Song Tree

Casey's Corner

Song Tree presents the idea that a song is alive. An artist should release many versions of a composition. Songs change as they are performed and are never really finished. By creating this archive I’m using Song Tree to show the larger effort that goes into recording music. I ask that if you like the music contribute by playing my songs.

The Love Idea version was so long and Dylan-like that I worked on a new arrangement for a live show. I wanted those bubbles and lion roar up in the mix. Can we have more lion roar?

Album Version

I edited The Love Idea in 2023 and cut the original down to eliminate some of the text.
