Alcohol Suntan

An original tune I wrote a few years back with John Caputo called, “Alcohol Suntan.” It’s not quite the electric version, but just as fun to play and sing.

Think, Sip, Write: ep 68 live chat with Tony Bruno and Miss Robin Austin

The long overdue return of #thinksipwrite has arrived. This season we are chatting during quarantine with some well known guests. First up are no strangers to the sports world. From the studio of the Tony Bruno Show to ours at home we chat with Tony Bruno and Miss Robin Austin about isolation, food, and of course sports.

Don Henley’s “Boys of Summer”

Being all couped up in the house I’m sure has everyone looking forward to a hopefully COVID free summer. I always blast this song with the windows down on a nice day. Figured I’d do my own little arrangement of the Don Henley classic and see how it goes. If the video doesn’t work embedded, then click the link.

Tom Petty’s “Free Fallin'”

I remember seeing Tom Petty in concert during the late nineties. It was a time when I was going through a few issues of my own and music really got me through it all safely. I decided to cover Free Fallin’ in the hopes that it’ll get you all past this crazy time and to where we can resume some sense of normalcy.

“Tears”

One of my original instrumentals written a few years back.  I’m beginning to post some of my songs as well as covers during this pandemic.  I hope everyone is staying healthy and safe.  We will get through it.  Enjoy the music.

One way to deal with quarantine and boredom

I hope everyone is staying as safe and cautious as possible.  I know being confined and having limitations is something that takes time to adjust to, so for those of you who like a good read, my ETERNAL HUNGER SAGA is FREE on Amazon digital through this coming Monday.

Of course you can buy it in print too, but we are all struggling, so I hope you have some time to read a good book or 12!  Yes, this is the entire series in one collection.  12 novels, 12 spinoff shorts and extra bonuses.
