Dear Michael, I know that you haven't been able to do a T-Pain friday in a while, but (if it is at all possible) I would really like to see a T-Pain song next Friday. I will be finished with my finals, and T-Pain seems like the best way to celebrate!

Thanks so much for the message! You’re right, it’s been quite a while since we’ve put one out, mostly because Danny no longer lives in Nashville and is constantly touring and I’ve been keeping up with my own tour schedule…

… but, we’ve have been concocting plans to attempt a remote T-Pain Friday for some time now, and I can’t think of a better time.  I’ll see what we can come up with!  [Danny Young, this means you!]

All the best,
Michael 



I’ve been mulling over a few different post ideas to fill between my Song-A-Week posts, and I was wondering which one you guys would rather see first.  Let me know in the poll below or fill in your own suggestion if you’ve got a great idea.

Thanks in advance!

I’m in the process of designing a whole slew of great Tshirts, my friends… some with photos, some with lyrics on them, and I’m having a hard time deciding what’s good.
So, I thought, who better to ask about cool shirts than you?
So, links, photos, descriptions, anything you’ve got, I want to see. 
What are your favorite types of shirts?

What inspires you?

Jackson Browne, He-Man, Kittens, my friends with children, Green Mountain Coffee, e.e. cummings, Fear, people picking themselves up from failure…

I suppose the real question to this one would be “What doesn’t inspire you?”… because honestly, I take inspiration from nearly everything around me. If you listen to my music, you can tell pretty quickly that a lot of my writing originates from matters of the heart, and I think that’s a common theme most of us can relate to… but they all start somewhere different.

I just wrote a song about my crazy cat last week. Perhaps I’ll post it here soon. For now, I’ll leave you with her saying hello.

Thanks for the question!

Tell me your hopes and dreams, I'll make them a song.

This is the beginning of a “Song-A-Week” idea I’ve been toying with for a while.  Let’s call this a dirty demo run :)

Tell me whatever’s on your mind. Anon’s accepted.  I’ll write a song about it, and post one a week.

Try me.
