A song about traveling performed live at Joshua Tree National Park. I wrote this song before I left for California back in 2008. It made me feel more at-ease about traveling across the country. I hope it makes you feel at-ease too.

You can run every day from paranoia
or you can run with it
There is a place that is safe in California
you can run with it

People know where to go and how to warn ya
You can stay in any place that has a sofa
Or on the ground in a town in South Dakota
Either way, you win.

Go on and get out there.

Archipelago Me – original recording

Video:


itunes link: http://bit.ly/EmptyRoomsEP

I released this EP a while back in 2009 when I was living on my sister's couch after I first moved to LA. No accompanying video yet, but I wanted to put the song out there to see what you think. Looking forward to releasing something new, but getting the old out of the way feels good. Keep truckin'.

If there is something to go back to
don't sign that lease
I've been feeling things that I thought
were rightly deceased
See, life's just a sleepy dream
and I think you should say what you mean
If there is something to go back to then
go....go.... go ahead and go.

If there is hatred to hold on to
lay your head down and weep
A little bird in my tree
gives me peace I can keep
If life's such a sleep dream
why don't I just say what I mean?
If there is something to hold on to then
hold... hold.... until you're sad and old.

I've been hiding all of my sickly songs
because I am an island in the sea
of what I think I should be -
Archipelago Me.

Go... go.... go ahead and go.

Autumn in America – demo

Video:


Here is a little peak inside the writing/recording process. I really really really wanted to share this song with you, but I also want to make it a lot more dynamic. Consider this a demo and know that a full version will be coming soon. I'm gonna need a little help from my friends.

Catch up with the progress here:

My fondest dream has been a simple life cherishing the small things.
What else could I need?
Then I start to think... in a world that now believes it's all or nothing
How can I compete?

Changing - all the leaves are changing - colors quite amazing
It's autumn in America.
Piles - I can see for miles - don't be in denial
It's autumn in America.

If one busy bee hides most the honey from the rest of his own colony
there will be a swarm of bees.
Look to the trees. See how the earth likes to grow everything most naturally
Then you will surely see

Changing - all the leaves are changing - colors quite amazing
It's autumn in America.
Piles - I can see for miles - don't be in denial
It's autumn in America.

Learn the language of the winter's wind
Don't let it cut and shut you in
There are stories to be told
Find your warmth in community
Share in the prosperity
Springtime will unfold

Here Right Now (Wedding Song)

Video:


I've had the honor of seeing some beautiful couples get hitched this past year and got me to thinking and getting all bleary-eyed--so I wrote this song and perform it now for those who believe in love.

Yes, this counts as your wedding gift. :)

When I arrived in the big city
I knew there was some magic here for me
what was to happen I never would believe
you're lovelier than all my dreams

When we met people filled the streets
shining brightly and dancing to a beat
when men are burning to meet their destiny
I know I'll have met mine

Here right now say you'll be a part of me
I give my vow for you to keep
Say you'll be a part of me

Sunflower

Video:


Here's a simple one-take performance of a song I wrote many years ago when I lived in upstate New York. I figured now would be a good time to share it with the release of Nice Peter's Sunflower Song and Mary Doodles' inspired painting ( link coming soon ). You can see another painting Mary Doodles did using this Sunflower as her backing track here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GM-nFKA3Aq8

Thank you for your patient eyes and ears.

I've Got a Girl and she loves that tune
we've got a past of sneaking into
each other's rooms.

We hardly kiss. We hide it good.
but my sheets and my pillows
they know the truth.
They see how I'm kissing you.
Do you want some truth?
I've already started missing you.

There are so many more things to find
but I found so much in such little time
in a place like this
way up here in the altitude
in a town next to nothin' I found you.
I found you.

She's got a touch so sweet and smooth
an innocent look that does not allow
me to move

She's so colorful
She lights up a room
She's been giving me gifts without even knowing it.
Can I please give you this?

Cause now I am knowing it.
I've got a good thing to miss.

There are so many more things to find
but I found so much in such little time
in a place like this
way up here in the altitude
a sunflower grows and has been in full bloom
I'll be missing you.

Oh please, let me keep my sunflower
Oh please leave me asleep with my sunflower
There is no need to weep, my sunflower.

I've Got a Girl and she loves that tune
we've got a past and maybe a future too
I'll be missing you.

This video took much too long to do. It's kind of "me" in a frantically animated nutshell. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for staying close.

There's a spot on my wall
Look long enough it becomes a rolling ball
headed down an endless hall

When I arrive into the streets
I swim around the air we all try to breathe
Find me when I'm oceans deep

I'm a space cadet for life
free and floating - daydream roaming
I'm your space cadet tonight
float away with me

Often times, I must retreat
I find myself sitting at a window seat
watching the wind lift leaves

Other times, well I... I can't relate
So I piss and moan and bitch
and blame the world for why I'm always LATE
Why am I always late?

I'm a space cadet for life
free and floating - daydream roaming
I'm your space cadet tonight
float away with me

There were times when I was not myself
Aw no...
I saw your eyes light up for someone else
Oh....

You're the girl I've been trying to meet.
Runnin' round my head so baby letmaeoraofme seat
Sweepin' you off of your feet.

I'm a space cadet for life
free and floating - daydream roaming
I'm your space cadet tonight
all the liezons with new horizons
I'm a space cadet for life
free and floating - daydream roaming
I'm your space cadet tonight
float away with me
