A Coyote

If this song were a cocktail, it might take you somewhere—and it would also be crafted from some fine ingredients.

One Mark Twain—specifically "Roughing It". One tablespoon of Eddy Arnold The Cattle Call. A dash of nostalgia. Several shakes traveling  out and about's, to and fro, hither and thither.

A pandemic. I forgot about that too.

Other stuff.

Sip it though.

I would write out the lyrics, but that would negate all the time spent inserting the lyrics above. You're going to have to experience it in real time—not at the speed of read.

Not at all is also an option (that being my least favorite).

Any hoo.

My New Lyric Video for COYOTE

Behold! Lyric Video.

If there was one thing valuable that came from the pandemic—it was definitely learning the basics of video editing.

Now, I need to find that money, so I can buy that better computer that can handle video editing. My poor computer can't handle it!

It takes four hours to bounce these videos down, and I am sort of flying blind on east locations for words because the processor is incapable of rendering in real time (too much to process for its 2012 i5 processor).

Do I take no for an answer though? Negative. I figure it out. That's what I do.

I think this turned out pretty though—as far as lyric videos are concerned.

I used an old film overlay and some gorgeous time lapse footage of desert landscape.

Happy Saturday folks! Playing lots of gigs this weekend, so I have to run. I have a brunch gig at a Mexican restaurant and then I am playing a release show in Fullerton tonight.

Also, I have a phone meeting with a concert promoter who helps people to discover independent musicians in Kansas City this morning, that is going to help with setting up a listening room show in Kansas City, Missouri! I am honored and so excited for the opportunity.

Life is good when we let it be, and I'm leaning into the good as best I can, while working my ASS off.

Love y'all!

Coyote | A New Single by Mike Vitale | May 26th

Behold: an album cover.

I made something to put in your ears cowpokes and good folks. It is gingerly strolling into your favorite streaming service on May 26th in this year of our Lord, 2023. If I could corral you into a pre-save—I would be amazed. Legitimately amazed. Astounded. Dumbfounded. Other synonyms as well! Exclamation point. There’s a link to pre-save if you fancy doing so:

It does something. Not sure what–but I’ll trust the process.
