I think that many an artist has squeezed his/her misery until something beautiful flows out, and that's what was going on when I wrote this. I didn't particularly enjoy the heartbreak, but I'm very proud of the song and the recording.

Happy and Musical
Here are some songs written, performed, recorded by me in my humble (and humbling) home studio. I play all sorts of stuff, from ornery rock to children’s music and love it all. This is a selection of a few singer-songwriter-ish stuff and acoustic instrumentals. Listen, enjoy. After a very short time as a sound click artist, I was pleasantly shocked to see that people have listened to the music. Some even downloaded it. Sharing my music is exactly what I was hoping to do, but I was still pretty surprised to think that total strangers might be enjoying my songs, so, thanks! Please leave even a short note so that I can know who is listening in and I can bring the process full circle by listening to the music you are making, too. Kip

Story behind the song
It was September, and it was raining constantly. I was in a new city, working at a new job, missing my friends, and I’d stand out in that rain waiting for a bus that took me to a job that didn’t pay squat: absolutely everything was miserable. In the years previous I had done a hundred beautiful things and I was just heartbroken to find that life wasn’t shaping up like I wanted it to. I think that many an artist has squeezed misery hard enough that something beautiful runs out of it, and so that’s what I did. I really like the song, the job turned out to be okay, and I’m back to being a fairly happy guy. I wouldn’t say it was worth it, but it’s a good song. That’s me on my Guild F50R playing acoustic into a condensor mic on the main track and through a mag pick-up on the slide (with some auto-wah.) The harmonica is me too, just a normal Honer blues harp.
