Enjoying doing more composing for video situations…I find the music takes me into some very interesting places; kind of like an actor that really enjoys playing various roles, because he gets to explore many different parts of himself.

Thanks again to all who have listened over the years…nice to know you’re out there:)

Composing music is really an enjoyable “task” for me. It’s my source of genuine joy.

Writing and recording music is actually what I would do whether or not I ever received a cent for it, which is a comforting thought I suppose:)

Keeping that creative river opening out into the world seems like a good thing for me…so on and on I go…

Here are some samples of music I’ve written for video etc. Hope you enjoy:)
Move, Don’t Know, Laughing Daisies, Sarah, Where Hearts Once Were, Slueth, Head In The Sky

Hi Folks-
I have a 2 hour live online interview coming up later this month. I believe you can call in with questions also:) It’s September 23rd 4:30 P.M. to 6:30 P.M. Eastern time USA hosted by the wonderful Andrea Garrison. Here is the link with more info etc. JC Interview
Best to you all…

It’s interesting having a recording study so handy because I can’t seem to stop writing music; I just get called back in time after time almost every day:) I suppose that’s a good problem to have..

I’m enjoying the fact that I’ve been getting new fans from places like Russia, Korea, and Japan.

Thanks folks- I’m glad you enjoy what I do!

Here is one of my recent live in concert “spontaneous improvisations” based on three randomly chosen piano notes by an audience member.

I ask a volunteer to hit any 3 notes they’d like, and then I try to weave them into a melody right there on the spot. This keeps me on my toes for sure!

If you were there you should remember it:) I named it “Violet Night” (Copyright 2010 Unspeakable Freedom Music)

There are a lot of activities connected with overseeing getting one’s music out in the world these days! Lots of indie artists are doing much of it themselves..
Here’s a few in case you’re curious: Writing/composing the tracks, creating/setting the arrangements for them, recording the material, mixing, sequencing the song order for the album, mastering, packaging, shipping, promoting etc.
The list goes on and on..But it’s great to be involved with something you can’t seem to live without:)

Sometimes I really get caught up in wondering what to do next…
