Various productions where I was involved as writer, performer, or non-combatant (per individual notes below)

(Concord Records) 2018 July Regarding 'Out Of The Blues', there are 3 marketing variations of this album: For the standard edition, I wrote 3 songs: Rock And Stick, Radiator 110, & Those Lies. I also cowrote Little Miss Night and Day with Boz. Then for the Target edition, I wrote the 2 bonus tracks: Good Information & 25 years. Finally, with the deluxe vinyl edition, the bonus 7 inch record, I wrote Jump. In summary, I wrote six and co-wrote one. Glad to be aboard.
