I added a new song to the player. It’s called “Frantic Freedom”.

It’s a live studio groove rock jam that’s funky as hell! Think of Jimi Hendrix’s “Foxey Lady” on steroids, and you’ll have a good idea of what’s in store for you when you hear the song. There’s also a companion live video for the song. And in the video I do my upside-down guitar thing. Ya gotta see it!!

Also, I added another video called “a little bit of my history”, in which I talk about some of the things that shaped me as a guitar player.

Check it out also!

…enjoy!

Yes I agree. Maybe we should do a gig together at the old Depot in Covington. Do you know who is booking there now?

I added 2 new songs to the music player. The first song, “RUN”, is now complete with vocals added. The origin of this song is from me wanting to write a really aggressive uptempo and earthy rock song like Jimi Hendrix’s “Fire”. The result is a very aggressive, uptempo and earthy rock song, done in my characteristic odd-meter time signature. I guarantee that it is the hottest, funkiest, and most original thing you’ll ever hear from just one man!

The second song is a redo of my solo acoustic song “EVERFIRE, EVERWIND”.
It’s melodic, free form, and tender (what? A tender song from me. lol). It’s also about as unique an acoustic performance as you’ll ever hear.

Check out both songs, I guarantee they won’t disappoint!

Hi there The Cool Swap first of all we'd like to say thanks for being our myspace pal. We wanted to make sure you knew the reason incase we suddenly vanish off of your friends list. The movement we've started for indie artists has grown significantly and consumes all of our time these days. We seldom sign into our myspace account and this is making several people believe that we are ignoring them. We are not ignoring anyone, we wanted everyone to know that. What we're doing has become so busy we just don't have the time for myspace any longer, so in all honesty we are probably going to just close our myspace account.

Many people wanted to use us in the future so if you were one of those people make sure you bookmark the link below so that in the event that we do close our myspace account you won't lose contact with us. I wish you the best of luck in your music career. Thanks again for being our myspace pal.
