It feels like a lost classic that could've shown up on some of my favorite albums..” Lights Out: I really enjoyed this song! you have a really good song on your hands!There's a tried and true tradition of prison songs in folk music, but I think this one is beautiful and unique Dawn Over Denver: You have an obvious skill with lyrics! There were a lot of truly beautiful moments here and your rhyming choices felt really natural and satisfying. Your verses painted such a beautiful picture, I felt like I was like watching a movie. This is a beautiful song! My Grandfather's Hat : This is a great story and a great way to talk about the passing of time and things that get handed down with each generation. Cd’s: Old Highway New Sky, I Listen For the Train, Take My Coat
