Biography:
There is a popular chapter of American mythology that pertains to The Highway. It tells of a two-way ribbon of blacktop running endlessly through our past to our future, linking city to country, offering escape and motion and freedom to travel anywhere the imagination might wander. In this chapter, The Highway is both means and end, metaphor and reality.
And down that mythical Highway there is a Bar. Inside that Bar is a Stage. On that Stage is a Band. That Band is the Moondoggies.

I do not fear the Undertaker
When he comes to
Lay my soul down
Lay my soul down
Oh touch the hands of those behind
Passerbys gonna sing goodbyes
To those who fear
Hold on sweet dears
Nothin's gonna change how you dream
There's no way home
Wander down old days
Wander still on old ways
Still as ever
Em
I'll do whatever it takes to set my heart free
I'll do whatever it takes to set my heart free
I'll do whatever it takes to set my heart free
To set my heart free
