about

PWRHR3 - aka part 3 of the 'Captain Science' trilogy.

Music and vocals recorded between 1996 and 2023, though many of the vocals were recorded in 2022/2023.

The two volumes of 'Heirlooms' are a re-imagining of a long unfinished album (a 'double CD' if you will) that began around 2005, the same way that the 'Captain Science Power Hour' was a re-imagining of a trilogy of albums I recorded in college.

Strange to finally finish this big batch of 'new' songs though, if I'm being honest. But, very nice that I'll finally be able to retire the old DAW I've been using since the late 90s (that crashes 4 out 5 times I try and record stuff). Also comforting to retire this amazingly still functional guitar audio interface that I have (easily 20 years old at this point).

Thanks for tuning in. Hope to not take 20 years to make the next one.
