Writing songs for my new cd...I play all my own instruments, do my own vocals, produce and engineer.
I am just a hobbyist, creating music in a vacuum as an answer to the ultimate zen riddle. I play all my own instruments, do all my own vocals, write all music and lyrics, and arrange, engineer and produce my own tracks in my home studio.

Lyrics
Uncle John didn't say much, but he spoke through his actions His sentences formed by the deeds he had done. That day I got the phone call, my only reaction Was a moment of silence cause my words were all gone Godspeed you to heaven Uncle John Uncle John's hands could fix stuff but his childhood was broken His world had made him grow up just a little too young But a fishing boat awaits him, where God knows he could use one All he has to do is step on The fishing’s good in heaven Uncle John Bridge: We're all getting older and the worlds getting colder Watching all our loved ones move on And everytime we lose one, I see the face of my son Who tells me that they're really not gone - They wait for you in heaven, Uncle John Uncle John never talked much, but it seemed like he meant to His silence spoke volumes while the years rolled along He said more by dying, than just where that he went to So maybe we had him all wrong We'll talk to you in heaven Uncle John
