In #AFairDistance by #KevinGerald a weary but wizened traveler sings of #truth and the futility of #goodluckcharms and #wishes. I have to thank my friend Christopher for inspiring this song. We were talking over #coffee one night and he randomly says, "I wish I had a magic number." At least that's what I heard. We were in an anteroom at an #openmic in #SantaMonica and it was pretty loud. I started thinking about what I'd do with a magic number. Then all these thoughts came to me about #secrethandshakes, #xrayspecs (remember those for sale in the back of comics?) and #luckyhorseshoes. I heard somewhere that a lucky horseshoe can work wonders, should you ever need to trap the #devil in a jar. Anyway, I performed this song using my trusty 1990 #TaylorJumbo, which I've played on many recordings, videos and live performances. I think it sounds amazing. Love the sound it gave me on my video #LeastResistance which you can find on YouTube at: https://youtu.be/ft5itfwRtgY Thank you for watching: If you enjoyed the song, please like and subscribe to my channel and check out my website.

#KevinGerald wrote and performed his song #EastofEden on his #1965GibsonES120. The song is about #AdamandEve and the #FallfromGrace as told by #Adam. Thank you to artist Lucas Cranach the Elder c. 1530 whose panel paintings I saw at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and that helped inspire the song. Thank you also to John Steinbeck since he wrote the literary masterpiece #EastofEden. Thank you for watching: Please subscribe to my channel.

#TaladorDreaming by #KevinGerald is a song about #AlienAbduction. I think there might be a #StarTrekNextGeneration episode where #CaptainPickard lives almost an entire lifetime and then wakes up and finds he was dreaming and had only been asleep for a few minutes. I've always been fascinated with #OBE #NDE #AlienAbductions and the concept that time is not linear and is merely a construct. I performed this song with my #TaylorJumbo guitar.

#KevinGerald performed his latest video #UnderneaththeInfluence on a #Martin000CXE from #MartinGuitar. I'm from #SantaMonica #California and between the low cloud eddies and light pollution (and smog), we rarely get to see many stars. I wrote this song during an amazing trip to #JoshuaTreeNationalPark when the night sky was clear and the countless stars and constellations put life into proper prospective. I highly recommend spending time in the desert and the #JoshuaTree area in particular. If you go, bring your #acousticguitar #cameraequipment #artsupplies or whatever else helps you create because you will be inspired beyond belief.

#KevinGerald performed his latest song #AttheEndoftheDay on a #TaylorJumbo #acousticguitar at the #UnurbanCoffeeHouse in #SantaMonica #California. The song is a reminder that your thoughts are not necessarily your friends. Best to observe, rather than identify with them. Thank you for watching: Please subscribe to my channel.
