kick the dirt
In 2007 I wrote three very different songs. They were Guantanamo, You Better Start Coming Around and The Decider. They gave me permission to do this recording. All three seemed like they belonged to a certain time - and that time was the present - in response to the worst president in American history and an illegal and immoral war. I had written topical songs before but had never recorded them. This time I felt like sharing what I had to say.
