Did You Know it was Raining?

Michael Hughes

Michael Hughes, Auburn, Maine. Original acoustic & electric music.

I worked as a musician for about ten years after I finished my BA in English lit, which didn't sound nearly as interesting at the time as playing music. After an enjoyable but wasted youth of bands, solo & studio work, ten thousand nights in clubs & lots of touring, three albums with David Mallett, and a few years as a music journalist and free lance editor, I saw the writing on the wall. I said goodbye to all that & began tea...

You Don't (Electric)

The Joe Mama Besser Band

Jamming, driving, kick ass music.

Old fashioned blues rock with a lot of jam thrown in.  People claim to love the blues but then the only blues they have ever heard is B.B.  The blues is as diverse as America and we need to play it all!
Also if you enjoy the written word I have written and published a book of poems called Happiness, Sorrow, Love, Anger; Thoughts and Musings.  If you are interested in purchasing my book it is available at the following links:

Fools...An Apologetic

Ron Gragg

Praise and worship of Jesus Christ in an Eclectic blend of acoustic and electric guitars. The words are from The Word and my Christian testimony of the struggle

Why do we do what we do, or believe what we believe? Some judge the materialistic as all there is. But, where does the beautiful painting of artistic expression in canvas, word, music and thought come from? From where do we derive altruistic love and feeling for one another? The materialistic explanations fall short of elucidation, le...
