An Instrumental song I wrote. Honestly, I just couldn't think of any words to put to it. 

The Interlude

A really old song I recorded about 8 or so years ago. I always really liked this one. I need to rerecord it. 

She Said

Another really old recording I've had forever. A good friend of mine did the wonderful piano part in this version. I also have a version without the piano

We Are The Same (piano)

A REALLY old song I recorded. One of the first I did on my own while still scared of my voice. It was about how shitty the music scene got here. Years ago, luckily it's alive and well again

The Scene Is Dead

Another older track and another instrumental track I couldn't figure out how to sing to. 

Untitled

I call this the "Stripped" version because it me, my guitar one track and mic. I got a new mic and wanted to test it it out so I set it up in my bathroom and just performed the song, There's nothing great about this version I just liked the stripped down fell to it. Which also gave me an idea of how it would sound live. 

You Know "Stripped Version"

In The Summertime

I never liked the vocals on this one. Of course I never like my vocals.

The Distance Between Us

One Of My Kind (Cover Song)

Whatever - (Cover Song)

I write and record on my own these days in my home studio. I used to play in a few Canadian indie alt-rock type bands that did fairly well.. 3 CDs canadian tours. 
These days I just write and record for fun and I'm always looking for someone who's got a like minded drive for music to collaborate with. 
The songs I've posted here are from past recording sessions, times in my life. I'm currently working on new material and may even consider playing live again......we'll see. 
Let me know what you think of my music.
