helms-deep asked: You guys should really consider selling an album or EP of these Tumblr Theme Songs. I'd pay good money for mine. Maybe even shoot some of the proceeds towards relief efforts in Oklahoma. =)

FAWM!
In the way that time does, a year has passed, and we’re here in February. And with it, the month brings FAWM, the February Album Writing Month challenge. 28 days, 14 songs.
Last year, Rob and I both wrote music during FAWM and ‘won’ the challenge. My music resulted in my album ‘NEW THING’. Rob’s resulted in ‘Now That You’re Here’. Both...

Sound Advice
Before you start a song, ask yourself WWRD (What Would Rob Do?). Then play at 20-30 bpm faster than your answer.
-Rob
I’ve been working on my set, rehearsing, and driving myself nuts. Rob, he of the slowest damn song I’ve ever heard, offered sage-like advice.
Come see me play the Songwriter’s Showcase in Damascus, MD this Saturday Night. And if you do, remind me,...

Sunday Musings with Mark
My showcase show is a week away! Come see me play live! November 3rd @7pm, Music Cafe in Damascus, MD.
“Rehearsing Songs” is a somewhat new and strange concept to me. Years and years (and years) ago, I was in a band, and we largely covered Top 40 songs. In the years since, I’ve written and recorded a lot of music, but the idea of playing them live was abstract to me. Hell,...

Feedback!

The vocals are definitely a star, it’s great to hear Mark front and centre with very little effect. This is such a great track, so grungy rock. Nice!
Glad you enjoy the track. I totally agree with your assessment of Mark’s vocals.

wayfaringmd:
Ahem, I would just like to clarify that this post has been in my queue for over 2 weeks. Cranquis clearly looks up to me so much that he has assumed my writing ideas for his own blog (let’s just forget the fact, as I did, that this was actually his second CYOA post, because…

Robert Rubin - Now That You're Here →
I am pleased to announce the release of my debut album, Now That You’re Here.
After 2 albums with The Really Good Pot Roast, I’ve put together what I believe is a great collection of songs that I hope you all will enjoy. Now That You’re Here is my first solo album. Most of the material on it was written over the past year during 50/90 and FAWM. Some of the songs from the...

One more time, with feeling
Playing another open mic tonight. Decided last minute, and I really didn’t want to over think it. I wanted to get some live rehearsal before RGPR had session time this weekend.
This time I have sheet music and lyrics. So that’s a plus.
Still, panic.

Oooooh yeah. Listening to the new album by Mark Dabney, from The Really Good Pot Roast, “New Thing”. Oh, the irony that this song comes up as I’m entering sales leads into CRM…
