FOOT PRINTS

[intro]

Tiny little footprints,
made from
tiny little feet.

Hiding
in the trees.

Tiny little footprints,
made from
tiny little feet.

Hiding
in the leaves.

Tiny little footprints,
made from
tiny little feet.

You're getting
sleepy.
You're getting
sleepy.
You're getting
sleepy.
Put on your
jammies.

[break]

Tiny little footprints,
made from
tiny little feet.

Hiding
in the trees.

Tiny little footprints,
made from
tiny little feet.

You're getting
sleepy.
You're getting
sleepy.
You're getting
sleepy,
in her belly.

[solo...]

Tiny little footprints,
made from
tiny little feet.

You're getting
sleepy.
You're getting
sleepy.
 You're getting
sleepy.
You're getting
sleepy.

Tiny little footprints,
made from
tiny little feet.

You're getting
sleepy.
You're getting
sleepy.
 You're getting
sleepy.
You're getting
sleepy.

BROTHER SONGS

This is a collection of
what I think are my better works

some of my first songs
ever recorded.
Shows my progression
to keyboard and

has evolved.
As well as my range.

by similarities, location or time period.
Excluding Vibes and Heat,
which stand alone.

ONE MONTH

So it has been close to
a month since my last post..
so sad.

Things I will try very hard to post this week:
New photos

and of new clothes Kris and I purchased.
New EP from March entitled 'Mature Fruit'.
Image of my newly designed
wedding invites and announcements.

MARCH 21ST JAM SESSION

Late night jamming with
Thom and Brauk.

Brauk stood up in the corner
with his electric,
enclosed next to the dresser,
where he set his brew, pork rinds and gummies.

Thom sat on his amp,
armed with either his electric or acoustic,
tapping his foot on his kid's tambourine.

I sat on the floor,
Thom's keyboard in my lap
with my pedals just a stretch away.
Cords were all over the floor
going through my mac
splitting off into two amps.

Daydream: 
Very short clip of what we created out of something totally different.
Then recorded short snippet of what we played.
Brauk on electric, Thom on vox, Aaron on keys/vox.

Jason (Take 1):
Faster version of a song I wrote over a year ago and have never recorded.
Aaron on acoustic/Thom on drums/noises/vox; Brauk on electric.

Jason (Take 2): 
Longer, slower version of 'Jason' with a tiny jam at the end.

Take a listen.
