Bow Bink Interlude

Intro

These winters have a way of getting deep into your bones
like pain turns to anger if you leave it on its own
I said “My heart would never ache again” but I never had a choice

I staked your claim on home and everywhere I saw your face
Thought I’d leave you at the city line and cross a couple states
With nothing but some trauma, that I tried to lose in the noise 

While waiting for the sun to rise

I cut my hair, changed my name
sold my car, and I end each day
in an old dive bar where I stay till I feel like I’m dreaming
When I started out I was brokenhearted
now all that changed is my apartment
And where I lay my head when I should be sleeping
But I can’t outrun a feeling

I spin my wheels for weeks looking for something to behold
But I found little comfort cause the road is just a road
I’m miles and miles away still running circles in the emptiness I feel

Outrun A Feeling

Hello! We are a trio of kindred souls who met at the 2024 Tasmanian Rainbow Gathering, and composed this song together about our experience there. If you've ever been to a such a gathering, you'll probably pick up on some familiar vocabulary, and be amused by all the references we worked into the lyrics. 😉 We would love it if you'd share this with all the Rainbow Family members you are in contact with.

After the gathering, we spent a couple of weeks at Up the Twiss Studio recording our work, and many subsequent months perfecting the mix and carefully honing its accompanying music video. We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed creating it.

JK Hindberg: lead vocals, acoustic guitar, bass guitar, drum programming
Jesse McCormack: backing vocals, Celtic bouzouki, keyboard, shaker, choir arrangement
Thomas Bennett: rap, backing vocals

"Niño, Mi Compañero Fiel" – Un homenaje a mi mejor amigo

Esta canción está dedicada a Niño, mi perro bóxer con un nombre tan peculiar como su personalidad. Es un compañero juguetón, leal y travieso, que con su energía y cariño hace que cada día sea especial.

Desde esperar su bolillo en la puerta cada mañana, hasta sus peleas con Wisky y su miedo a los cohetes, Niño tiene una forma única de hacerme reír y llenar mi vida de amor. Aunque a veces tire la basura o babee más de la cuenta, no hay otro perro igual en el mundo.

Es un canto a la amistad, a la lealtad incondicional y a esos amigos de cuatro patas que nos enseñan lo hermoso que es vivir el presente.

🐶🎶 Para todos los que tienen un Niño en sus vidas.

Niño, Mi Gran Amigo

Reflections

Written from the words of Our Lady of Guadalupe.

Am I Not Here

Songwriter: Billy Wells

Verse
Cobblestone streets, a cherry blossom for old Georgetown
At Old Mac's we'd meet
And speak of the friends we don't see around anymore
I wonder what happened to pretty Jane's pot of gold
By the way do you know what a hippie does when he's old
And it's too late to turn back now

Verse
Summertime sweet, neon and never in old Georgetown
Stoned on my feet
And dressed like a lunatic circus clown and what for
Singing a protest song puttin' down the war
I hardly recall what I stood for in '64

Chorus
Living in old Georgetown
Both feet off the ground
Riding so high on a merry-go-round
Up so high I can't come down anymore
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Bridge
When feeling good was easy and Cancer was my sign
Getting down with the midnight crowd
Trying to save mankind
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Verse
Take me M street, across Key Bridge far from old Georgetown
Don't bury my feet
Just give me a dream that's not hand me down to the floor
Got a hole in my heart I can feel from my head to my toe
And I don't have a clue what I'm gonna do now I'm old
And it's too late to turn back now

Chorus
Living in old Georgetown
Both feet off the ground
Riding so high on a merry-go-round
Up so high I can't come down anymore
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Old Georgetown

To Get It Right

"Living the Dream" is a Folk/Pop duet that challenges the idea of what is normal, celebrating a love so real it defies expectations. This song is a powerful confession of finding an extraordinary love that not everyone gets to experience. The lyrics, driven by soft and emotional verses and a controlled, stronger chorus, tell the story of a man who knows he is one of the lucky few. It's a declaration of a love that is a dream, and a promise that this dream is real and not an illusion. The song, with its acoustic guitar and piano foundation and warm harmonies, is a joyous ode to a love that is an "angel." The track's heartfelt lyrics are a beautiful reminder that a dream can become a reality, and a love that is not ordinary is the most beautiful of all. What is your normal? Is it a dream?

Lyrics
Living the Dream

They say, it is not that easy
We go through life believing, believing
Thinking we are going to make it, make it
Seeing the dream in front of us, but not many get there (no, no they don’t)

But, I got to tell you, I am one of the few (I see the dream, yeah dream)
Your walkin beside me everyday, your in my arms every night
This is a man living the dream, and everyone would tell you (including me)
This is not likely to happen, it is not the normal, it is not the ordinary
But I am living the dream, I am going to take it, who cares about the normal. (not me, ooooh)

Everyday, you care for me, your always there
You love me in every way, I am never left guessing (your love is there)
It is a dream to be with you, each night you lay down with me
I know it is real, it is our ordinary, it is our normal (living the dream)

(Real, yeah real ….. ooooh our ordinary ……ooooh our normal …. Oooh yeah)

But, I got to tell you, I am one of the few (I see the dream, yeah dream)
Your walkin beside me everyday, your in my arms every night
This is a man living the dream, and everyone would tell you (including me)
This is not likely to happen, it is not the normal, it is not the ordinary
But I am living the dream, I am going to take it, who cares about the normal. (not me, ooooh)

But, I got to tell you, I am one of the few (I see the dream, yeah dream)
Your walkin beside me everyday, your in my arms every night
This is a man living the dream, and everyone would tell you (including me)
This is not likely to happen, it is not the normal, it is not the ordinary
But I am living the dream, I am going to take it, who cares about the normal. (not me, ooooh)

This is our dream, and I got to tell you it is not ordinary, it is not normal, but it is ours (ooooh …..yeah ….yeah…. living the dream)

Living the Dream

Living the Dream - A Duet for an Extraordinary Love

AUTUMN FALLS (Cooper/Jones)

(c) All Rights reserved 2025 





I hear the wind a-blowing

As it nudges through the trees

The seasons ever flowing

And gone is summer breeze




There’s comfort in the evenings 

As darkness folds in fast

A memo cloaked in meaning

That nothing ever lasts 




Autumn falls 

Autumn falls 

Listen closely to the sound

As Autumn falls 




The temperature is chilly

At the book-ends of the day

We layer up, feel silly 

As we cast them off mid-way




The air smells like the currents 

Shifting, bringing storms 

We start to think of Christmas

Halloween, Guy Fawkes 




Autumn falls

Autumn falls

Listen closely to the sound

As Autumn falls




Some leaves break away 

And conkers drop and roll

Soon the palette’s new array

Is crimson, brown and gold




Autumn falls 

Autumn falls 

Listen closely to the sound 

As Autumn falls 




Autumn falls 

Autumn falls 

Listen closely to the sound 

As Autumn falls 

Listen closely to the sound 

As Autumn falls

Autumn Falls

Ista nalûn, an nahrum — nai ketruz, mer argal

U ho, ambar nî, silên ek môra, ath anâ — kort u khatak

Ho rag — nai mirth, mer dól dors sûr 
Nema in taldôr, akhar… be adan.

Nema alûn verég kevr to zêkr panîm 
Lepâmin… basta iven in kîs

Charlotte E. Gray is a California native with a long history of loving music, writing poetry and singing her heart out for both personal and professional purposes.  Charlotte followed the example of her Mother, as a poet and her Father who loved all kinds of music.  After many years of singing other people's songs and attempting to ignite her desire to put music to her words, Charlotte begin to write down her inspirations.  Late in life she is proud to call herself a singer and a songwriter!  Charlotte looks forward to sharing her thoughts and inspirations with anyone else who loves music and poetry.  She gives the credit for her perseverance and inspirations to the support of her sister Tricia and her Beloved Lord, Jesus the King of Glory.

Late one summer, three young men from three different islands pitched their tents together in a remote valley. Many souls came and went from this little neighbourhood, finding shelter, nourishment, or company therein, but it was these three lads who were the constant core of this community. Over time, their shared love of music inspired them to combine their unique skills in an ambitious compositional project. As summer turned to autumn, from the fields of their imaginations they harvested a song which told of the bohemian circumstances that led to them establishing that neighbourhood together. As the Moon reaches his fullest, this song will be unveiled for all to hear…

I write love songs (375), horror stories (450), poetry, screenplays. I have 7.5 million hits on you tube and 20,000 followers. I like to create stuff; I read a lot. I'm a wild a crazy guy.

Karl McHugh’s folk/rock songwriting is a fusion of his upbringing in Donegal, Ireland and his current home in the San Francisco Bay Area. The retro-style folk music falls somewhere between the purview of Paul Simon and CCR, evoking a house party singalong vibe: fun, warm, inclusive, and good for a laugh!

Growing up, Karl had the advantage of having the family business, a video rental store, attached to his childhood home. Movies were easily accessible and from a young age, Karl eagerly helped out around the store. With a natural appreciation for stories and films, Karl frequently discussed new releases with customers and suggested titles tailored to their individual preferences. This passion for movies has inspired his upcoming single, “In The Movies”. The song explores the gap between what films portray and real life.

Karl’s recent Easy Life EP contains deeply personal songs inspired by his struggle with US immigration. In particular, the track “No One Told Me About You”, which documents his journey from Ireland to America, was recently featured on USA Network’s hit series “Temptation Island.” His single “Keep Dreamin’ ” – written as part of his Patreon Song Series – was awarded the prestigious Outstanding Achievement in Songwriting award at The Great American Songwriting Contest. 

His music continues to be widely recognised, appearing on several national TV shows and ad campaigns across both the United States and Ireland. Most recently, he composed the music for ‘The Pennsylvanian,’ a play by Jennifer Roberts. 

Before embarking on his solo project, Karl was a founding member of the Irish-American rock group, McHugh & Devine. The band toured and released The Movie Blues EP in 2015 and the Emerald Hills album in 2016. The group garnered recognition for their songwriting from both Bay Area and international organisations, including Adult Contemporary Song of the Year (West Coast Songwriters Association) and runner-up in the West Coast Songwriters International Song Contest for their 2015 song, “Flame.”

I'm a songwriter who loves the craft.  Always will.
