Common Threads That Bind

My entry to the 2011 Tumbleweed Music Festival Songwriting Competition, which had the theme of Common Thread. I place just out of the finalist, being named the Alternate (or best of the losers?) but I was invited to perform the song at the festival’s closing concert!

 

Assisi

This is a song about lasting friendships.

Nine Miles up the Skokomish

A love song to my wife Martha and one of our favorite activities

Moonshiner
traditional tune I learned from Uncle Tupelo and Redbird
