Greetings:

I’m playing at City Sound Tracks, a first-of-its-kind music festival put on by What’s Up Magazine and TrackingProgress.org in support of public transit in St. Louis.  St. Louis Magazine has written a nice, concise piece on it that includes a quote from the organizers:

“Public transit is a vital necessity to the future of every metropolitan area; it provides the critical regional access to employment, healthcare, education, and leisure. St. Louis is no different, and it needs excellent public transit to continue growing. Strong public transit means a system that is supported not only by robust funding, but also by a community that understands its importance in daily life. In celebration of local public transit and in an effort to displaycreative support for the April 6, 2010 county vote on Proposition A, local activists have organized the most innovative music festival in the United States.”

More details as they arrive.

Peace,

Andy

Dear People Who Use the Internet,

Many of you have asked about my process for putting songs together for the Song Per Week Project.  Here are some essential elements:

Coffee. Staying alert is key.

Lyrics. Sometimes grocery lists come within close proximity of song sheets.  And that’s okay.

Multiple Attempts. This is the special spot on the bookshelf for written songs, many of which you will never hear.

Enjoy this week’s song.

Peace,

Andy
