Beowulf Kingsley
Tom Waits and John Cage are mudwrasslin' in the pond while Dr. John stirs up a pot of gumbo on the bank. Burt Bacharach experiments with a 12-string guitar he borrowed from Carlos Jobim. The Eels look on approvingly, but stay well back in the bushes. Meanwhile, out in the woods, Petula Clark and Cthuhlu plot to take over the world.
Sunshine On The Snow
I find it interesting when I’m working on an album, and adding and subtracting songs, trying to figure out what’s supposed to be going on…and then it’s like the project comes to life and starts shaping itself into something I didn’t expect, but that I like much better than my original ideas. This is one of those. As usual, it’s all over the map in terms of genres; Celtic Pop, New Wave, Swing, Hard Rock, Psychedelic Ballad…and more. I think, considering that, it hangs together pretty well. I like it, anyway! And I hope you do too.

The Luck Of The Draw
Perhaps this album is a bit darker than some of the previous ones, but it had to be done. Darker songs for darker times. Appropriate for a 13th solo record, I guess. Still, I think it has some of my best songs on it, and you may find something here you connect to as well. I confess that I never actually know what I'm doing until the whole of the project starts taking shape…I was surprised by this one, but I feel like it's important personal work, and I hope you can relate to some of it. Step inside my head. Don't mind the spiders and the ichor, it's all part of the ambiance.

Falling Stars & Rising Tides
I still love doing this, and I hope you like it, too! Some songs here about Graveyards, Cats, Anti-Gravity Pants, Evil Doctors, Rainbows and Tornadoes, many featuring microtonal stringed instruments played with sliding devices. The overall tone seems to be hopeful and positive...which probably means my next one will be really dark! But you never can tell. I had fun making this, and perhaps it will amuse you as well. If it does, please contact me and let me know! I'd like that.
