Music I’ve Made

| June 30th, 2009

A while back I posted to Muxtape some music I made. Since Muxtape is no longer available to the general public, I thought I’d put my homegrown tunes in my box. Here’s a playlist for your listening pleasure.

Zapatero // Zapatero means cobbler in Spanish.

Way Farin’ Stranger // This mandolin driven ballad was a collaboration between Ethan Ray Bush (mi hermano) and myself. He plucked the mandolino. I struck the quijada.

The Dips // One take. Harmonica and accoustical guitarra.

Don’t Go Home // Brad “Hound Dog” Johnson and myself threw this track down in one take. We were just a stone’s throw from the birthplace of blues, Memphis.

Range // Wait. Did I play this?

Mexican Funeral // The name is self-explanatory. Orale!

I Could Run Away // This song was originally written by Waterdeep. Adam Copeland and myself recorded this version in Mount Pleasant, TX. On a farm.

E Jig (Minor) // Ethan Ray Bush. Nuff said.

Dust Bowl C (Huancane Remix) // This song was an inter-continental collaboration between myself and Rick “El Cubano” Martinez. Rick lived in Huancane, Peru at the time of recording. I was in Little Rock, AR.

Car Port // Fergalicious.

Beat Base // Word.

Feel free to download them. Pretend you wrote them. Package them. Sell them. Get rich off of them. Just cut me in.

My mother-in-law, Ginger, busted out her prom dress which she wore to the Crossett High Prom where she was crowned prom queen. Sophia put it on, too.

Bush/Sumner Wedding

| June 18th, 2009

I am not a professional photographer. I do take a lot of photographs and have been blessed with a DSLR. I spent all of last week in Asheville documenting my sister’s wedding.

I took around 4,000 photographs. I’ve whittled it down to just under 1,000. I’m still whittling.

I’m post-processing now and narrowing it down even more. Cropping, coloring, resizing. You know the drill.

Go here to see the photos on which I’m working.

You can still listen to the stories the students told in Chronological Bible Storying last term. Some folks used drama to illustrate their stories. This was a demon possessed man as told by Jack Gresham.
