Yes, it’s been five months since my last cryptic post.
Me and this long-haired musical genius named Cole Friesen have been busy making an album. Really. If you click the video, that’s me singing a song I wrote. It’s a long story how I figured out that I knew how to write songs. Not really ready to go back to writing prose, but at some point I’ll probably take a crack at explaining in detail how it all came about. The truth is, I wasn’t trying to write songs. It happened all on its own accord and it freaked me out when it started.
Anyway, it’s all done now. And Cole and I, humbly, are astonished how well it turned out.
Our band is called Lieutenant-Colonel David Davis. “Your First Blockade” is our first single, and also the title of the debut album. It is being released through all the normal streaming services places on 9/23//02.
Hope you have all been enjoying watching society crumble all around us as much as I have.
