I wanted Amos Lee’s album Spirit to be a continuation of acoustic roots that could be traced back to his first album. His depth has only grown since Mission Bell. After the As the Crow Flies EP and Mountain of Sorrows, Rivers of Song, I was expecting coronation into acoustic roots musical legacy with Spirit. […]

[Actually] living in California
In the 5 months since we’ve been out here I’ve been away for 6 weeks. I’ve been away from Katie for 4 and a half of them. Chicago, Valparaiso and Oregon have been the destinations. They’ve been great trips, don’t get me wrong. In fact, I’m looking forward to having the time to write up […]
“Back in the neighborhood / workin’ for the Savior”
For the last decade or so I have had two refuges: the OldOld Man’s family home in Southwest Florida & the pad up in Duneland belonging to one of my two childhood best friends, 5 minutes from Lake Michigan. Those refuges recharged me, refueled me, refocused me and kept me on the path to whatever […]

Project 03 isn’t about any trek towards the fortune 500. It isn’t about fame and it isn’t about fortune so much as it’s about freedom of choice and to not whither away behind a desk as the world runs by. It’s about the simple things: A breath of fresh aireA chance to work out on […]
[Review] Amos Lee’s “As the Crow Flies,” EP
I was doing my fact-checking to see if Amos Lee’s Mission Bell used the same El Camino as the El Camino featured in Emilio Estevez’s The Way when I stumbled upon a treasure: Amos Lee released a new EP, “As the Crow Flies.” Where the Hell did it come from? Who cares? It was more […]
