Here is an original song that is still a work in progress. It's called... "I Need Time". This is recorded with my brand new Yamaha FGX730SCA... Hope you all like it...

This is what I recorded this past Thursday night at the open mic that I have been attending for two and a half years. I have never gotten up to sing until this night and this is the first song I ever sang in front of people. I was scaired to death but still managed to get through it without sounding too bad. I am playing rythum and singing lead and my friend Randall is adding guitar licks and harmonizing on the chorus.

The best part is... a pretty girl hugged me after we where done the set. This couls be the start of my dream of singing/playing for people.

This is a poem that my sister wrote when she was a teenager. She wanted me to see if I could make a song out of one of her poems, and this one just spoke to me for some reason.

So I made it into this song for her... It's titled... I Miss You.

Not too sure about the song, but it's a great poem, I recorded it with my new Sterling ST55 condensor mic (in one take). Hope you all enjoy it.

It was Soldiers who gave us our independance, so, this is a song I wrote back in my Soldiering days. It's titled... "I Am A Soldier".

For some reason I'm a little pitchy today, but I did not want to do more than one take so, here goes...

Hope you all like it.

Soldiers are a big part of the reason why we are able to do things like this VOM, and I salute them.

I know you all are going to get a laugh out of this, but what the heak. This is my horrible attempt at a cover. I just started learning it today, and believe me... you can tell...lol I am learning the chords as well as reading the words, and trying to sing and play at the same time (let alone trying to play finger style which I suck at). But... I figured that if I ever got up at an open mic... this is how horrible I would actually sound...lol So... Here it is... House At Pooh Corner (Kenney Loggins) Don't laugh too hard...

This is a song I wrote last summer after spending a week at the jersey shore. I went there with the intention of being inspired to write a song. The inspiration never came. About a week after coming home, the inspiration hit me, And I wrote this song. It's called "By The Sea".
