This has some words, I wrote the diddy when I got my dog Gibson 8 years ago.  I  wanted to have some friends listen to it, and was surprised how well I actually developed the idea.

Not sure how far the words have gone...the chorus is

Little dog, little dog dog
Little dog, do the Gibby Poop

Verse was at least something like:

Who's jumping off the bed at night
Always hiding out of sight
Barking at the bigger dogs?
Gibby does!

Gibby Poop

Frank Black and the Catholics cover when my dog went to the vet.

Solo work about my dog who is featured on the 2024 WeRateDogs calendar.

Calendar Girl

Some people call her a bitch
Some people think she is mean
But if you scratch her itch
It's not the way that it seems
She's my baby.  She's my love
She's my little dream

She's not the type you take to the prom.
She is the type you can take home to mom.
She can be dirty when she gets into bed
But that's the way she was bred
She never lies, when I look in her eyes,
She's my favorite prize

She's my little calendar girl
She's the cutest when she poses for me
She means the world to me
She's my little calendar girl

She's my little calendar girl
She's there for the world to see
She's the best girl to me
She's my little calendar girl

She's not the type to pick up the phone
She gladly waits for me at home
She loves the times when we go out
Other times she'll sit and pout
She's a fine looker, got to give her a smooch
I couldn't ask for a better pooch

She's my little calendar girl
She's the cutest when she poses for me
She means the world to me
She's my little calendar girl

Calendar Girl

Ran up north to find the sun,
emptiest place you could ever imagine.
Got no sleep, that midnight light
kept everyone up till dawn-
shittiest sunrise I ever saw.

And we couldn’t eat a thing-
didn’t really bring
much of anything
anyway, but hey
a least we tried
to get on by.
 
Burnt-out trash and gunshots ring,
and we couldn’t eat a thing-
didn’t really bring
much of anything
anyway, but hey
at least we tried
to get on by.

slippin'

Jenny cried the whole way down  
sinking underneath-
I left the front door open
for her back room grief  
                     
Stared down every line in the road  
hoping to see your name.
They spelled absolutely nothing at all-
ain’t it a shame, but who’s to blame?

How long can just one year last  
if you never say it out loud?  
I tried to fight the sun for the past,
but it hid underground-
nowhere to be found.

You left without telling the kitchen                          
the ashtray still thinks you’re home.
Driving past exits I forgot by heart,
pretending they all look familiar now  
                         
Jenny was humming a song I forgot  
or maybe it never existed.
I asked what she needed, she said  
“Keep moving,” and I did.

How long can just one year last  
if you never say it out loud?   
I tried to fight the sun for the past,
but it hid underground-       
nowhere to be found.
                        
Jenny cried the whole way down  
I kept reading between the lines  
Jenny cried the whole way down  
and I just kept on trying,
I just keep trying.

3 Nights (Dominic Fike Cover)

music for dogs. do not listen if this doesn’t describe you (i will come find you)

Multi instrumentalist/writer.  These are MIDI demo's, so nothing real.  A real band will create a new page if/when we start recording anything.

Collection of creative scraps of home studio ventures by solitary musician/songwriter for personal enjoyment. All works written, performed, recorded and produced by just me unless otherwise noted.  First instrument - saxophone, ventured into the guitar, then kept going.  
But I absolutely love creating and collaborating and building songs together with others.  So, this site contains solo works, collaborations and a playlist nod to a long-time revolving door of music loving players we've called Madd Cow.

What's next?  Who knows.
