One Hour Songstress: Jingles written while you wait!

Playing the first live gig of my new "career" (LOL!) in a few days and I should be rehearsing old songs. But no. I can't stop popping out new ones. "Wish I Could Say" is sparsely worded and short. Just me slappin' happy on my Taylor. Written & recorded in an about an hour ("While you wait!")



Leaving for the airport in a couple hours. Gonna feel the good ol' Atlantic under the air under the plane under my seat under my rear for 10 hours. The stuff dreams are made of. No really. I usually totally pass out. Ciao peeps & tweeps!

Sunday Services

At 11am, having run out of milk, I wished to pop downstairs and replenish my supply (lattes, duh!). Alas, the stores on my street in the Dam are not open on Sundays. Booo!

There is one store that carries milk and serves on Sunday: the Nightshop. Unfortunately, they take their name very seriously and are literally only open at night. PM. 11am, no cigar. So of course I wrote a song. Yeah and um, I could've bought milk hours ago at this point.

Contains verbal profanity.



When exiting the weekend, please proceed in an orderly and secular fashion.

Silly Somethings Spark Smiles

Yesterday I picked up a keyboard and tambourine for my apartment/burgeoning music studio in the Dam. I was pleased to discover that although I've still got small hands, my fingers are remarkably flexible! I know, an octave+1 isn't fab, but my hands are little! Check the digits!


The second smile, well it's super-silly: "Matchy, Matchy, Matchy!" Which is coincidentally the very sound this dimpled-brass-jingle tambourine makes...

Happy Mother's Day (Two Moms, One Song)

Ballad of the Red Light Lady: A GarageBand Experiment

I was messing with GarageBand and I wrote & "composed" (is it still even really composition? is it more like compilation?) this song in a few hours. There are obv mistakes in the vocal track, but I was just fooling around so I didn't bother rerecording.

Cheating on Lacey Jones, Part 1: The Blues

As many of you know, @BJNemeth has been writing "Cheating on @LaceyJones is like..." tweets and I wrote a song based on the idea. Well actually I wrote several songs. This is the first-- a bluesish song. Enjoy!

PLEASE USE HEADPHONES IF YOU HAVE A LAPTOP. This recording is only bass, vocals, & snapping. Music written & performed by Jen Creason Lyrics co-written by Jen Creason, BJ Nemeth & Rob Perelman
