LINER NOTES:

Two years ago, I went on a week-long vacation to Michigan that resulted in this album: silvermediaproductions.bandcamp.com/album/michigan-project-4

One year ago, I went on another week-long vacation to Michigan, and THAT resulted in this: silveralt.bandcamp.com/album/michigan-2

And now, for the final piece of this nifty little trilogy, I'm now releasing...

Michigan 3

lol jk, that's not it. You see, This particular vacation was a little bit different, and Michigan was actually the final stop on a roadtrip that also went to South Carolina (relatives), then DC (tourism), then Ohio (rock and roll hall of fame). I think I'll call this album...

Roadtrip 2017

Yea, that's more like it. The title isn't the only thing changing with this release, however. This vacation was two weeks long instead of one, so you know what that means...

"uh... twice as many tracks?"

Exactly, my wistful little audience member. Of course, doing 30 original tracks in two weeks for one release would've been a bit daunting, so I relaxed my own rules a bit and let myself make covers; a bulk of which were recorded on my aunt's piano in South Carolina using an old 5th gen iPod touch.

That's another thing about this album.

Some of you listening may know I'm sitting pretty now with a completely libre DAW setup on my laptop. I didn't entirely stick to that for this release, and used iOS Garageband & Voice Memos for quite a few tracks on this album. That's why I'm using the artist handle "Proprietary Mark!" (the exclamation point is still silent) for this album.

That's about all I can tell you without spoiling too terribly much. You're here to listen to the record, not read me talking about it, yes?

Looking ahead, I'm releasing a brand spankin' new EP on the 4th of July via my main bandcamp (marksilver.bandcamp.com). It's gonna feature two tracks from my August-bound self-titled album, and two tracks that will pop up on some sort of future release.

With that being said, that's it! Get out there and enjoy this album! Download this album! Play this album in VLC! Share this album with your friends! Share this album with your enemies! Share this album with your enemies' friends!

ok, im done now.

PARENTAL ADVISORY:

this album may turn the frogs gay.
