New Song Every Week ......week 1

Well, I am putting the finishing touches on the song for the week. While I realise that it's only Tuesday, this song has been floating around my head for a few days and if I don't get it out it might drive me insane.
I've spent a long time thinking about how to approach the art of songwriting. There are lots of different camps on the endeavor. I tend to fall a little more towards the "real" camp. That is to say that I like to keep it real. I like to keep the song as relevent to my life as I can. I try to write from the events of my life and my interpretation of those events. Maybe it was a woman that I dated or a former employer. It cold have been some one that I passed on the street who left an impression on me. As long as I can pull from my life, I know that I will relate to some one out there. After all we are all only human and the the human experience, while unique to each individual, is shared by all individuals.
So, keeping that in mind, I have rewritten this weeks song to bring it closer to home. I hope that this doesn't bother anyone. And, quite frankly, if it does, well........it's my life!

Just to keep everyone up to speed on how to get a hold of my songs I am including the SNOCAP "store" that I have available for my material up to this date.


This store will always be available. But I am creating a new store for my new material. Every now and then I will add one of the songs to my MySpace page;

So keep an eye out for that as well. Also, please feel free to contact me on myspace. Stop by and say hello, check up on tour dates, all that good stuff!
