Played this #originalsong in a local cafe recently and some kind folks in the audience *insisted* that I must record and post it.
Maybe my own little emotional crisis in a local grocery store will resonate–this is my original song about “Crying In the Kimberton Whole Foods."
(KWF is a local, family-owned independent chain, and no relation to the Amazon-owned behemoth. Buy local, cry local!)

From 1973, one of those songs that just evokes a specific time and place for me. This is Jim Croce's "One Less Set of Footsteps."

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!

Haven't done a Sunday Song in a while, but here's one to close out the year: The Raconteurs' "You Don't Understand Me," rendered on #ElectricUke through an amp modeler pedal.

Okay, it's no longer Sunday, but I forgot to post my #SundaySong, so here it is – a lowkey acoustic version of The Only Ones' "Another Girl, Another Planet." Have always loved this song but never thought it could work on a #uke until hearing an acoustic version in the movie "London Town" – which is also highly recommended.

Can't believe I've never posted a version of Cracker's "Big Dipper" before. This was one I struggled with mightily when first learning to play and sing, but for whatever reason it enchants me and I come back to it again and again. Non-minimalist approach here, with some layering in #AbletonLive. Sorry, the reverb is dripping. Maybe it'll be dry by next week.

Digging out the Country Joe and the Fish tunes lately. For this week's Sunday Song, I went with "Here I Go Again." Just live vocals and electric #uke.

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 was inspired by some first-time performers at #OpenMicNight who thought nothing of tackling a #MazzyStar song on their first outing – something that for some reason I thought daunting. But then I took up "Flowers in December" on the #ukulele, and whaddaya know? Not too bad, I think.

This week's #SundaySong is a very low-key effort, recovering from vacation as I am. This is a song by #CrackerBand called "Kerosene Hat."
