New Single – “Last December”
I wrote this year’s holiday song, “Last December,” with my friend and collaborator Jeremy Messersmith. That’s him on background vocals, guitalele, and all over the vibe of the song. We wrote it to a MOOD-enhanced loop that felt pretty seasonal at the time. Thanks to John Mark Nelson for bass, guitar, mixing, and to Ethan Gruska and Sara Mulford for orchestral holiday atmosphere.
New Single – “Sunshine”
My new single: “Sunshine.” I wrote it with Mondo Cozmo when we were first getting to know each other. He was laughing about how his main goal with this song was to make it sound like Semisonic. Mission accomplished, do you think?

“I won’t stop you doing what you wanna do”.. but I do hope you listen to my new single “Too Much ii” out now. Two people who take everything too far, wanting more love a little too much. Trouble ensues.

New Single, “Fly Safe”
I released my new single! “Fly Safe” song is about saying goodbye to someone you love. It’s about being willing to wait for them, and hoping that their return will be a new beginning.
Single – “Uncanny Valley”
I moved with my family from Minneapolis to the San Fernando Valley in LA in 2011, and I’m still getting used to it. I find LA to be warm, welcoming, impersonal, weird, and scary at the same time. “Uncanny Valley” is about what it’s like for me to be a songwriter living here in the Valley in 2018.
New Single – “We Ain’t Telling”
“We Ain’t Telling” is the first of several monthly singles I’m going to be releasing! I wrote this one a couple years ago during a two-month stretch when I was writing a song every day. Enjoy!
“Yoko”
Hi friends – here’s a song called “Yoko.” A few years ago, I called some musician friends and we made this recording of it. The performance we captured feels like a dream to me, and that’s what the story sounds like, too. So I decided to share it with you again. I think about the people in the lyrics almost every day, even though I never met them. So here they are in a song. Hope you enjoy it. Peace, DW
