New Music Brewing! (Hopefully for 2025)
Hello friends,
I have a special release coming soon that is almost finalized. It's something I've been wanting to do for a while and since I have the material available, I figured, why not? The music is not what you are accustomed to hearing from me unless you are a die-hard practice room jams listener, hint. I will be releasing it exclusively on the website soon. Keep checking the website for that to drop.
Anyway, here we go!
I'm feeling inspired lately and want to share my journey to 10 new songs for a new record release (hopefully) in 2025. I completed song one a few days ago. It's one of the most exciting songs I've come up with in a while. The song sounds very upbeat and filled with lots of new guitar riffs. I think it's going to be the first track to hit you on the new record.
I'm trying to find some new guitar sounds and new ways to record this project. Hopefully, I can make it the best-sounding record to date. I wish I had access to a better studio, but I love doing this on my own at my own pace. I think it's time for a new house. Wishful thinking of course.
I'll keep you posted as I write 10 new songs for a new record.
March 30th update:
Song 2 sounds great! I hope this inspiration continues. This one came out of nowhere, as do all my songs, but this one surprised me with where the inspiration came from. I didn't realize it until I was halfway through the song, but I was glad this one came across my path. I will give you a hint with the song title. Morse Code. This one is very difficult to play due to all the guitar riffs tucked inside. I also came across a new guitar sound that I'm excited to play with. I hope it finds it's way throughout this record.
Waiting for the next song to arrive.

April 13th Update:
Song three started off with three ideas. Should I say I have songs three, four, and five? Well, not really, but maybe. Hahaha. I'm putting the final touches on it, but for the most part, I feel it's complete. I'm also trying to find better mixing and mastering techniques. This means I'm spending more time on the production than I did on my previous releases.
I've also decided to include my song "Maui" on this record since it never had a proper home. I'm going to remix and master it to flow with this production. Now, it has a place to shine.
I'm really happy with the overall sound of these first songs, and I hope that it continues throughout my journey of ten new songs.
Until the next song!
