Wrote this in around 2000 when I started recording digitally and using a midi  controller for the first time. 

Insane Kids Song

Merry Christmas! 
Just a low-quality demo. This is really old, from the late 90s I think. Thought I'd re-post for the holiday.

Merry Christmas!
Another really old one. These are some of the first things I recorded digitally, mid- to late-90s. I should re-do soon. One of my favorite Christmas songs.

Christmas Time

In September 2014 my Facebook artist page approached 1000 likes, so I posted that I would write a song for whoever was my 1000th like. My friend Angela was the 1000th to like my page. Took me 3 months to get the time to throw together this goofy tune. Enjoy my mellifluous vocals because if youre lucky you will NEVER hear them again!! haha

Thank You Angela My 1000th Facebook Like

One of the very few times you will ever hear me sing. From a Glendale Jazz Jam in 2013, a duet with my friend the amazing Shea Marshall

I copped an isolated drum track to Gimme Shelter and I played all the other instruments to make a backing track. So this is me playing with Charlie Watts. Fun! (please no one sue me) Makes a good karaoke track right now before I add vocals. Sing along or whatever. Ill take this down soon. Just feeling this song. Play along, record something and post it!
