about

I put together this compilation of songs in 2019 after finding the occasion to play some of its pieces (especially the song “Brian”) to some young people I work with, who then asked if the songs were available on-line.

These are songs written and recorded between 1986 and 1992 that were not included on 1988’s Where’s the right line? or 1993’s Everyone looking for anyone (compiled in 2016 to accompany the book Misguided home).

released February 13, 1992

TestTubeBaby Vancouver, British Columbia

Just walked
On a long slab of concrete
Probably hundreds of metric tons
To the store
Thinking about the similarities
And differences
Between me and a squirrel

All proceeds from sales are donated to Matsqui-Abbotsford Impact Society. ... more
