New 2024 EP from Moon to Monk, "Crystalline".  It's a bit more acoustic sounding than previous releases.  All percussion is samples of different types of glass being struck, thus their unusual sound.  As always, I hope you dig this.

Crystalline

I've Forgotten Who I Am

LYRICS
*******
Sun’s up
Summer’s on
Dewdrops on the lawn
True friends to call upon
“All clear!”
The bullies are gone

Bike ride
To anywhere
We’re free
We’re already there

Kick the can
Truth or Dare
Sun sets
And we don’t care

But the past
Doesn’t last

Just another week
Just another day
Just another breath
Nostalgia calling
Nostalgia calling

Just another week
Just another day
Just another breath
Nostalgia calling
Nostalgia calling

Just another week
Just another day
Just another breath
Nostalgia calling
Nostalgia calling

Just another week
Just another day
Just another breath
Nostalgia calling

I miss getting high
I miss living the lie
I miss not making sense
Before the consequences

Forget the burning because
I miss the haze and the fuzz
Before I knew who I was
Black lungs
To pay for the buzz

I’m glad the past
Doesn’t last

Just another week
Just another day
Just another breath
Nostalgia calling
Nostalgia calling

Just another week
Just another day
Just another breath
Nostalgia calling
Nostalgia calling

Just another week
Just another day
Just another breath
Nostalgia calling
Nostalgia calling

Just another week
Just another day
Just another breath
Nostalgia calling

I am here
I am clear

At this time
Without fear
Watch the past disappear

Time to feel
Time to deal

And this moment 
Is all that I have
--That is real

Mmm hmm
Mmm hmm

Nostalgia Calling

LYRICS
*******
Shed the factions
And regimes
Shed my thoughts
And shed the memes

Shed the future
Shed the past
Shed the things
That never last

Shed addictions
Shed my lies
Shed my secrets
And alibis

Shed my hopes
And shed my fears
Shed them all
But shed no tears

New bones
I’m gonna round up
New bones
Startin’ from the ground up

New bones
Yeah, I’m gonna round up
New bones
Startin’ from the ground up

Shed my hair
And shed my skin
Shed my muscles
And we’ll begin

Shed my blood
My brain, my heart
Shed my bones
So I can start

New bones
I’m gonna round up
New bones
Startin’ from the ground up

New bones
Yeah, I’m gonna round up
New bones
Startin’ from the ground up

New Bones

LYRICS
*******
I'm leaving the Earth
It can't take anymore
I'll make no demands
Like I used to before

I'll fly up thru' the atmosphere
'Cause I can't breathe down here
I'm leaving today
Floating up and away
I can't wait for my head to clear

I'm leaving these humans
So mindless and cruel
I'll wear the sun like a halo
Like a jewel

Blue and gold above me
Green below, green below
In my protective bubble
Here I go
Here I go
Here I go

I'll fly up thru' the atmosphere
'Cause I feel trapped down here
As night settles in
I'm about to begin
My journey away from the fear

I'm in the Earth's shadow now
Here come the stars
Soon I'll see if there's life
Up on Mars

I start to rise thru' the atmosphere
I've done all I can down here
I'm leaving tonight
In a sphere of white light
You can watch me as I disappear

Atmosphere

I'm makin' this up as I go along.  Here you will find songs in various states of completion--some of them actually finished!  Most are by "Moon to Monk",  but there are tunes by "Blond Weasel" (a band I'm in with my brother Christopher).  There are several collaborations with talented people.   I hope you find something to dig here. 

PS:  I have several original music videos posted to "youtube", and "facebook".  Please check them out if you like.  Just click the appropriate links below.
