We're your lawyers We're on motorbikes Tell us your pain We'll understand Get some road side food From these handful of places It's hungry work Traveling the land There's proof of God Another billboard declares A frightened baby A bible reading Losing your hair is a choice At our clinic we've found the answer We'll give you back your youth for bundles of cash If you're balding at the back or receding There's signs for everything By the road tonight But no sign of you anywhere And if you're up ahead on this road tonight I hope you are taking care Find your sort of place Where it just feels right Please tell me you'll wait there

We're living free The only way we know how A handful of meats And matching hats This is the way to spend a weekend Back to where it all began Fryeburg, Maine, New England A pair country cats We're living free Nothing's going to stop us A canopy of sherbet green trees Shows us the way Cracked Tarmac under our free wheels Ignoring the speed limits Ignoring the voices On this free New England day Living free is the only way to live free This free living is only giving Us The freedom to live free Not even going to think of dying I can't die Because that's how free I'm living We're living free Passing grey fox gun shop A tip of the cap to Jimmy buffet And one for the road Lake bound for those cool blue waters Little mountain country pizza This summer couldn't get better Living free no heavy load

When I'm walking down the road When There's something important I have to find When I've got an urgent parcel to mail You're just so far behind When I need to do the laundry When there's places I need to go You're always holding me back Because baby you're just so slow This ain’t no stroll I got places to go and I am on a roll and you poison my soul I’ve paid my tolls come on let’s go don’t be so slow don’t be so slow I really want a future with you I really want a love so deep But because you take your sweet time By the time you make the bedroom I'm already asleep When we went to get married It took you hours to get down the aisle When I ran the hundred meters You made it a mile Lady you're just so slow I want to love you But I don't have the time

Hey lady take my hand There's bluebells growing in the verge This sweet lands got our back And I'll go see it with you If you get the urge Hey lady take my heart We're living in lavender Drinking mulled wine Cuddle closer As the sun spreads its wings This is the best summer And we're doing fine Old and fat Old and grey You and me No matter what you say Will live to fight another day Just one more day All the way Hey lady take my head Everything's coming up roses Dancing round the kitchen Water fights on the roof Up a mountain, by the sea I'll always want you next to me Your auburn hair against the cartoon blue sky Funny pictures in a photo booth

about

New England Stand-up comedian extraordinaire, Jay Mayo suggested a weekend road trip. I took him up on his offer. Our plan was to record some music where we could, make a music video and then swing by Motern Media’s Matt Farley and record some songs there too.

The 5 songs on this EP are the result of that weekend.

Rough, acoustic, written on the go (or improvised) and recorded in a motel room, a car and a basement studio respectively, The New England Weekend Jams EP is not only an excellent documentation of three friends determination to create and have fun but also a message to everyone that you can collaborate and create anywhere, right now, today.

Miscellaneous Plumbing Fixtures New Milford, Connecticut

Songwriting and banging your instruments together

The main thing I love to do is write songs. I pick up various instruments from ukulele to piano, accordion to percussion and electric guitar to harmonica and bang them about to try and get close to the noises I hear in my head but the writing comes first. ... more
