about

This was my first adventure into recording when I moved back to Nashville in the 90s. These were the demos that were forgotten until this past year. I love getting to revisit and listen - they aren't perfect and I can't tell you every musician that played on the songs. I just remember the Summer of '96 being loud and fun. There is a cover version of Suzanne Vega's song Luka that is included as a bonus.

This album is raw and was recorded mostly on analog. The songs range from garage to grunge to pop-punk sprinkled with plenty of cheese from the 90s.

This album was 100% recorded in 1996 (although it prob wasn't finished until Winter of '96 and that's not a fun name) - no edits/no remixes. We did a small bit of mastering to even the levels. This is the first time these songs have been released.

Thanks for listening and reliving some of my rock and roll fun.
