Today was a day of intense physical execution from around 8 to 5, going as fast as I could without stopping, picking up recycling from one house after another (111 in all). Today usually takes eleven hours, but I got ‘r done today, mainly because I had to deal with my latest phone issues. I lost my iPhone and undoubtedly that’s a very expensive endeavor. That’s why today’s song is another one of my pep talks to myself. This one is kind of moody and I kind of like it. I actually added more stuff to it but took it off to achieve this kind of minimalist sound.
Welcome to Chris Cates.com. I'm an old school independent artist with lots of albums, songs, solar panels etc. This site tries to encapsulate what it is I've been doing since I played my first professional gig at 13. I post a song of the day occasionally from my somewhat excessive original song catalogue and I'm constantly recording new material when I'm not building solar farms, trying to play golf or tennis or taking care of my new twin girls.
