“Not Just A Little” is a heartfelt ballad about memory, loss, and the fading traces of someone once deeply loved. The song carries a haunting melody wrapped in tender vulnerability, where each verse reflects on a love slipping further into the past. With its emotional chorus and poignant bridge, it speaks to anyone who’s ever tried to hold onto someone they can’t let go of. This isn’t just a song of fading—it’s a declaration that the love felt was never ‘just a little,’ but something profound and unforgettable.”

Not Just A Little

Raised in Concrete Washington, I learned to play the guitar when I was 12 years old.  We had a music teacher by the name of Daryl Cooper who was like my older brother.  He started a guitar class and I couldn't wait to be in it.  By the 2nd or 3rd week I had probably outgrown the class but I enjoyed every minute of it.  I was in his band by the time I was 14 playing dances all over Western Washington.  I was awarded the National Choral Award Scholarship my senior year of high school.  This goes to one student in the United States.  I wasn't smart enough to use it.  I joined the United States Navy in 1979 and stayed for almost 22 years.  During that time I was a submariner and eventually the pilot of a small submersible (DSV3 Turtle) that would dive to 10,000 feet deep.  I was in bands playing guitar and singing throughout my military career.  We actually had a couple songs play on DC101 in the 80's.  Now in my 60's, I'm able to relax and write songs without any pressure or dreams of grandeur.  I like the songs I write and hope you like them too.
