Maybe give it a follow and a share if you enjoy it. I update it every couple of weeks.

When I'm choosing songs for it, I always end up telling a little story. Maybe you can tell. Maybe you can just enjoy the songs, or maybe discover something cool that I discovered and thought was cool. I just enjoy making it and sharing it.

I just refreshed the Rock Bottom Revue playlist, and it is stacked. Happy, sad, really sad, rocking, funny, self-aware, self-destructive, old, new, and diverse.
It's linked on my website, or just click here:

I misunderstood your question... My song that sounds similar is called Foolish and Fragile. But it's not recorded yet.

Should be a few bucks coming your way ๐Ÿ‘

Sure, I'll be happy to.
You can check any of my songs, but if I have to pick one try "I Just Might Miss You" from the Waterworks album

It's interesting! I actually have a song that has a guitar part very similar to the one on your first song, just a little different rhythm.

And if that doesn't interest you, you should still take a minute to look around. There is a lot of outstanding music available, and some artists only use Bandcamp, in order to stay away from the less fair treatment of artists on other platforms.

That means all profits from music sales today from Bandcamp go to the artist, with no cut taken by the platform.
If you're interested, my first two albums and a few singles are available for digital purchase on there.

My new live album recorded in the Netherlands comes out two weeks from today. I'm really excited about that.
But I would be remiss if I didn't at least let you know that today is Bandcamp Friday!
Check it out if you take a notion:

I was watching their soundcheck, and I said to myself, that's the Old 97s bass player... And I was right haha

Very nice!
I was excited to meet Stephen McCarthy the same night I met you in Utrecht. I never thought I'd get a chance to see the Long Ryders!

I've written a lot of sad songs.
I've even written a sad song about writing sad songs.
Today I think I finally wrote one that's going to make people worry about me.
It's upbeat and very catchy... But oh so bleak.

Last fall I had the amazing opportunity to travel to the Netherlands to play my music. I'm excited to announce that a live album of songs recorded during those performances is going to be released March 21st!
This is a video of one of those songs:

How it's going:
Knew I was talking to a scammer on a dating app. Kept going just to have someone to talk to.

In that limbo when I'm still not quite sure whether the person texting me is a scammer, or has just terrible spelling and grammar.

I just remembered that last night I had a dream that I found out my teenage son had a girlfriend named Glebby.

Cattle Call, because you can probably use a little yodel to break up your doom scrolling. ๐Ÿฎ
