It takes a lot of courage to share original songs with the world. It's a very vulnerable thing.

So to share unedited, original, i-Phone demos, it takes a type of blind enthusiasm - a kind of abject non-concern for one's own ego - an astonishing amount of hubris.

And yet... here we are.

Josh has decided to share with you his exclusive compositions in their most unguarded form... the original demo.

You might recognize some of these songs or at least their final versions. The original demo of "Make It Through" for instance, sways lazily in contrast to the forward motion of the finished song.

Other demos may still yet become The Empty Pockets singles and album tracks of the future. "Let's Get Serrated" and "Broken Down in Bozeman" are completely unreleased.

Some songs may never become official releases for one reason or another. Tunes like "I Noticed You" and "Alone Up There"...

"Rafter and Rung" is a special inclusion from the never released rock opera, The Last Wandering Bard, a mostly finished concept album that hasn't seen the light of day.

Have fun diving in to the raw beginnings of our released (and unreleased) catalog!
