My Elegy

Absolutely crazy week. I literally had one hour to dedicate to a song and this was about all I could fit into that hour. The chord structure and melody was something I came up with a while back and am glad to have at least captured it somehow.

Recorded at home on an Mbox.

Nylon string guitar
Accordion
Lap steel

gorgeous. very decemberists, but more warm and inviting.

Oh man I absolutely heart this! Accordion ftw!

Beautiful. Amazing what can be achieved in an hour.

not gunna lie i was hoping to hear a four note song lol but this will do just fine.

I hope the studio rebuild is going well.  This is a great little tune!  I love the rhythmic pattern on the nylon.

this reminds me of something... cant quite put my finger on it.  gj

smile I love this so much.  It gives me a warm feeling and reminds me a France or Italy (though I've never been )

I'm literally smiling right now smile 

Beautiful as fuck.

nice!
