Wind and Waves http://virb.com/windandwaves howdy, my name's tracy. i look forward to getting to know you! thanks for taking the time to check out my music. i put a lot of work into this stuff, so hopefully you'll get a little something out of it. right now i'm just one guy working alone, but i'm open to collaborating with other people to help me communicate the big ideas i have inside of my head. with my music i'm trying to move away from typical popular musical structures, while at the same time remaining listenable, so i hope you dig it! i'll be uploading some new songs soon, so stay tuned! until then feel free to send me a message or an email and tell me what's on your mind : ) - - - Wind and Waves is actively searching for opportunities to play live; in both traditional and non-traditional performance spaces.

the only thing i like more than April Fool jokes is when it's New Year's Day and people say stuff like "i haven't seen you since LAST YEAR" or on New Year's Eve when you say "goodnight, i'll see you NEXT YEAR" oh i laugh at those jokes every single time.

close your eyes and take a trip,
-tracy.

i recently bought this little mobile recorder (the Zoom H2) and i've been playing with it, trying to record some song ideas. i just posted a fun recording i made tonight called December Night. it's some old lyrics i had that are kind of about how a winter night feels and what it makes me think of. nothing deep, just a lot of exaggerated imagery ;)
