Music Archive

A collection of personally important songs and recordings. Bands I played in, friends' bands that deserved more attention, rare live recordings, and random moments captured in audio.

01 Breath Weapon

A punk band I did with some friends. This is "Kill Vampires" - a tongue-in-cheek punk anthem about, well, killing vampires.

Kill Vampires

02 - Up On Love
03 - Otis Redding

05 - Friends

04 Matt Jones

A good friend of mine who recorded what I think is one of the most beautiful love songs. And no one's really ever heard it.

Say

05 Whatevs

Another local band we played with a lot. I always liked their cover of "Misunderstood".

Misunderstood (Cover)

06 Personal Recordings

Things I recorded myself. Some polished, some very much not.

The Book of Love (for Davy's Wedding)

A recording I did for my buddy Davy for his wedding.

J2

A song about a girl from forever ago.

Fistful of Lightning

A prototype song for Raptors Away that I never quite got figured out. Just a janky GarageBand recording.

07 Captured Moments

Audio captured in the wild. Right place, right time, phone in pocket.

Sage Francis - Live at a Bookstore

A recording I got on my phone of Sage Francis from a tiny local show in a bookstore in Long Beach.

Subway Poet

A recording I got of a random guy while we were waiting for the Red Line in Los Angeles who dropped some crazy truth and poetry on us.
