    I Am Alive ~ YouTube

    I am slow but surely getting my crazy animated videos up for my songs. As I complete each one I post it on YouTube into a playlist. Listen to my new album, I Am Alive, and watch my strange animated videos. Thank you!

  • Close Your Eyes

    2020 was really tough on my family. My sister is a nurse, and she had her elderly mom and dad living with her. Between tests, she caught and brought home Covid, and both her parents got it and died, including the cat! It was a huge loss to our family, and we are all still…

  • I Come To Maine

    I was born in Augusta, Maine in 1964. That’s a long time ago. I graduated MICA art school in the mid 80s, moved to the Bay Area of California, and began pining away for my home state. I would return most summers to work in the arts and crafts department at summer camps, so I…

    Live show. Jay sings Bunches and Bunches from the new album, I Am Alive. Miss Hazel sings her song, Hooligan Heart, at Taboo Taqueria in Rockport, Maine.

  • I Am Alive – the video

  • Far Away From Home

    I have been a camp counselor in the arts and crafts room since 1984. That’s about 3 generations, so now I teach the kids of my kids from the 80’s. They all look like their moms! It’s a bit surreal. Because I love all things summer camp, I write a lot of campfire songs while…

  • Barely Alive

    I tend to be a perfectionist. Usually a promise from me is as good as done. When things fall apart, and failure is unavoidable, I tend to stress out. I don’t like to brand myself with failure. I want to reach my goal and accomplish the things I set out to achieve. This song is…
