I’m catching back up today after being a song behind for about a week. I’ve got another one almost ready to go that I’ll finish a little later today.
My amp is still in the shop so not much electric guitar in the near future. Which is fine for now. After all I have another 341 songs to write for this blog.
“Revelation of Education Dedication” is about enjoying the journey even when you’re upgrading yourself. It actually sounds a little like “Give it More Time” a song off of the upcoming Chris Cates & the Master Plan album.
Still playing catch up with the songs but I had a fantastic day in the studio with Chris Singleton finishing all of the bass lines for our “Follow the Feeling” album.
We’re really excited about it. It’s a new sound for us, dance music/disco/synth/rock/party music. It’s actually an album that’s mainstream, maybe a first for me.
Anyway, today’s song “A Place Between Awake” is about my returning home late at night from my music/work endeavors that keep me away from home and my comfy bed with my wife.
I guess that’s a recurring theme this month, “Sleeping Sweetly” was kind of about this a little a week or so ago. But it was more about the cold weather than my sojourns.

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.
