I have been song writing for 7 years. What a great creative outlet!
I am songwriter. I very reluctantly sing.

I can play keyboards, fiddle and a little of this and that. I write using my primary instrument, the ukulele. I enjoy the process of songwriting. I love talking about it with other songwriters and really enjoy hearing about their journey.

My influences are varied from Irving Berlin to Pink. I am currently listening to a lot of Townes Van Zandt, Lucinda Williams, Taylor Swift, Lizzo, Sheryl Crow, Pink, Bernie Taupin, Yola, Brandi Carlisle, Billy Joel, and revisiting those Liverpool lads.

I hope to make the 14 song mark this year and wish everyone, except one of you, and you know who you are, constant joyful inspiration.

Thanks for checking out the lyrics to "Won’t Lose Finding You" -- I'm very much looking forward to figuring out how it sounds!

Hi Suzie, thanks for your encouraging comments on, not one but TWO of my songs, and "The Same (Version 2)" and "Shut the Front Door." I really appreciate them! I look forward to checking out some of your songs, very soon. --Andrew P.S. Not asking who "Except One of You" is, but I hope you got a song out of them!

Suzie, thank you SO much for your comment and your empathy for my situation regarding "A Blueish Sort Of Gray". The song sort of bubbled up and went through fits and starts while I was bicycling. I kept stopping to add something to my notes about it, even recording that opening melodic line when it came to my head. When I got home, I fleshed out the lyrics and the song came together.

Surely when you NEED to say something and say it through a song, everything seems to form very fast.

Thank you for your comments on Underwear. Definitely a 20s vibe—forgot we were in the same decade!

Thank you for you nice comments on my Cats Make Life Worth Living song!

Thanks for your comments on my lyrics for "Flaco the Eurasian Eagle Owl" -- I hope to be laying in some sea shanty melodies soon!

Thanks for listening to my songs, ukulele friend. Yup, piano, too. That was my first instrument and has been my therapist throughout my life. I've created a few instrumentals. This was the first to only use minor chords. I might have spoken lyrics for it.

Hi Suzie...thanks for allowing me to put some music to your fine words.
There are a couple of small tweaks that I made to fit what I had in mind, which I hope you think are okay.
