Here's a demo of a song I wrote / recorded on a mini digital Sony IC Recorder in my living room a few weeks ago...I think the lyrics / meaning are pretty self explanatory but I was really shooting for Phillip Phillips / Hunter Hayes / John Mayer

This song is about the stuggle to deal with changes in life. I was really going through a rough point when I wrote this but I also think it brought out my inner songwriter. Melancholy can produce some great material sometimes.

I wrote this song a few years ago, back when I first started getting into songwriting. It's the only song I've written about a past situation, it's about my parent's divorce when I was thirteen and still picking up pieces of the broken home.

The CD player in my van broke this summer so I listened to more of the radio than I had since probably high school. It wasn't as grueling as I thought it'd be, I think it's helped influence my songwriting a bit. I tried to make this a decent pop song

This song was inspired by an unknown man I once noticed in passing last winter. He was alone, sitting isolated and coatless on the swingset of a nieghborhood park in my hometown. This song I wrote from what might have been his perspective that day.

Boy meets girl, boy writes song for girl. When I tell her I love her, there's a kind of mutual strength and vulnerability in it. I tried to play these emotions off of one another. It's the first love song I've ever written.
