I love this tune. I have been keeping it in my back pocket for at least a year now, opening it up to tinker with it every week or two. Something about the character of that dirty guitar and that haunting piano melody in the chorus – it’s like Tom Waits on Halloween. Pleeeease let…

Here’s a fun jaunty acoustic tune. My favourite aspect of this track is the mandolin melody in the chorus (starts around 22 seconds in). This song sounds a bit like Tom Waits and a Traditional Slavic band had a baby. Things turn a little extra darker near the outro. I’d love to hear what sort…

Here’s the soundtrack to a big ol’ raucous family dinner. This track was originally recorded as the soundtrack to a podcast episode I produced about home cooking.

You’ll find a number of other songs from this series available on the site – they are all very folk/country sounding, full of banjos, mandolins & acoustic guitars.

This is a fun one. This was another track I recorded as part of a podcast series I produced called “The Homestead”. The episode this track was created for was all about community – how you find your community, how odd community glue themselves together, etc. The entire song began with me recreating that grade…

I have a really soft spot for this track – I think it might be one of my all time favourites on the music supply. It was originally recorded for a podcast series I created called “The Homestead”. The episode it was used in was all about true grit – what it means to have…
