Well, if you are anything like me, I tend to run a lot more on inspiration than disclipline when it comes to the creative process. I have always been a bit lazy like that. My guitar has acted a lot like a best friend I run to sobbing because of heart break, confusion, disillusioment, or in joy and moments of gratitude. To be honest mostly lately I have just felt so busy all the time it is hard to carve out much time to pick up my ol guitar. So although I haven’t written many new songs lately it feels like a storm is brewing and some creative clouds could be on the horizon. So check the forecast and I’ll let you know if there is a chance of rain.
I’m really excited to hear that my brother Dave is heading back into town! He has been on a bit of a personal sabbatical for about 8 months now, reinventing himself down in Honduras. He has been writing a lot of material down there and I can’t wait to hear the new songs, poetry and amazing travel stories. Also I am very happy that he will be here while I am still cutting the record. He has given me the awesome chance to record backups on his records, and it would mean a tremendous amount to me if he could be on mine. I can’t wait to see what he will think of it! He has always been my hero- first because of that fact he’s my brother-and all my brothers are my heroes – but secondly he has led his life as a true artist. Constantly searching and inventing in his mind. Not just talking about it, being about it. Living the life that he believes is the only life worth living.
