Cooking up something new…

Monday, March 8th, 2010

At this very moment I am cooking. As a kid, the only thing I understood about cooking was that it required mom to be in the kitchen at length so I would join her and try and stir stuff. I always stirred it too much. A couple of decades later here I am writing music and cooking a ziti/pesto/broccoli with chicken kind of thing- this has become my favorite dish to cook because when I’m done it actually tastes good. I am also cooking some other things that you eat with your ears and heart instead of your mouth and that’s really what I am here to talk about. I have started production on a new album. This will be a full length record consisting of songs I have buried in my journal and depths of my hard drive for various personal reasons that more than likely involved a form of insecurity. Rest assured, these songs, along with brand new material will surface in the upcoming months. However, as an appetizer I am pushing out a ton of new content to my YouTube Channel.  In the past I have been asked for recordings/videos of certain songs I play live but have never released or covers I have adopted but never recorded.  NOW is the time for these songs to come to life.  As I go through the process with the new album I will be posting sneak peeks into new songs, and choice covers from artists that have influenced me over the years… Please stay tuned…

Revisting Bob Dylan’s Chronicles

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

Over the last week or so I have been revisiting Bob Dylan’s Chronicles… Some of what he writes speaks loud and clear to me like a church bell ringing between my ears. So as I press through it I will log those parts here. The first are words from his grandmother:

“Happiness isn’t on the road to anything
Happiness is the road.”
