The Queen is 25
Near the end of October I was asked to contribute a track to The Cover Lovers (a cover song blog) tribute album for The Smiths’ “The Queen is Dead”. I tried my hand at “The Boy With The Thorn In His Side”. It’s not my favorite Smiths song, but taking the time to deconstruct the original and find a way to make it my own gave me a new appreciation for it. There are some great renditions of these classics in this batch. Enjoy.
You can download all the tracks from the tribute via the blog: http://thecoverlovers.blogspot.com/2011/11/queen-is-25.html
Here’s the full track list:
- The Queen is Dead - Baby Guru
- Frankly, Mr. Shankly - My Drunken Haze and Egg Hell
- I Know It’s Over - MechAnimal
- Never Had No One Ever - Tyler Holmes
- Cemetry Gates - Sillyboy

The Passenger: A birthday gift from me
Today is my birthday. To celebrate I am releasing a new single, The Passenger. This is a song I have adored for a long time and always wanted to cover. The inspiration hit me a few months ago, and now I want to share it with you. Download it now from BandCamp.
