"The Food Lines are the Front Lines Now" REMIX 1:58

8 days ago1:58

1:58

As the daily American-and-Israeli massacres of starving Palestinians in search of food parcels continue in Gaza, Chet Gardiner has delivered a powerful remix of one of the many songs I've written in recent months on this subject, borrowing a line I heard from a reporter on Al-Jazeera, "The Food Lines are the Front Lines Now."…

"Gaza Humanitarian Foundation Hunger Games" REMIX 2:47

9 days ago2:47

2:47

Evening in the Americas when I received this brilliant remix from Chet Gardiner, and at the very moment I received this mix I was hearing news on Al-Jazeera about yet another morning massacre in Gaza, of starving Palestinians knowingly risking a likely death by Israeli machine gun fire in order for a slim chance at obtaining a small sack of flour. The abhorrent Gaza Humanitarian Foundation's Hunger Games continue.…

2:41

The US seems ever more intent to go to war with Iran. Meanwhile, there is a country in the Middle East with undeclared nuclear weapons, which the IAEA never visits -- Israel.

In Our Dreams ACOUSTIC 38:58

16 days ago38:58

38:58

As much as I love all of the instrumentation and vocal harmonies that characterize the new album (which you can hear in that multilayered form right now on Bandcamp ), listening to all of these songs in their original, solo acoustic form yesterday I found personally to be a powerful experience. I think these 12 songs, heard in this order, provide a fairly raw and I daresay gripping account of the past two months in certain vital corners of planet Earth. I thought I'd present them to you like I heard them, back-to-back, in case you want to try that, too.…

I made an audio mash-up of songs from the new album, and a slideshow to go along with it . Which may represent the sum of my abilities to hype an album release. In Our Dreams is on Bandcamp now, and drops on streaming platforms in July.

"You Can't Bomb Your Way to Peace" REMIX 3:52

23 days ago3:52

3:52

As Israel continues its bombing campaign against Iran and Trump considers whether to join in, I witness intelligent-looking pundits with reasonable-sounding voices discuss matter-of-factly whether dropping massive amounts of bombs on the cradle of civilization again might make the world a more peaceful place this time around.…

A song I originally wrote soon after the murder of Dr. George Tiller (May 31st, 2009), which we thought we'd put on the new album (2025). New instrumentation by Chet Gardiner, harmony vocals are Laura Love.
