Embark on a lyrical journey through the enchanting world of "Hannah's Dance," a folk ballad that unfolds like a timeless love story whispered by the wind. The song begins with the serendipitous meeting of two souls, the narrator and the elusive Hannah, in the most unexpected of circumstances. As the morning sun bathes the world in a golden glow, the narrator finds themselves entranced, dancing in a daze, and captivated by Hannah's gaze.

Yet, like the transient nature of dawn, Hannah departs into the darkness of the day, leaving the narrator with a heart filled with gold and a longing that sets them on a wandering path. The moon hangs in the icy cold night sky as the narrator embarks on a quest, seeking Hannah's name among friends and picking sunflowers by the road. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the narrator's search, guided by the ethereal beauty of the moonlit night.

The poetic narrative unfolds further, revealing the narrator's admiration for Hannah's unparalleled beauty, described as surpassing even the most enchanting muses. The light green eyes of Hannah evoke a melancholic yet captivating sensation, leaving the narrator at a loss for words to adequately capture her allure.

Amidst the poetic verses, a shared moment is reminisced—eating strawberries in the sun, an expression frozen in time. The lyrics delve into the complexities of love, hinting at its selfish nature and the pursuit of a chance that has only just begun. The song becomes a melodic canvas where emotions are painted with acoustic strokes, and each note carries the weight of a love story unfolding.

"Hannah's Dance" is not just a song; it's a lyrical odyssey that captures the magic of fleeting encounters, the ache of unspoken words, and the timeless pursuit of love. Join the narrator in this folk serenade, where every chord strummed is a step closer to understanding the mysteries of the heart.

Hannah

Late 60's psychedelic folk type of track. Lyrics are surrealist and I drew a lot of inspiration out from the beatnik greats like Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac.

Rainboots

A song written about an imaginary adult actress, fun and upbeat funk rock. Some psychedelic and alternative music influences.

June In Bloom

Sun Soup represents validation from others amongst other things. Angsty alternative punk song.

The Root Note (Conversation/Jam With Winn Alexander)

Winn Alexander is a singer songwriter and guitar player. Winn was born and raised in the state of Oregon. At 28 he is a uncommonly skillful guitarist and vocalist. He also performs live on the piano and incorporates the harmonica at times.

Winn grew up in a musical family. He started getting into the guitar in his teenage years and began taking music classes in school. He then started busking "street performing" and playing at local coffee shops. Winn formed a acoustic duo (2007) with a friend from California, Hudson McCarty. They called themselves the Howlers.

They started learning songs by Buddy Holy, Elvis Presley, Sam Cooke and the Rolling Stones. Winn kept experimenting with writing and recording. They played various shows and also performed some songs live on a few college radio stations.

Then around 2009 Winn ended up in Twin Falls, Idaho and was introduced to Jake Magee at a local coffee shop. They decided to form a group with drummer Caleb Turner and called the band , the Precepts. They started learning songs by the Sonics and the Beatles. The Percepts performed music around the Twin Falls, Nampa and Boise area. Then Winn left Idaho and went back to Oregon and the Precepts disbanded. Winn and Jake stayed in touch and in 2010 formed the Indigo Art Tribe. Joining them was a high school pal Merlin Goddard and a new friend Tom Donaghue. The band eventually moved to Portland, Oregon and played live at various venues in town. They continued to experiment with recording music and writing music.

Once again the band would disband and Winn performed solo for some time. Then in 2015 Winn, Jake and Merlin got a new band together. They called it Radio Wolf. This new line up also included Geoff Bond on drums and Stephan Budge on saxophone. They went on to record some original songs at Mountain Air Recording Studios in Portland, Oregon. Radio Wolf had a weekly residence performing at the Starday Tavern and also played at the Ash Street Saloon, The Alberta Rose Theatre, The Horse Raddish Cafe, The Hawthorne Theatre, The Bossanova Ballroom and even played a short set at the Goodfoot.

Radio Wolf also eventually disbanded leaving Winn to perform music solo again.
