Here's one I did a while ago that I've been revisiting lately. I'm thinking of teaching a creativity class at the local arts center, and I'm going to use this one as an example of how to write a blues song about everyday life. I've started writing new lyrics for this, called "Raised-Bed Garden," and in my class I would encourage participants to write their own words.

I'd definitely take a class like that. Lyrically I'm completely unoriginal, and don't know how to bust through to becoming creative. I'm just now starting to become a little creative musically, so hopefully that will pave the way.

I love the music here. Great guitar layering, and I'm a huge fan of the heavy aggressive picking on the lead guitar. Vocally I really enjoy your style. Great concept for a song.

this reminds me of a story where it was pointed to me out that my socks didn't match.

i told my critic that i liked them so much i had a second pair at home.

that's what i like about your music mr withrow.

you can take something as simple as mismatched socks and create a cool song around it.
