More than Comedy...
The songs.
Comedy is how I tell the funny stories on stage. Songs are how I tell the stories that someone else will sing.
​
These are original songs I've written over the years-some funny, some serious-but all of them come from the same place: real life.
01
Jack of All Trades
A song about wearing a lot of hats—and wondering which ones really matter.
02
Man, Ain't She Somethin'
Love, admiration, and the kind of woman who doesn’t need fixing.
03
Commas
About a life made up of chapters instead of periods.
04
God in a Bar
Finding faith in the places you never expected to look.
05
Happily - Even After
What real love looks like once the fairy tale wears off.
06
Hell, I Won
The ultimate girl breakup song in football terms a man can understand.
07
To My Father
What you say when you finally understand the man who raised you.
08
Ballad of the Opening Act
For anyone who paid their dues before anyone was watching.
Some stories are better sung than told.

The songs on this page are songwriting demos and works in progress. “God in a Bar” is a fully produced recording; the others are demo recordings created to showcase the songs themselves.
