About

I just heard about this challenge about a week ago. I love writing songs, but hate learning computer programs and the tedium of recording, as well as the vulnerability of sharing my work. Trying to get better about the last two things without sacrificing the first thing. It’s just me, a crappy guitar, and a simple voice recorder. It was fun to record whatever weirdness came out, and I hope you enjoy it.

Favourite Moment

I enjoyed the moment when I remembered how fun it was to write silly little songs again. Hoping this habit continues whether everyone likes it or not!

Advice

Just hit record and do your thing.
