Single: Hosed (6.12.26)
What initially inspired me to write Hosed was a kids pin art toy, actually. The sound it makes when you reset the pins is just so great! So I immediately put together the rhythm track and started writing to that. The subject matter of the song speaks to that feeling we’ve all felt at some point or another. Whether it’s gas prices, long lines at an outlet store, a dollar store with prices well above a dollar, or the price of medical bills, sometimes we can tend to feel hosed…
The recording features Mick Sullivan from Squeeze-bot on banjo, and I’m playing everything else. Mick is also an author, the creator of “The Past and The Curious” history podcast, and an all around swell guy. The second track is an alternate mix of “Hosed” that simplifies instrumentation down to mainly banjo, bass and drums, and features a different guitar solo section. Lastly, I included a song that I recorded over 7 years ago as the B-Side, “You Don’t Have To Walk Alone.”
