Track List

 Groovy Love.  A funky rock song about a father's love for his daughter and the choices she makes.  This track features Brian McCullough on bass.
She’s A Good Girl.  Written for all the good girls in the world.   This track features Brian McCullough on bass.
Through the Night - A rock song about learning our way in the world and gaining confidence.  This song features the vocal accompaniment of Troti Vaugeois and the bass playing of Brian McCullough of Calgary, Alberta.
Even When it Hurts.  The saddest song I’ve ever written, This song was written while isolating in 2020.  Venues had all closed due to restrictions leaving me with nowhere to perform.  I used this time to write and record over the internet with Chaz Coats Butcher, bass player for Lee Aaron, Phil Narro, Moxy and the Forgotten Rebels; and Darryl Swart, drummer for, Rooks, Corb Lund, Tree 63 and JJ Shiplet.  Chaz and Darryl are featured on bass and drums.
Favourite Pair of Jeans.  A solo track about some of my favourite genes. 
Freedom and Liberty.  I wrote this song after witnessing many of my Alberta friends become radicalized under the Covid restrictions.  It is not a song about the politics of freedom and liberty.  It is about the commonalities that we all share with those people who might in other ways seem radical to us.   “Freedom Smokes a little too much weed, but maybe not enough..”   This song features Darryl Swart on Drums and Jay Bowcott of Rooks on backing vocals.  
Every Time You’re Gone.  Who doesn’t want to hear an original rock/reggae song performed on ukulele?  This is a song I’ve been performing live for more than a decade in a power trio, “Stratabuse”.  I like it like this too. 
Sweet Mary.  Just a good old-fashioned rock song with harmony lead guitar .
Found Love.  An instrumental RnB track featuring Peter Fischer of Toronto/Calgary on Saxaphone and Brian McCullough on bass.
Monumental.  I wrote this song after busking during a time when most pedestrians were already listening to music through their headphones.  Tough crowd.  “Ears in the past and eyes on the prize, they’re walking through the streets, but they're living on a cloud.”
Vatican Assassin.  Every word in this song was once uttered by a manic Charlie Sheen.  You never know where inspiration will come from. 
 Warm Noodles.  An instrumental full of noodling.  Warm noodling.
