A cover of Jefferson Airplane's Today, done on electric uke with chorus, U-bass, and a little asalato in the mix somewhere. One of my favorite songs to sing, and yet I haven't done it as a #sundaysong before!

For my #SundaySong this week, I did a quick cover of Hooverphonic's "Gravity," with just #ukulele and #kalaubass. Bit of work in #AbletonLive too.

My #SundaySong is going up on Saturday this week for reasons. This is a stripped down version of a Kurt Weill/Ogden Nash song told from the point of view of a statue of Venus that has come to life in the modern era. From the #musical "One Touch of Venus," this is "I'm A Stranger Here Myself."

New #uke, who dis? Plays and sounds very different from my others, and I am not yet used to it, but I had a new way of doing Michael Nesmith's "Nine Times Blue" that I was determined to squeak out on this beautiful archtop, so here it is, warts and all. Also laid in some #kalaubass if you listen closely enough.

When I performed #Cracker's "Been Around The World" at #openmic this week I started it in a voice and tempo I'd never even thought of before, and found myself locked in and liking it. I can't quite capture the energy I felt with that sound booming out into the room, but this isn't a bad approximation either. Added some #KalaUBass and guess what? One take on that. Having a good week with this song!

This was NOT the song I set out to complete this morning – in fact, I had a much more elaborate project going on around this one. And then my brain said, "Yeah, but what if...." So here's a recently rediscovered Amanda Palmer song that suddenly captivated me. This is "In My Mind."
Make some art today!

Most weeks I post a quick little #SundaySong to my Instagram and FB accounts, and sometimes I remember to share them here as well. The point is to put it out there, whether it's "good," finished or not. This didn't end up quite as I wanted it to, and it's a bit slower than I wanted, but it's a cover of Country Joe & The Fish's "Flying High."

The holiday season can be especially rough for those in recovery or trying to be. I'm not sure how my singing Aimee Mann's "I Was Thinking I Could Clean Up For Christmas" could possibly help, but that's what I've done.
I had fun banging the strings on my #KalaUBass for a bass effect most people will never hear.

My #SundaySong this week is a low-effort cover of The #Weakerthans' "Plea From A Cat Named Virtute." So sad but uplifting at the end, I promise!
Vocals and keys live as shown, my trusty #KalaUBass layered in with #AbletonLive .

Every week I record and post a #SundaySong – as a super late blooming performer, just putting myself out there is as big a challenge as anything. This is my cover of #Hooverphonic's "Mad About You."
Keys and vocals recorded live; bass and bass effects added in #AbletonLive

This week's #SundaySong is Blondie's "Dreaming," which I've lately been trying a few different ways. This started with just me and my trusty U-Bass, and this morning I decided to add some electric uke. Some really electric uke.
As someone who's only been playing for a few years, a real late bloomer, it's still incredible to me that I can just DO this.

This week's #SundaySong is a spooky little piece by Cracker, "Dr. Bernice." I don't know why, I just love singing this one.
I recorded the vocals and #uke live, then added #KalaUBass and a little synthesizer B3 in #AbletonLive.

This week's #SundaySong is Reina del Cid's "What I'm Losing," a song about life on the road and priorities. I usually do this on piano but have been quite taken with it on #ukulele lately. Added in some #KalaUBass because that's what I do.

Joining this instance to share and find other #musicians. I'm a beginner, and post songs most Sundays.
This week's #SundaySong is one I've tried to do since I started singing and playing four years ago. Turns out what I needed to make it work was this year's Christmas present to myself, a beautiful #Kala #ElectricUkulele. There's some #KalaUBass layered underneath this as well.
This is Cracker's "Big Dipper."

Reposting this #SundaySong I did around Thanksgiving – a cover of Dar Williams' "End of the Summer," shot with live vocals and keys, and a little bit of #KalaUBass added after the fact.
This is one of those #songs that just hits me somehow, and when I first started singing it, I had a hard time getting through it. This may be the best my vocals have ever been on this one.
