Crunch This 4

OK kind of a silly song, but then I'm kind of a silly guy. This one is called "Crunch This 4". It's sort of a cross between Gary Moore and ZZ Top.

"70MPH" a work in progress...

This is still in progress - feels a little stretched out, like some of those measures could be shorter or somehow a little less repetitive. Any comments or suggestions are welcome...

Surf Agent

New tune, put together this evening. Been working a lot on some freelance artwork, and I just needed a bit of a breather and change of pace. I use a package called Riffworks to multitrack the songs together, and my strat goes into a piece of hardware called a Guitarport, made by Line6. The Guitarport has all the Line6 amp modeling abilities of their other products, like the PodXT and Vetta modeling amps. So convenient!

couple of tunes

I spend most of my time working as a freelance illustrator and concept artist. However, I have also been a musician for the last 30 years or so (eek I am dating myself). I played violin, like a lot of nerdy asian kids, for several years before graduating to guitar and bass.

So anyway, sometimes I fart around with some recording software and manage to put together some pieces of music - I hesitate to call them "songs."
