1.	Hunger to Be Fed 05:30	lyrics	buy track
Lyrics: hunger to be fed I sing my song for money, I sing my song for bread I go to bed each night with one running through my head I wake up each morning with a hunger to be fed it’s a strange thing to want to play in clubs and bars when you’ve been over drinking from the bottle for some time now : chorus : a strange thing to wanna be on the road when you’re over taking invitations from the strangers that you meet on the way : chorus : I don’t know which is more important, writing songs or singing them : I need me some more of them days that slide on by yeah I need me some more of them days that just slide on by
2.	Move Ahead 04:42	lyrics	buy track
move ahead all of my love for you, though I gave all I could, all of my love for you, just made me blue : all of my love for you, though it was true through and through, all of my love for you, just made me blue : all my love for you, couldn’t make you see the way I do, all my love for you, just made me blue :: it’s time to move ahead, past the guilt that I’ve been fed, time to paint in red : it’s time to move ahead, past the fear in my step, time to paint in red, time to move ahead : it’s time to move ahead, past the walls we’ve erected
3.	Train 03:49	lyrics	buy track
Lyrics: train sitting on the front porch, cross the valley the train’s going by : you can hear it in the morning, hear it on into the night : lying in the cool bed, the train’s crying into the wind, lying in the cool, cool bed, the train’s crying into the wind : you can hear it in the morning, hear it on into the night :: working in the tobacco fields, cross the valley the train’s going by : sitting in the cool shade, the train’s crying into the wind, sitting in the cool, cool shade, the train’s crying into the wind :: playing in the fallow field, cross the valley the train’s going by : running through the cool weeds, the train’s crying into the wind, running through the cool, cool weeds, the train’s crying into the wind : you can hear it in the morning, hear it on into the night
4.	Non-Existing Girlfriend 03:37	lyrics	buy track
non-existing girlfriend I am the non-existing girlfriend, and I am loving you with my non-existing heart : and I am touching you with my non-existing hands, I thought it was a healing touch, a warmth you could feel, but all along, they were non-existing hands : and I am talking with my non-existing mouth, I thought that you would care, that you wanted me to share, but all along, they were non-existing words : I am the non-existing girlfriend, and I am loving you with my non-existing heart
5.	What Happened 04:00	lyrics	buy track
what happened what happened to the sixties, what happened to the hippies, what happened to the acid generation, what happened to the revolution : what happened to your dead, what happened to your head :: what happened to the eighties, what happened to the punk scene, what happened to the methamphetamine, what happened to the anarchy :: what happened to the millennium kids, what happened, they got nothing to believe in, what happened to the ecstasy, what happened to technology

about

"I like the skillful pairing of exotic-sounding percussion with otherwise rootsy instrumentation. I’ve heard other DJs comment about that as well."

--May 07; Kim Clark, Music Director WNCW (Asheville, NC)

Introducing femo rock, a melding of the confessional aspect of emo songwriting and the more electric format of rock. Friends describe the music as ranging from ethereal to savage, a wide-ranging mix of musical emotion utilizing melodic dissonance. If Ben Harper, a lo-fi Joni Mitchell & Hüsker Dü had genetically engineered children, they would have the sound of Vanessa Boyd & the Yes Men.
