Jeremy Withers
“Atmospheric, textured, lovely, heartsick, textured, aching, gentle, moody, melodic, layered. Such a perfect balance of acoustic heartbreak and atmospheric noise.”

Wagner Koop
“This is a god damn beautiful album. The sound is so minimalistic, and very powerful at the same time.”

  • Explorations HAND-MADE EDITION

    If anyone has been to any of my shows in the past 6 months or so, you may have noticed a merch table with what looks like some old paper bag scraps laying on. Those were my CDs.

    *The CD you will receive will have more tracks than the current "Explorations" on Bandcamp. Some of the CDs might say "home recordings"... this is the same thing. I add the songs as I record them, so some might have more track than others.

    **I can do SPECIAL ART orders if you so desire at no extra charge!

    Includes immediate download of 5-track album in your choice of high-quality MP3, FLAC, or just about any other format you could possibly desire.

about

A collection of tunes that I did everything on my own on. A collection of tunes that explore various sounds and methods and feelings.
A collection of tunes that have become a "collection of tunes".

Track Name: foreverandeverandever
into the sunrise like before
hope for tomorrow nevermore
time is taking hold of our loneliness and more
into the sunrise like before

fear isn't always what it seems
i hope for strength and misery
there is nothing left here but a dream
time is going no where in between

forever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever again
forever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever again
Track Name: In Two
in two, in two it was over, in two it was done
into, i tried to make sense of it, i tried not to linger on

and too, too many trials, too many hidden faults
it drove through the sounds

until these pains are over now
until these pains are over now

into, into a division, outside the soul
in two, the oceans divided, but came back again to be one
into a high cut mountain with surrounding air toxically clean

until these pains are over now
until these pains are over now
Track Name: Out Of Tune Piano
my heart beats like an out of tune piano
my heart beats like an out of tune piano
my heart beats like an out of tune piano
my heart beats like an out of tune piano

what if we were, what if we were lovers?
and what if i were, what if i were a fighter?
would we wait for the sun to rise again?

i think my body is working against me
i've got a diagnosis for my memory
and it's not looking good around here
it's not looking too good round here

the radio says i am a frequency
my radio says i got no decency
left in my heart so to speak
left in my heart so to speak

how can we, how can we possibly,
find and escape to this catastrophe?

tell me again, where are you going?
tell me again, are we friends?
you're hiding out in the currency
going from pocket to palm
Track Name: Hold On To My Love
it was an evening song
it was the summer dawn
that brought me into your arms
and would hold all night long

it was a breezy night
i saw the red and white
it was such an eerie sight for both
my head and my heart
for both my head and my heart

you've gotta hold on to my love
you've gotta hold on to our love
we've gotta hold on to our love

we're growing farther
apart than ever
there is no future
when the past is over

i've tasted beauty
and i clutched it tightly
but that's not what's important to you
it's security
to you it's security

you've gotta hold on to my love
we've gotta hold on to our love
we couldn't hold on to our love
