Where do you draw the line?
It’s a fine line between animation, video games, soundtracks, hit singles, and movies these days. I’ve been trying to blur the lines for a while and found a great mind and talent in my friend Josh Larson of God at Play. Josh and I recently collaborated on a audio/visual project for Lutheran Church of Hope [...]
It’s Official!
It’s official. Scott Gratton is now a resident of Central Iowa! If you see this man toting a Rhodes piano around town give him a high five!

We’ve started a community garden at the Broadlawns hospital; perhaps new songs will [...]

Telltale Lyrics
I buried my feelings, just to keep us apart
I heard your heart, it was beating like a clock.
You’re a ghost.
A hot breath on my neck; just the trace of a scent.

I can’t go back and change my sins,
forgiveness isn’t mine to give.
