We are the Millennium Falcon of studios. She’s not much to look at, but she’s got it where it counts. Plus, many heroic musical stories have already been set in her walls. It’s a great time to start a new project!

Just out, now! This is the first of an ongoing project of resistance to the rise of Fascism in the USA. Back again, though we hoped we wouldn't have to.

Michigan Music Resistance, John Finan, Terry Birkett, Bobby Pennock, Sharon Tse, Kandy Fredrick Music, Amy Fong-Kretzmer, Paul Kretzmer, Mike Rupprecht, Wolf Tytschkowski are all part of this track. Produced by David Roof at Rooftop Recording

We're raising money for the ACLU with all proceeds raised from this. Please share widely, and enjoy. Solidarity, community, resistance!

We SHALL overcome hate and division. Together.

Dan Gerics played 2 sessions here over the weekend. I love the way this captures the feel of the day with a rough mix of the album under way. He is an amazing drummer for any gig or session need you may have. Lots of fun this last week! Thanks Dan!

2 different projects had to last minute cancel, and I have this Saturday and Sunday available for sessions. If you can use one of these times, please send me a message, text or email.

Thanks,
Dave

Just out from Dog Latin, and writer Chris McGorey.

BTW - BandCamp is the best way you can support an artist online. They share a much higher portion of proceeds directly back to the artist. Buy a download there, and you'll never have to be concerned about losing it with a streaming service going away!
