The Present & The Future


Apodiform has unfortunately been put on the back-burner for some time now. If you didn't already know, the last few months I've had a son, built a new company and basically changed my lifestyle completely. I love the direction my life is headed and couldn't feel anymore blessed to be surrounded by so much love and be working with such incredibly gifted and talented friends. I simply haven't had the time or the drive to focus on my own music.

There will be days where I hop on the piano in the middle of my work day or after changing a diaper to find I've got some new ideas bouncing around in this cluttered head of mine. There will come a day when I will simply have to get some of these ideas out of my head to make room for everything else. I can't say when that new material will be completed and produced but I can say that it will be sometime in the near future.

So, thanks for your continued love and support for my family, my band and the musicians that I work with...

Apodiform will be back soon...

Non Omnia Moriar


I've been asked about the lyrics to Non Omnia Moriar so I figured I'd just post and explain.

This song consists of the last dying words of 8 individuals. Non Omnia Moriar means "Not all of me will die" in Latin, in case you didn't know.

So...here ya go...you can get the song free here as well >> www.apodiform.bandcamp.com

Non Omnia Moriar
Lyrics:

“Turn up the lights, I don’t want to go home in the dark” - O. Henry/William Sidney Porter
“Oh my poor soul, what is to become of you...where will you go?” -Cardinal Mazarin

take all your preconceptions... and leave them alone
there’s something waiting for us
something waiting for us
out there

“The fog is rising...” - Emily Dickinson
“I have failed...” - Jean Paul Sartre
“What a fool I’ve been” - Winston Churchill
“Now comes the mystery” - Henry Ward Beecher
“It’s my turn to take a leap in the darkness” - Thomas Hobbes

take all your preconceptions... and leave them alone
there’s something waiting for us
something waiting for us
out there

can you see the light getting closer
can you feel the love taking over
finally we’ve come to discover
that we’re long overdue for surrender

finally as for my spirit
Father into thy hands I commend it - Jesus Christ
