The world is my oyster and I came to claim the fucking pearl -- Carl Hose
Those are my words. The concept isn't original but the phrasing is. I appreciate every breath I take. I have a beautiful wife and kids. I have a great career. In other words, I'm claiming the pearl.
I am the author of a couple novels. My work has appeared in numerous magazines and anthologies. Writing books and short stories, while it's been enjoyable, isn't my first love. Music is and always has been the most important thing to me from a creative standpoint. Playing music and writing songs is something I've done from a very young age. It's what makes me happy creatively.
This channel is about songwriting and the music that inspired me through the years. I believe those influences help define me as a songwriter. That music is my muse. I believe this is true for most songwriters. I want to explore that concept in these videos. Let's play the muse together.
