about

My #ode to Billy Idol and guitarist, Steve Stevens, took 8 months to complete, and was just released today across the interwebs. I wish to thank trumpeteer, Jacob Kersey, bassist, Billy Gewin, and Good Friends, Colt Elvis Simmons and David Grace, for their creative contributions toward this project! I am very proud, and highly thankful!

I realize she's a siren disguised
her lullaby is injected as her teeth incise
she's highly infectious
she's leavin' me feckless
I follow a deathwish when I hear her breath hiss
eyes without a face
her lips do encase
she's like Eve with an apple
'Arsenic and Old Lace'
[yet I'm drinkin' her down]
what's all this fuss 'bout a psychedelic trip
[when she can murder me and still be hip]
I'm so blue --- she's out there
so ... I'll say my prayers
say my prayers
say my prayers

Michael Ash Sharbaugh Atlanta, Georgia

In addition to space rock and pop music, Philadelphia-born composer Michael Ash Sharbaugh creates deep-layered ambient soundscapes that invoke contemplation. He embraces ‘happy accidents’ as he produces sonic atmospheres that consume the listener, assuming the role of audience himself. His music floats and shimmers; it meanders, lulls, and sometimes haunts. ... more
