The ninth new song this year was written with Andy Hawkins. I produced Andy’s EP and he’s coming back to Alabama to record a full length in the spring. He wrote this first verse and we brainstormed the chorus. Then his homework was to go and make the changes his own, play them in the style of Andy Hawkins. Meanwhile, I’m over here playing them in the style of an ill version of me with a scratchy voice. LOL
Song 7
Chris MacDonald, Kevin Lay, Chris Barnes and myself have been writing songs together when we can. This is the first one we have ever finished in one night. I blame me and my lofty new years resolutions haha
Song 6
New song written today with Bill Fowler who I met last week when he interviewed me for Uprising HSV. Bill has been playing in the area for years and it was great to finally meet him and get to work on something together.

Song 5
Trying to write as many songs as I can this year. Aiming for one a day but that isn’t always possible as I have a job and stuff haha. It is still helpful knowing that if I have time, I should try to finish or at least start a new song. Here is the fifth in this new year’s resolution series.
Day 4
Day Four! Four Songs in Four Days. I’ve had a lot of help. I could never have done this on my own. This one was written with my dear friend Lana White.
Thank you for coming over and writing this song with me Lana!Â
Day 3
Day three of three songs in three days. How long can I keep this up? Who can say for sure.
Cowrite with my friends Kevin and Chris, who make up 1/2 of a band I’m in called Send A Raven.
When You Run Out of Time
What can we do
Now that we’re dying
If I could start again
With energy to spend
Hide all the clocks
Pull me back in
Stained glass
Watch the expanse
All this medicine isn’t keeping you alive
The best part is the next part
When you go back in time
Send away all the angels
It’s all that you can do
They do not deserve to see
What the world did to you
You might not get any closer
On the edge looking down
Out in the horizon
Is a world you haven’t found
All this medicine isn’t keeping you alive
What is worth holding on to
When you run out of time
All this medicine isn’t keeping you alive
What is worth holding on to
When you run out of time
All this medicine isn’t keeping you alive
What is worth holding on to
When you’ve run out of time
Day three of three songs in three days. How long can I keep this up? Who can say for sure.

Day 2
Day two of two songs in two days. Yes, I’m trying to write a song a day. Technically I finished this one before the day was over. Technically it was started Monday when Ingrid came over. Another Billy and Ingrid cowrite for the books.
