We
encourage you to find your own meaning in our songs, but here,
in a nutshell is what they mean to us...
Jimmy
Tropical Breeze – Are we guided by destiny
or free will? I’ve always thought a little bit of both.
Go where you will, explore what you can, experience everything
but your Tropical Breeze will always eventually lead you back
to where you call home. Don’t be afraid to follow it.
Memento
– What triggers memories? A keychain in your pocket?
A locket around your neck? The faint hint of a certain perfume?
Some of the fondest memories I have are triggered by songs
and I carry those around in my head.
Palm
Tree in Buffalo – This one goes out to the
crazy folks up in our home stomping grounds who keep the summer
spirit going despite the sometimes extreme changes of weather
we experience here in Western New York. As long as the palm
tree grows the heat will come from someplace inside and I’ll
always be warm.
David
Erie Serenade – Just about every time I’ve
picked up my acoustic over the past 20+ years, this is the
song that came out. It just reminds me of kickin’ back,
cruising around the parks and beaches in my home of Western
New York. The great summer weather, lake breezes, beach bars
and having a cold one.
Marty
The Fisherman - Story songs are alot like short stories,
there's no room for the extraneous. This one is a nod to some
of the greats: Steve Goodman, Gordon Lightfoot and certainly
Jimmy Buffett
Cool
Clean Water - Water is a great metaphor, life can
be a smooth sail or a perfect storm, but it's usually somewhere
in the middle. Still it's best to know where the lifeboats
are.
Saturday
Night in New Orleans - This one came to me in a dream
after listening to a great band called The Subdues prior to
bed. Long live New Orleans!
We're
collecting friends all over this great land that have seen
fit to put songs from Memento on their radio broadcasts:
