Slow Motion (Instrumental)
Slow Motion (Instrumental)
I remember my first two children playing at the park. Embracing that moment made me realize how fast time goes by. Knowing that they'll someday be adults made me ponder, and wish, that time would go in slow motion; just for a while.

Never Look Back (90’s instrumental)
Never Look Back (90’s instrumental)
Wrote this in the 90's. Complete experimentation. I soon discovered that I didn't have chops like I had hoped. Fun just the same.

Intrigue Ext Version (90’s instrumental)
Intrigue Ext Version (90’s instrumental)
Another 90's experimental song I wrote. Big influence from a new band I discovered called Dream Theater. I'm sure the listener will hear the spots that are similar.
