Deeper Than The Vine

I wrote this a while ago while I was living in Japan for a bit. The Japan part really doesn't have anything to do with the song, but it's kind of a "fun fact," if you're into those.

I played this song in the "Williamsburg Live Songwriter's Competition 2006," or WLSC for short, held in Brooklyn, NY, and I got 1st place! woohoo!!

The song is the first track on my album, which is available here:

and also here on itunes:

Thanks for watching!

Nick,

The resonance in your voice always complements the cello so well. Keep up the good work, and great choice of instrument!

[mukmewx]

great music man, found you on pandora! make an album dude!

[Rasts]

My guitar is tuned in fifths, I want to do a cover of this. Please could you send me the lyrics, its hard to hear in this recording.

[Rasts]

This is so amazing. I wish this was on a god audio recording, PLEASE MAKE AN ALBUM

[phjmez]

damn, i like this,

it got like a bluesy sound that is just irresistable

[twizzlerite]

I'm not sure what you're saying, but it doesn't matter. I LOVE THIS!

[alexaod]

I think you should get in touch with Kanon Wakeshima, I think you can have great success both in the U.S. and Japan!!

[otakuattack321]

I'll be angry when it happens, but I know you will, no, MUST become famous someday, because it's certainly what you deserve. You are amazing, and one of the reasons I love the cello (even if I play piano). However, when you do get famous, please keep being this awesome ;)

I really would like to do this on violin:O

Do you perhaps have sheet music or do you learn it by ear?

[itsroulettedares]

Do you have any published sheet music that can be bought?... thanks to pandora i found you as well, beautiful! AMAZING!

[SekC4Girls]

If you read your comments I hope you read this one, you can lay down a beat that puts my guitar to shame, hope you stay true to yourself, its not about the fame its about the music, still, you should have T-shirts bro, 'cuz i'd buy tons
