From the vault, circa 2006 or so. Back with my first band, we had what I’d describe as a heavy Taking Back Sunday vibe, in the way the lyrics would flow in and out and over top of each other. This is one of those. I’ll be demoing this one out for 2021. Let’s make up for lost timeLet’s make a sceneI can’t remember the … Continue reading Street Signs & City Lights
A work in progress, putting together the demo for it right now, thought I’d share the lyrics with ya before I share a snippet of what it sounds like. Sold on a dreamYou never had and I didn’t needIs this how you pictured love to be?You can tell me Met on a whim, Out to waste the nightFell for the smileAnd the way the light hit … Continue reading Our First House

Today brings us to track 3 on Jestem Krzywym Lasem, here’s our breakdown of “Without You”.

Quiksand was the first song I wrote that I realized pretty quickly it didn’t quite fit in with all the other songs I was working on at the time. It was somehow musically even more toned down than any … Continue reading Jestem Krzywym Lasem Track By Track: Quiksand
Following up on our blog about Jestem Krzywym Lasem, here’s our track by track breakdown of the first single from the record, track 2’s “Driveway”. “Driveway” was really the catalyst for deciding that I needed to branch away from (ha!) the Crooked Forest name for this EP and put it out under my given name. But knowing full well that this was just another piece … Continue reading Jestem Krzywym Lasem Track By Track: Driveway
I don’t really have a good title for this type of series yet, so this will have to suffice for now. Today I released 3 videos as part of my Wayback-Playback Wednesday acoustic cover song series. Normally, when I do these Wednesday covers they’re all sort of created and released in the same format. I talk a bit about this on this other blog post … Continue reading “Tiny Vessels” Cover Song Series
