Back in January, I was contacted by some dudes (Ramsey Tripp and Brad Bosse) making a documentary up in Lewiston, ME about cancer survivors who bicycled from Calgary to Lewiston last summer. The film is entitled The Peloton Film, and the Executive Producer is Auburn, ME’s own Patrick Dempsey.
At the time, they asked me if they could use Weather’s Changing (Fast) for the movie. I agreed, but as the weeks wore on, I eventually met these guys, and we hatched a plan to not only include Weather’s Changing, but also whatever else I could throw at them. I quickly recruited the help of good friends Courtney Brocks, Jesse Dold, and M. Cole Gove to help out on the recordings, and also to submit some of their own material for consideration (turns out they will use most of it).
Here are a couple of songs, both recorded at Ghost Mill Studios (Dover, NH) and produced by Jesse Dold and yours truly.
Rolling (film version)
I Wish (instrumental)

This is a journal entry I wrote eight years ago, just before losing my Dad to cancer.

Stone Church Newmarket, NH
Succumb to Hell CD Release Party
Death sucks. My dad had been on his deathbed with cancer for the last couple of weeks, and it’d been a taxing experience, to say the least. But when I mentioned the possibility of canceling this show to my dad in order to be with my family, when things took a turn for the worst, he wouldn’t hear of it.
“Do the show,” he told me in the waning weeks of January, when his health took its first real downturn. “I’ll still be here.”
