Desperate times call for desperate actions. The Supreme Court struck down women's right to direct their own health and I responded with this track. These are desperate times. Making it illegal to take care of a woman's health won't stop…

Latchkey Generation is my call to the younger generations. I'm a Slacker with a message and only hope to have some effect.

I wrote this song as a way to give voice to the frustration and utter sadness gun violence in America causes today, It's a complete failure to the school children and young adults in our society. We need a change…

S.P.I.C.E. was born at a dinner with my friends and colleagues. We had some specific things to work through and it was very cathartic to come up with and acronym for what was ailing us. I had just started making…

I've been spending time taking some classes in mixing and mastering and remixing. I'm brewing up some new releases soon. 

• S.P.I.C.E. is a song that was inspired and created by an amazing group of women from my life.

I wanted to compliment and complement the book Meme Wars, because it feels like a very important work to help people understand and have more awareness about why digital literacy is important to our ability to participate in our democracy…

Who are we? What are we accountable for? We know too much. Are we doing enough? It's a time of opportunity and a time of redemption. Is it real or is it just a simulation. Either way we let this…

I wanted to honor Bob Barker. I felt a connection to him. We were both born in South Dakota. I also really appreciated his calm and steady presence in my life personally through his hosting of The Price is Right.…

The hook for this song, 'I am the Squeaky Wheel, I get the grease...' was inspired by a conversation I had. It was a very positive squeak in that case. The narrator of this track turned out to be a…

This one is an homage and an acknowledgement. Every revolution gets co-opted. It all feels free at first and then it eventually feels like a trap. We are dreaming and we are screaming all at the same time.

This song started from a bass sound. I channeled that vibe into a story. It was my opportunity to think about what I would tell people of the next generation based on what I've learned. 

The inspiration for this was the Ray Bradbury story, All Summer in a Day. The song narrator is the hero. She's been put in this terrible position, but she's determined to find the truth without hating the people who…

This song was a fun experiment with words. Similes of happiness. It's filled with random and nostalgic elements from my whole life that assemble a collage that gives me deep and layered happiness. It's about moments of joy. I hope…

Bullies have been on the rise in recent years and personally I've had enough of this behavior. I'm the kind of person that know we have more resources in America then we act like and I don't think some people…

This track is full of memory about growing up and living in the Midwest and irrationally fearing the tornadoes that would come through every summer. A child's mind can twist up things in ways we don't predict. It's also full…

In America, our vote is our power. It might seem archaic, slow, irrelevant....etc. But do not let anyone trick you into thinking that. It is OUR POWER. The vote is the power of the people. We deserve the right to…

Hasn't it always seemed a little suspicious to you that Cabot Cove, the hometown of Jessica Fletcher, had so many murders? The town population was ​3,560. The town had 268 murders during the 12 years of the show which would…

The Unauthorized Biography of Archers of Loaf is a tribute song to my favorite band. I love the detuned nature of their sound art and another one of the reasons they are my favorites is that after years and years,…

When my dog was a puppy, he would freak out by scratching a very specific rug. It made such a specific and interesting sound, I recorded it and sampled it. I would also soothe him and tell him, 'Don't Freak…
