Track List:

1. Lets Go-

This song started as a song I was writing with my friend and neighbor Jordan Tuzzeo, then I ventured to Alaska and felt inspired enough to finish it.

2. The Moon-

The first song I wrote that I liked enough to keep, I wrote this one while I was laying on my bed, looking at the full moon outside my window.

3. Swear You Wont Go-

Is about my dog Cowboy and when you listen to it, think about him singing it to me. I think this song was written by both of us.

4. Dads Song-

I wrote this song after my dad passed away, at first it sounded completely different, but when I decided to record it I changed the melody and chords to what it is now. We recorded this song on his birthday.

5. Stays The Same-

An award winning song, I entered into the Swallow Hill Teen Songwriting competition. Its about wishing things would change, but you also want them to stay the same.

6. All I can Do-

I wrote this short little song one afternoon at a friend’s house in Highlands Ranch.

7. Red Rocking Chair-

One of my favorite Old time tunes, also known as Sugar Babe.

8. A Friend-

This is a song about girls, and staying in the friend zone.

9. Lazy John-

Another old time tune, I first heard Bruce Molsky’s version and decided I wanted to record it too.

10. Out on the Prarie-

The last song written for the album and it’s about leaving your home, and wanting to go back.



Thank you: To my Dad and Mom, Amy, Maya, Cowboy, Jerry, Miles, Karen and all my friends. Thanks to all the musicians who helped me with this album, it wouldn’t sound nearly as good without you. And thanks to Laura Goldhamer for all of her help and ideas while recording this album
