This all started with four brothers who grew up during the 60's, 70's and 80's. We used to have special names for ourselves but in all honesty we are all too old for that now. Tommy Lee and I started goofing off with music a long time ago. It was fun.
I met Sam along this journey and Sam and I spent wonderful stoned nights together playing and recording music in my apartment in Plain City, Ohio. We called ourselves TheWhsiperKings.
Tommy Lee, Patrick Sean and I also goofed off playing music off and on and then out of nowhere we had three magical weekends in Patrick's barn where we played and recorded music. We also used my brother Tim's lyrics on some of the songs.
Most of the music on this site were first take recordings because, well even though we loved music our lives kept getting in the way, you know, normal life, like marriages, divorces, car crashes, nervous breakdowns, etc.
Thank you so much for coming to our music blog and spending some time with us.
Homeless guy on the bus was written many, many years ago. It is a semi factual story of when I lived in Columbus, Ohio. I was struggling with homelessness and trying to get my life back together.
I would ride COTA bus around sometimes just to have a place to sit down and be warm. I fell asleep one night and the bus driver threw me off the bus because I got, well in his opinion out of control.
This is my daughter's favorite song of mine. She saw in this song the struggles that her dad went through but she also caught the tongue-in-cheek lyrics of the song.
Life dishes out what it will sometimes and we just have to be paying attention. Sometimes I just wasn't paying attention.
This is for you Alyssa...
Dad
