Haven't had much time to record the last week so I thought I'd post an older recording. I did this one last summer with the same bass  player from "Kill the Messenger", Aaron Miller, and this has his brother Kyle on drums (a mid range Yamaha electric kit I think). I've been thinking of remixing it so any suggestions are always appreciated.
 Enjoy!

Very nicely done, would like to see the lyrics. Warm groove with a picture of a lazy day in the sun chillin'...

This is a beauty. So melodic, lyrical and sunny. You really know how to construct a song well - the build from the intro to the big chorus is absolutely faultless. I love your delivery and ear for a great chord progression. I wish I'd written this one, lol. That's one hell of a bass player you have too. I'm digging this one big-time. Stupendous! Sounds like a hit to me.

I agree with Greeny on the nice building up of the parts. Solid tempo, nice tones, chords, and ideas. I almost missed the bass in my headset tho. Could be brought forward? I do admit my bass ear is a bit weak tho so get another opinion. (I always feel I need to crank up or EQ some higher Hz for me to hear bass parts)

Wow, this is amazing. I hate to not have any original thoughts, but damn Tim hit the nail on the head. I absolutely love the vocal on this. It's songs like this that inspire me to work harder at this silly little all-consuming hobby.

Hey Guys thanks that's all very kind. I also think I need to raise the bass a little, M_GLEN_M, that was my main reason for thinking about  remixing. I wish I had more tunes with Aaron on bass, he's the bomb! It's proven a little hard for us to get our paths to cross but I'm glad I got what I got! Thanks again for all the nice words, I'm glad you liked it!
