"Dakota" is one of my all-time favorite songs by The Stereophonics. I can't imagine a more perfect song. So, during the Quarantine of 2020, I called up my buddies: Brendangerous (bass), Seanarchist (keys) and Trentin Quarantino (guitar) to see if they would be down to track a version of this amazing Stereophonics song. They, obviously, obliged.
Wasted is a song by William Prince that I first heard on NPR All Songs Considered and it grabbed me immediately. I began recording this version of the song in quarantine while still living in Charleston but finally finished in The Spring of 2022 on a balcony in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
One of my goals for 2022 is to finish some of the things I started while quarantined in 2020. Here is one such project: The Shitsville USA Sessions.
The Other Side of South Carolina featured “It’s Not Business, It’s Just Personal” on its most recent playlist. Check it out along with a host of other great, South Carolina-based bands!

Time for me to get off the sideline and into the game.
This Thursday night, April 16th, at 8 PM ET, I will be performing The Unusual Suspects’ 2005 debut EP: Phonograph (and maybe a few B-sides & covers as well) on StageIt.com

It’s been a hell of a ride the last three years but, FINALLY, what started as a seed in January 2017 in Savannah, Georgia has now grown into a tree…
The Mourner’s Manual has arrived and I’m so excited to finally have it out there! Now that the record, the music, the presentation of it all is out of my hands…
The Mourner's Manual is finally here! Check out the brand new video for "Afterglow", shot by Ted Comerford in Savannah, Georgia:
