My Spotify results for 2021. Slight bump up and no complaints from me. But what’s weird is, “Strange Weather” was the most-played and that came out in 2003! Whatever works!!

As of today, I am now a member of the International Singer-Songwriter Assocation. No I can’t sing but I write songs 🙂 And there’s a category for instrumental artists so there you go! My name should be on their website shortly.
MOOD SWINGS came in at #4 for Album Of The Year in Denmark!
“Force Quit” debuts at #3 in Australia!
Announced this morning! “Never Be The Sane” up for Best Rock Single award!
It’s officially official! Got my membership card in the mail.
MOOD SWINGS in the Finalist round!!!
