Open Mic Adventures XCVII: “Perambulating”

The Portly Politico3 Comments

Pickup my newest release, Math: And Other Delights, now!

With so many releases this year, and with more releases in the works (I’m currently plugging away at Spooky Season III), I have kind of lost track of which album and which piece I’m supposed to be featuring here on Open Mic Adventures.  Of course, the title of this series has itself become something as a misnomer, as now I might upload an actual open mic performance just a few times a year.  D’oh!

Regardless, it looks like I’m still on pieces from White Boy Summer, my collection of smooth summer jams.  This week’s feature, “Perambulating,” is an upbeat piece depicting a vigorous summertime stroll.

“Perambulating” is a piano solo with electric bass accompaniment. It’s the second track from White Boy Summer, which I released back in August:

Happy Listening!
