“Shake Stuff Up” is a 4 song EP that’s all about enjoying the journey of life, even when life’s not perfect, making the most of what we can, while we can. Links to the music and music videos, along with my thoughts behind each song are below:)
This title song is a driving blues-rock that pays respect to the elders who influenced my life and advised me to pursue my passions and interests “before you’re too damn old”. available on Spotify and other major streaming platforms. See and hear the music video on YouTube!
Hippy Turning 50 (and 60, and 70)
Raising kids, building a career, and “figuring out life” is heavy-lifting. The load gets lighter and this cover song shares a window into the 50, 60, and 70 year thresholds. Hippy Turning 50 is available now on Spotify and other major streaming platforms. Watch the YouTube Music Video!
I wrote Surf's Edge" when visiting the Oregon coast this August, as 118-degree inland temperatures, Covid, and raging wildfires were consuming people's attention. I’ve combined beer, dogs, and beaches into a reggae vibe that encourages listeners to escape life’s pressures … by enjoying simple pleasures. Surf’s Edge is available now on Spotify and other major streaming platforms. See and hear the music video on YouTube
A Northwest Thing
I wrote this song as a soft country-rock tribute, applauding the recent late-life marriage of an old friend, and the resulting joy he and his lady have found from making the most of life during this difficult period in history. A Northwest Thing is available now on Spotify and other major streaming platforms.
