Even on My Worst Days

L'infini

Brighter

Rise and Fall

One of my fave trad folk songs. So cool! Recorded in one take with my good friend Chris Hales on lead guitar. I added some percussion and banjo later to fill out the sound a bit.

ROLL ON BABE

Alas, time and space

I missed ya
in the long
time 
between
the last
time 
I saw ya
and now.

I missed ya
in the wide
open space
we went through
to get to
here.

__About the album/band:
Thelma’s Dream is a four-piece band from Helsinki, Finland, blending dream pop, shoegaze, grunge, and alt-rock into a sound that’s both heavy, melodic and ethereal.

Formed in 2020, they drift between dense distortion and delicate melody, led by haunting, airy vocals that cut through the noise.

Dinosaurs and Meteors

Life is changing
most of the time,
but if you are near me,
I’m fine.

Hope’s not dying
most of the time.
I’ll be right here with you—
it’s fine.

Glowing fragments in the night,
we turn towards the sky,
and I’m holding your hand
while we watch the light.
We are dinosaurs,
watching meteors.
We are dinosaurs,
watching meteors,
hoping everything
will be alright.

A new era
from time to time.
There’s before and after—
it’s fine.

Glowing fragments in the night,
we turn towards the sky,
and I’m holding your hand
while we watch the light.
We are dinosaurs,
watching meteors.
We are dinosaurs,
watching meteors,
hoping everything
will be alright.

If this is what marks a new era for us,
a before and after today,
caused by a comet dividing our past
and taking the old life away—
how is it that we are the dinosaurs
and the comet at the same time?

Are we dinosaurs
or the meteors?
Are we dinosaurs
or the meteors?
Are we dinosaurs
or meteors?

Dinosaurs and Meteors

Verse 1:
Many days it’s hard to wake up
In a world that is so cold
But the only way to shake up
Is to stand and be bold

Promises keep on breaking
Empty words play on repeat
Crooked smiles won’t stop faking
You gotta claim your empty seat

Chorus:
You don’t have to run and hide
You can just roll with the tide
And eventually you’ll be on the shore
The more and more you try 
You will grow stronger inside
And find out that you can be so much more

Verse 2:
In the end what truly matters
Are the things you leave behind
Plant a seed and watch it scatter
To the places left to find

You can sit at the table
There’s always room for many more
If you’re willing and you’re able
To break right through the open door

Chorus:
You don’t have to run and hide
You can just roll with the tide
And eventually you’ll be on the shore
The more and more you try 
You will grow stronger inside
And find out that you can be so much more

Just walk through the door

You Don’t Have To Run And Hide

Change Our Mind

Small Alt/Rock artist from Atlanta, I mainly play live shows but really wanted somewhere to release some demos and raw versions of my songs. This is a journal of sounds, ideas, originals and covers, I don’t claim to own any of the covers but still wanna share my versions of songs I don’t want the world to forget. I can’t wait to connect with more artists. Honest feedback always welcome
