I’ve been writing songs since early 2010. Here’s a few in various states of completion and recording.
Find Your Ride
This was my first “demo” recorded at Studio 37 in Fishers, IN. The song was inspired by 1st Corinthians 2:9 and features my wife Laura on harmonies.
Breathe It Out
Getting in the game.
Rusted Parts
Searching the junkyard for a metaphor.
She Don’t Mind
Co-written with John Stuckey, this was recorded at Paramount studio in Nashville. I wish I knew who the session singer was for this one.
Brand New
First try at finger-pickin’
Set For Life
Winning the lottery
It’s Just Mexico
My first real studio recording, inspired by a challenging vacation 🙂  Lyrics
Too Far Gone
Sometimes the most logical intentions get hijacked by brown eyes and an innocent smile. Special thanks to Doug Morrison on lead guitar.  Lyrics
The Shepherd and the Angel
This a Christmas song I wrote for the kids to sing at our McConda family gathering in 2010. In July 2011, I submitted this new version for NSAI’s “Christmas in July” evaluation. 4-year-old Eli and 7 year old Autumn help me out on vocals as “The Shepherd” and “The Angel”.
Dixie Highway
Between home and home there’s an exit off of I-275 for the Dixie Highway. Lots of driving time after and I had the story of this distraught dude. What do you think he did?
Sunday Morning
My first “real” song (at least that I would want anyone to hear!). I started this in early January 2010 and finished during my trip to Haiti that same month.
Water
Finally got around to recording this one at home. This features my son Eli on guitar, my wife Laura on harmony and lead vocals, and my good friend from F3, Paul “PVC” Smith on bass.
