YOU NAME THE PRICE (even $0.0)!!

I've decided to try a little experiment in guerrilla marketing. For the next month the price for downloading Bare Handed is going to be what ever you want to pay! You decide how much it's worth to you (even $0.0) and then download the album. At the end of February I'll take a look at the results and decide what to do next but for now, the power of the price is in your hands.

about

This is the album I’ve wanted to make for a long time. No band, no vocals, no multi-tracking, just two hands and a guitar (well, a few guitars actually).

The songs are mostly standards, but my interpretations are more impressionistic than faithful presentations of classics.

The mood is decidedly introspective (as befits someone who lives in a place where it’s gray and rainy for about nine months a year).

The tones are a celebration of the complex crystalline quality that comes only from a guitar. And that’s a sound that I truly love.
