What a treat that you have visited again. Face at the Creek is a collection of privately shared song lyrics in their inaugural structured formats. Intended to become original recorded music through my own independent label, these songs have yet to be audibly chronicled. In 2019 I was reignited to create music again, after a brief duration in my late teenage years. Writing poems, then songs, became the first outlet that helped launch the drive for the music project. After 5 years, and a revolving door of talented humans, FOCUS was produced. Just before that album's release, we had to abruptly and uncomfortably change studio spaces, which led to more raw writing. Then, a few more member changes, and inevitably the release of Municipal & Church. Some of these songs were entertained to be on that album, or tabled for future development. In these presented pieces, be them fact or fiction, the words are my own and are meant to represent moments in my life. My life only. Should anything trigger, please reach out to someone trustworthy or local mental health services. You are exquisite. ~ Michael
