Return of the Muse

I may have finished writing two songs today. Each had a verse or two left to compose, plus some polishing, and I think that I worked them out this afternoon. They are tentatively called In the Meantime and Pablo Fiasco. We shall see if I still like them as I incorporate them into my practice setlists over the next few weeks. 

If all is good, then I might be a little closer to the completion of the album that I've been chipping away at for quite some time now. I also started putting lyrics to another song today. All in all, it was a productive Friday.

Once I have recorded versions that I like of the new songs, I will post them somewhere. 

Stay tuned...

All-In

Human beings are social animals, and for tens of thousands of years, cooperation has been the key to our survival. When we work together toward a common good, we are all better off (including you). 
 
These songs are rooted in a fundamental belief in the intrinsic benevolence of humanity and our collective will to overcome obstacles and obstinance:

 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Civilization is built upon the idea that together, we are more than the sum of our parts. Optimism fuels progress, which is how we build a better future. 

Don't let cynicism and hatred destroy us. Resist fascism.
