Song "Petals and Roses" (Influenced by Elliott Smith) 01.02.2016 4:41

This week's song is super chill and inspired by Elliott Smith (especially the double tracked vocals and guitars). It's about boldly going into a relationship without knowing what the outcome will be. I'm not really sure where to take this song in terms of additional arrangment. Any ideas?

Song "Outside" (Influenced by Coldplay) 25.01.2016 6:21

This song is about admitting that you are wrong in a relationship. The approach to this recording I've had in my head for a long time (kind of early Coldplay maybe?) but maybe there another way to approach the song that might be better?

Song "The Golden Age" (Influenced by John Lennon) 18.01.2016 5:58

This one is written back in 2003. It's about where we've come as a people and how we define progress. I kept the instrumentation sparse with just a piano and vocal. It's influenced by Coldplay and Aqualung (and now that I think about it, John Lennon).Visit jakehaws.com for more songs.

Song "When I Was Young" (Influenced by REM) 11.01.2016 5:49

Song #2 in my 50 Songs in 50 Weeks project. Here's a ditty I wrote back in high school (10+ years ago!) and finally got around to recording it! It's about the time when you are a kid and anything is possible. It's heavily influenced by what I was listening to at the time: REM and Oasis. Visit jakehaws.com for more songs.

Song "4th of July" (Influenced by Pinback) 04.01.2016 7:16

Song #1 in my 50 Songs in 50 Weeks project. This song is about the fleeting moments we celebrate with fireworks. The production is inspired by the Pinback. Visit jakehaws.com for more songs.
