about

20080915 - ¡¡¡003 - Campbell - Cowboy Concréte

Hi everyone! This double-album is the product of almost a year of hard work and good clean fun. I make my music with guitars, my voice, gameboys, and audio samples of places, friends, and family. The first half is mostly guitar, gameboy, and voice. The second half is mostly guitar and piano with audio samples of places, friends, and family. It is my sincere hope that you enjoy this album and share it with everyone you care about. Or at least some of them. Spread the word, little bird.
