Bio

Ukulele Obsessed. I live in Denver and know way too much about coffee.

I've won FAWM and 50/90 in 2009, 2010 and 2011. Before that I'd written one song. I love the FAWM community.

Going to finish a symphony this year:

February was mean this year, so I wrote 15 arpeggio studies for ukulele instead of finishing my symphony:

Thanks for your comment on 'The Sun through the Clouds' Gary

Thank you for the comment! It's flattering that you think our rapping is good enough to be a timeless classic - though I'm afraid without the dalek reference we would never have discovered this hidden talent at all

Hiya Gary
Thanks for the comments on "Lose Myself" "Orchid" and "Midnught Rain". I appreciate the tips re mixing levels -I'm totally making this up so I'll have another look at them.
"few years"? This is only my second FAWM, I've done 2 50/90s... Im pretty happy with how I'm going, songwriting wise. Reall like FAWM and 50/90 for letting me experiment.
On chord choices, would you like if I included the chords somewhere? Lat few songs have been a little jazzy-influenced...

Whoa, a symphony, cool and with a timely subject matter, vamp-wise.

Gary, there's been a few posting from CO. Any idea on how to correct intonation on a cheap uke? I'm about ready to file the nut slots to get the strings down closer to the fretboard.
