first CD soon.  I have a few cover songs also.
 


 I have written new material, just need to record again. Having disabilities makes this struggle all the more difficult. I wish the best for all of us that create. I hope to continue this adventure that only started at the beginning of the lockdowns. Once we are settled I hope to share more of the world of Catpadwick. I do have a YouTube channel that is more personal and has some live performances and meditations. I need help understanding this new digital world.
 Thank you for the past few years.
My next pro is now over. Being on the verge of homelessness and having disabilities makes holding onto SoundCloud impossible at the moment. I'm loosing songs on this page. I will try a more affordable approach from here on out, as far as music production. In a world of baby shark; music has no place it seems anymore. Thanks again for your support the past three years and 56 songs later.

Thanks for visiting my page. All original and traditional tracks are downloadable. God Bless

Wallowing in the warmth of lower mids and melancholic melody.
Recorded, mixed and mastered on a Tascam DP 32 Portastudio using vintage gear gathered over many years.


Take a large bucket. Add a pint of Neil Young, a pinch of Glen Hansard. Wack in a tea spoon of Damien Rice, then an ickle bit of Tom Mcrae. Shove in a hand full of Mike Scott, a heaped table spoon of Neil Finn and a large dollop of Conor J. O'Brien. Mix with a big stick then strain through an old sock. Pour. What you have is a little bit of Mr C.

Hello good people of the cloud.
I play everything in real time and record and master on a Tascam DP 32 Portastudio. Although three of the older songs on here where recorded on a 8 track tape recorder through an old seck analogue desk.
No pc's are used or abused in the process of me music making. I love tactile recording. Switches, faders, pots and buttons. Mouses are for computers and eating cheese. No Mac, Daws or Windows, Midi or overused plugins. And no automated mixing, compromise being a large part of my final sound.

Hope you enjoy some of the music that I make, please feel free to share and comment.

"DIY" rock artist from São Paulo-Brazil. 
Addressing tough and thoughtful subjects, "The Sixth Stone" music sounds like Grunge, Indie, Metal and Hard Rock, mixed all together in a Classic Rock vibe... or something like that. :)
Have a listen and draw your conclusions.
