Me In A Nutshell

|
husband, father, teacher, gamer
guitar playin’ music maker
Not too bad at playin’ shaker
always try and tip my waiter
Fallout, Minecraft, Stardew Valley
Fortnite, Skyrim, in my galley
PS4 and Switch and Steam
All of these my favorite things
Making music for my friends
Songs I sing that never end
I can’t seem to stop the flow
that’s why I made my studio
Silly songs that make no sense
Rockin’ tunes that are so dense
Heartfelt ballads, hidden gems
I just can’t stop writing them
CHORUS
Bm - E
Some people think that I am crazy
A-A7
my brain’s all over the place
and when it looks like I am lazy
Or that my heads in outerspace
Bm
even if i’m a bit cracked
E
because I stumble or fell
A
I got no regrets
Bm
I lived to tell the tale
E - - - - -A/A7
I hope you are doin’ well
D
that’s me in a nutshell
VERSE 2
Grew up in a Christian church
Christian college, Christian merch
In a bubble, in the lurch
Now I think that bubbles burst
i think i’ll still talk to God
take some time out with my squad
reevaluate my thoughts
not toss it all, but still take a walk
Black lives matter, so do you
Jesus Christ and Buddha too
to the bottom of my soul
I just want to be made whole
Conversations from the heart
crying when I see great art
empathy from every vein
but not immune to feeling shame
Harry Potter, Star Wars too
Lego animation crew
Ninjas, pirates, basketball
I’m not sure I got it all

There's nothing about this record that isn't pure art. Sonically, artistically, poetically excellent. Check it out now.

Songs from a Moon
by Jaron Eldon
If you like Wilco's Summerteeth and can appreciate the talent and skills of Jon Brion then there's no way you won't like Jaron's latest album.

Make Believe
by Tomorrow is Already Here
Garret is as adept at mixing sounds as he is at playing them together in beautiful, swirling counterpoints. His latest album is a sound to behold. Highly recommended.
