Middle aged, middle class, songwriter from middle America.

I asked the kids for a topic to write a song about. One of their friends in that dejected and sad voice that only a 17 year old girl can make says, ā€œfake love.ā€ She then went on a very heartfelt rant about why she feels that way. So, I present to you Fake Love.

Thanks for all the support, finally made the top 5 over at Wavlake. Who knew all I had to do was write the saddest song I could think of. Anyway, glad you like it.

As always I'm blown away by the generosity of this community, I didn't think anyone would listen to this let alone get me in the top ten over at Wavlake. I wrote this song for my wife as she deals with losing her beloved cousin Rose. It's the first song I've ever written where I couldn't sing it all in one take due to falling apart mid-way. Thanks for listening, you all are the best.

Just released Don't Worry, You Still Have Time To Ruin It on Wavlake. This one sounds better loud. Annoyingly loud. Downstairs neighbor banging on their ceiling with a broom loud. It was fun to make, so I hope you have fun listening to it.

Getting psyched for the Satellite Skirmish this Sunday.

It's a livestreamed video battle of the bands linked to your lightning wallets. Should be a good time, live hosts and great bands. Consider boosting the shit out of Death by Lions, I'm a pacifist, but I also love winning things.

It's big productions like this that will help to grow this community, see you Sunday!

It’s baby steps for me. I do the same thing when getting into a cold body of water. One inch at a time, torturing myself with every step, envious of those that run and dive in off the dock.

I first read that as ā€œeverybody here is sleeping with Nate Johnivanā€ and I got worried that I couldn’t possibly pleasure everyone, it’s hard enough satisfying just one person, but I was willing to try. Thanks for the nice words! Death by Lions is going into the studio next month to record 6 and those songs are bangers man. Red Arrow Highway just finished the demos for an 11 song album as well. So there’s plenty more coming.

Dave had some music without vocals and I love nothing more than being given a canvas that already has a beautiful background on it and all I have to do is fill in the foreground with some lyrics and vocals. Here's the first couple we made.

Awe man!!! Thank you!! Writing that album quite literally saved my life, so I’m glad to hear it being so appreciated.

I hope you enjoy this cover of the Bright Eyes song, Bowl of Oranges. It was very fun to record and collaborate with my friend Austin.

I’ve been using Alby for a while and it works great! I think zaps are changing from replacing the ā€œlikeā€ button to more of a ā€œtipā€ for people actually putting out content. You wouldn’t tip someone for having a conversation with you, but you would tip a musician that entertained you. I think that’s what’s happening.

I wrote this album as one long story, but then thought it would be wierd to put it out as one long track. Then I thought fuck it, and put it out on Wavlake as one long song and it's been creeping up the "trending" chart, further proving to me to "always do the wierd thing." If you have a sec go give this one some love for me. https://wavlake.com/track/c9c72c6c-0cdd-4f93-a1b5-acb0d437bf84

Happy birthday to me. And a gift for you. First video from my band Death by Lions is only available right here in Nostr!

Thanks so much!! I’m very content to just sit in my studio and make things, pushing them out into the world and hoping they are enjoyed. It’s too painful to track them after they leave my bubble so I just focus on the next thing, but seeing your post has recharged my batteries like crazy so thank you for that.

Short answer, nope. I have insomnia. Let me know what ya think when you have a chance to listen!
