I wish for you a life well lived
I pray that you will find your way
And with companions by your side
To laugh and dance and talk and play
inlandviews, Light Among The Stars, 2007
I write music in the folk blues genre. I currently reside in Victoria, BC, Canada close to the ocean from which much of my music is inspired. I have been uploading my original songs on to You Tube and have received a warm response from other singer/songwriters.
"Really a nice work man! The lyrics remind me to some work of Springsteen on Nebraska or The ghost of Tom Joad...
I really liked the solo, it sounds a little like the ones of "Creedence clear water revival",
the combination of the two makes the song really original".
"Comin' up here to listen to some of your good stuff, inlandviews...
this has an old Celtic feel to it.....just love it.....what beautiful haunting lyrics too....
this is definitely a five star song". :)
"Your a poet with a guitar. I'm enjoying your posts".
"Great job on this song and video, I am really impressed.
You are inspiring as a songwriter. I love the fact you used a cardboard bass for your drum,
it sounded great.
If I could rate more then 5-stars I would".
I play acoustic and electric guitar. The vocal work is true with no electronic pitch tweaking.
Years and years ago I was reading a book by J. Krishnamurti, an Indian philosopher, I much recommend, and one of the things he said was to find out what you love and then do that no matter what. I thought on that and wondered about it over decades (literally, I kid you not) and only a couple of years ago did I realize I was already doing what I loved!
Music in all its' variety and beauty can touch the soul and give us, if only for a moment, a glimpse of true freedom.
Namaste
