One thing I enjoy is creating cover art for each song I write and record. Here’s a sampling of the art for the next four songs that I plan to release. The very talented RR has created a lot of great artwork that she lets me use for cover art, such as the dragonfly on the Teascape Dragonflies cover.
Cover art for the Nuclear Blue songs Teascape Dragonflies, Love ’26, Division by Zero, and Healthy Again.

It was one year ago today that I put my first song on Bandcamp for the world to hear, an instrumental called Frozen Orbit. To celebrate that milestone, I put together a little sampler of the most September-ish of the songs I've written so far. nuclearblue.bandcamp.com/album/septem...

I’d been wanting to write a song that would go well with an accordion, and I’m pretty happy with how this came out.

Today seems like a good day to put out some political music. Credit to my little one for the line “unruining is hard,” which is very relevant to this incredibly dumb timeline we live in.

My friend Jeffry writes, sings, and plays all sorts of instruments and I'm honestly kind of in awe of his talent. Here's his most recent song on Bandcamp, which I like a lot. I have been told more is coming soon, which I am looking forward to hearing. pinklemonsexactly.bandcamp.com/track/photog...

I think about my friend Randy a lot, especially this time of year. This year I wrote a song about our days together at the University of Toledo, and about one particular day that was so cold that it prompted him to say that it felt like "40 below a million", which we laughed about for many years.

Some of you may know that I lost the ability to speak in 2024, and that I vowed that if I ever regained that ability, I would finally sit down and make a serious effort to write and record music, which has been a dream of mine for a very, very long time.

Wikipedia cofounder Larry Sanger has been in the news this week (apparently Wikipedia banned him.) I don’t know of too many songs that name-check him, but this one does!

I’ve spent the last year or so writing songs and recording rough demos in which I handle all the instruments and vocals. I’m very excited to be moving to the next phase: working with actual (human) musicians much more skilled than me to bring my songs to life. Here is the first one.

This classic XKCD came to mind recently when I tried to visit Reddit on my phone, although it needs to be updated to remove the "OK" button. imgs.xkcd.com/comics/app.png

We have an ancient Dairy Queen in town and I really love how pixely the decor is. Mosaic tiles are underrated as a design choice.
