Your music is very good I enjoyed it alot well done

Trev

I could only listen to two, the others wouldn't work.

December Tide - Thought it was very good, although it isn't my type of music. You have a great voice, and the guitar sounds great. Definitly cool how you keep adding different things to the verse (instrumentally I mean)

I Should've Seen it - Nice rhythm playing, sounds good. The vocals need to be a bit louder in places I think though.

Glad you posted!!

I listened Firefly (Parts 1 and 2) and December Tides. Very nice. I agree with Taso, It is cool how you add different sounds.

Thanks for sharing.

thanks everybody, yea that was the one song that i actually took time to record, the others are live versions, but ill be sure to sing louder next time so thanks

So what took you so long :lol: You have a gift for a tune IMHO. I always enjoy you tunes :D Nice tone with the guitar and the vox is great :wink:
BTW, Check your my space page, I have a "Friends request" :lol:

Keep on Shining :twisted:

ken

checked and added mr dog

very nice stuff. good playing good voice. very professional and contemporary sounding.
I like the conformity talk in the one live piece.

you come across as comfortable with your playing, voice, and style. great.

thank you so much!

its been cool to get a nice response in regards to the music as this is the first time ive EVER been comfortable and actually liked what i was writing so it really means so much thank you to you all!

Your older stuff sounded like you were trying to write a song, but now it just sounds like your making the music that you want to make. You keep your music interesting too which is a nice change for most singer/songwriters.

Do you use a lot of open tunings?

no sir everything you hear is in standard

but i think your refering to firefly part 1/2

for that particular song I used a full capo second fret and another full capo covering the E,A,D,G strings at the fourth fret

at that point i used an em chord shape and two other weirdly unique ones

interesting you noticed it was different though

good ear!

Ya open tunings just have that drone sound. They are cool though, I like this guy Erik Mongrain who uses a lot of open tunings.

Lately I like standard tuning on the mandolin though haha.

Hey Spencer,

nice to see you back. Checked out yourSpace, very nice. I like "I Should've Seen It.." to me this song demonstrates your essential style. I liked the others' too but "I Should've Seen It.." is my favorite.

cheers

Paul

mongraine is sick

found him on youtube

he is just rediculous(wow i spelled that terrible)

have you checked out andy mckee

and thanks pbee im glad you like that song, it is probably the most personal song ive ever written, though the person who it was written about doesnt know its about them was at a show i did recently! most fun ive ever had playing a song
