Hello everyone, Kirk here and man, you ever have one of those weeks or you ever had one

0:10.3

of those months?

0:11.6

This past month has kind of been one of those months for me, it has been a busy and

0:15.4

very stressful one.

0:17.0

For a number of reasons I've been trying to wrap up a couple of big musical projects

In this case it is a particular chord progression that I just find myself really drawn to.

1:21.8

You are actually hearing the chord progression behind me right now, it's from a song that
