Tsuga Canadensis

Listen

An instrumental composed in homage to eastern hemlock forests, which, though fewer in number now that an invasive pest has wiped many out, still survive.

Devil’s Elbow

Listen

A countryish number by The Westsylvanians, a trio I’ve been a part of since I was eighteen, that’s mentioned in my book Forest Time.

Sylva Obscura

Listen

The fourth album by The Westsylvanians (this one in the Americana vein) which explores despair, hope, longing, and other human things.

Silas’ Downtrodden Reel

Listen

A character-driven ditty about a down-on-his-luck fly-fisherman, heartbreak, and the gift of humility.
