Welcome to my world.

I share all of this with you only because I know how my life has been bettered by what has been shared with me.
I hope something in here brings something to your world.

Everything I do is a garden and I hope the seeds planted serve you well on your path.


This is a site about music, living small on wheels & on the homestead, road trips, intentional community, old cars...
And also for information about Brother Scott the artist.

The little Scotthead will always bring you back to this main page.

What's Happening:

This site! Redesigned to be even MORE simple. You see the direction I'm headed in while the rest of the world gizmos out? Low impact, low stress, low maintenance... and low tech! While I'm very grateful for the technology that allows us to come together like this, to me there's still no greater high than living low...

Here are quick access to the three most popular things on the whole site. Most come looking for these... below them is a menu for the rest of the site. Thanks so much for your time, interest & support!

"Soul Medicine" 
(CD)
Self-produced, kind of in the Sufjan Stephens / Will Oldham vein. It's a deep album for me and I offer it in the hope you love it and it offers you something.

"First Seed a Spirit Seed ~ A year in the life of a forming community" (Online book)
We formed a diverse intentional circle & helped each other through birth, death & homestead building. Here are practical examples of challenges & solutions.

I honestly feel at a very deep level this is an answer, a part of a solution for the ills of our age. We have lost touch with each other and this has made our common ground blurry; we have lost our tether to that of greater importance and this has affected our sense & judgement.

You could not think up a more diverse group than this circle. We didn't understand or agree on every detail about each other or how to manage the group and make decisions, but we did understand it was important to come together and agree that it was the higher calling to work together...

So we came together as rational adults on our common ground, worked it out, and got to work in helping each other.  I wrote & share this with you in hopes it assists other circles to come together and other "intentional communities" to form.
