Here's a fun pop-rock song from my band's new album:

I know it's been months since this was posted, but I was just browsing this thread and came across it. The drums at the beginning kind of reminded me of Ticket to Ride by the Beatles. Anyway, I was letting it play as I was browsing the internet and then it autojumped to another of your songs--So Much Better. Just wanted to say I love that one! Very great pop rock melodies there! Out of Sight just came on as I'm typing this and I'm also enjoying that. It's a shame your music doesn't have more of a playcount. Have you shared anywhere else?

Wow, thank you for the kind words! I love strong melodies and am glad that came through. The links have only been posted here and one other board I read (Steve Hoffman), and I'm not really "connected", as they say (hence the low play counts). But again, thanks for the comments and thanks for listening!

And if anyone's curious, here's a direct link to the song Ninten mentioned, So Much Better:
