Revolution - The Protest Song:

Inspector #20

Ambassador of Tone
Fallen Star
Country flag
A highly political song I wrote in 2017 as a warning to corrupt politicians and government officials who continue to underestimate the power and will of the American Public. It decries corrupt lawmakers, the corrupt banking system that stole the homes out from under American families and hints at the secession of Texas from the union, as well as warning the powers that be that the American people are indeed a sleeping giant. It's a song that advocates American patriotism and suggests that the 1st amendment is in jeopardy.

Because of the highly conservative nature of this song, I have chosen not to share the link publicly. However, for those who would not be offended by this type of subject matter, I will send a private link via PM.

This is a simple demo made here at home without a drum track, played to just a foot stomp, so i am aware that there are some timing anomalies that will need to be corrected in the 'album version' of the song, but it at the very least gives you a feel for what the finished product will sound like.

Although I am recording a finished version of this song myself, for both release and a music video, this demo has also gone out to Kid Rock and Texas Hippie Coalition.
 
This song, like most of my work, has a country element that I am not at all fond of, but I have learned to embrace it, because I cannot seem to stop it. It's just something that seems to come from within. I have started calling it 'Swamp Metal' for lack of a better term...
 
So, a little different approach on this song. Rather than wait around for the studio version to be completed, I decided to just create a still video for the rough-cut demo and put it out there. The song is copywritten as a sound recording, as are the actual sheet lyrics, so full protections are already in place.

Not sure where this will go. Outfall has already decided to record it and I am aware of at least three bands that have already asked to add it to their live performances.
 
Outfall has decided to record this song this weekend and create a music video for it.

I've thus far received emails - from 7 different bands - requesting to perform it at their gigs.

Got a still image video up on YouTube just for exposure.

For those who have the link, feel free to share it...
 
Dudes!!!! The coolest thing just happened. I'm sitting in traffic, on the 134 at Riverside Drive, with the Hollywood sign in view, and the guy next to me, in a Corvette convertible, blasting my 'Revolution' song.

What a cool day!!!!
