The following is an excerpt from the second track, Punkie and the Spitfires.
It's a song about a three-piece band - perhaps the ultimate band - who save the world!

I've always been interested in ways to express ideas and emotions through music. As a kid I would write my own lyrics to popular songs. As I learned to play trumpet I would create my own melodies. As I became interested in singing I began to learn more about chord progressions. By the time I was in college I started to get more serious about trying to compose and arrange - turns out it was hard! I attended the Grove School of Music and Dick Grove's teachings would provide me with a solid foundation and I'm still building upon that and continue to learn with every new song, composition or arrangement.
New post to my #YouTube community: New #Music, a #JamMan #Looper #Librarian update, #PruneStack update for #MuseScore, some nostalgia, photos, links, dogs, cats, living together - it's all there (not really!)
I updated my #JamMan Classic Looper Manager to use .NET Core 7 and made some minor UI changes. More minor changes to come, but wanted to make sure this #OpenSource tool still works and it does!
Some more minor changes needed for #Accessibility and clearer instructions for installing, but there are only like 10 (maybe?) people in the entire world who use this tool, including me!

Does anyone else do "Now" pages? I just updated mine. Nothing epic and mostly personal, but it's sort of the humble "now": https://www.birdwellmusic.com/now/ - I seem to update them every six months of so... who has time to write the "now" when you're living it?
