During a 3.5 month trip living in a van, we met up with the one and only MDK in Vancouver Canada. He gave us a few of his CDs for the road, and we headed south in Washington and Oregon. There was this magical moment when this song came on just as we were pulling up to Cannon Beach at sunset. This incredible view paired with this song will be forever engrained in my memory. The next day I decided to add some drum parts to the song in front of the same view.

Here's a song I wrote called "Justice". We were on Vancouver Island and saw these ginormous 800 year old cedar trees and decided to record this there :) Lyrics: Justice. I've been trying to get it. You know I feel justified in getting some justice for myself I wanna make things even - I wanna make things right I want to get whats fair Get things back to the way for which I'd been prepared What could be more justified than justice? I wanna get even and return the favour Of an eye for an eye A little revenge for myself In the form of anger And it's completely justified I'm not the one who caused all this to happen Those weren't my choices And it's not my fault Justice says I get to make you pay I'll take my pound of flesh today But justice ain't no place to spend your life to live Don’t forget that there’s the option to let go, to forgive Staying angry, keeping score, holding grudges, lock the door I cant help but wonder if I let this go If I gain something more Don't get me wrong The answer isn't to be a doormat And let everyone just walk all over you But it's to give up your right to get even And to give up your right to cause pain Cause the pain you cause is the pain you gain Yeah can't send it out unless it's inside you You can't grow leaves of anger unless you are growing a tree of it too So dig up the root, it's time that we plant something new They don't deserve it no, they don't deserve it They don't deserve for me to let them go from this They don't deserve it no, they don't deserve it They don't deserve for me to let them go but It’s no place No place at all It’s no place No place at all It’s no place No place at all To spend your life to live --- Special Thanks to the following peeps for supporting my work/music: Charlie Irvine Michael Snook Chris Anselmo Nate Sumbot Dale Semple George Ablett Coco Sun Ian Gilfillan Harald Hirsch Nicolette Hawco Francois Goudreault Mike Hakesley Jessica Johnston Austenson Rueter Gertjan Kampen Benny Kaay Devon Hughes Stephen Cousino

We were in Edmonton and got my cousin Tymen to unicycle around me while I played the drums on a bridge overlooking the River Valley. It was a super duper fun time :) He's a beast!

To make this one, we hiked 14km and came WAY closer than we wanted to a bear...with cubs...twice...see the behind the scenes after the song :) This song started with just the drums which I improvised on location at Riding Mountain National Park in Manitoba Canada and recorded live as seen. Then I added all of the other instruments afterwards. I wanted to capture the cool feeling of the location, and the difficult task of getting there, through the song. The first time we saw the bear was on the way there. We cam around a corner and Jess was suddenly within 10 feet of it. It was as startled as we were and it ran about 20 feet away from us onto the trail. It watched us for about 30 seconds and then when we started making lots of noise it left. We saw it on our way out of the forest afterwards and saw that it had a cub (which was up a tree). Fortunately the second time it was much further away and we were making lots of noise.

Links back to this video are much appreciated if you do :) The drums are a custom invention of mine :) We are travelling across Canada while living in our van.

Here's a tune I wrote/recorded at Matlock Beach on Lake Winnipeg in Manitoba Canada. I love this style of music. It makes me feel like I'm about to voyage the high seas. Watch till the end for Behind The Scenes! Drums and main guitar recorded live as seen :) I recorded additional guitars in our van in a WalMart parking lot, and pianos in a Starbucks :P. One of my goals with this series of videos is to keep the music simple and not overthink it. I tend to take a long time perfecting (and never feeling like it is) before I release songs (not that it's a bad thing). But here I'm challenging myself to be minimalistic with everything and see what I can do. Living in a van definitely makes it easy to be minimal since recording additional guitar parts in a hot parking lot is challenging :P The mini guitar I am playing is one of my favourite new instruments. It's a Yamaha Guitelele and it's got amazing tone for a guitar you can fit in a backpack. Check it out - it's only about a hundred bucks and so fun: http://amzn.to/2xp04zb The drums are a custom invention of mine :P I plan to do a full video showing them in detail - and how you can build your own soon!

Here's a little tune I wrote on the road in Rossport Ontario on Lake Superior. Drums are recorded live as seen. Watch to the end for behind the scenes!
