I just posted a YouTube slideshow for "17 Years," a new ned's demos song & my way of saying farewell to Maryland's Brood X cicadas & hello to summer.
Here's the link:

(Lyrics may be accessed below video.)
The song starts in '87 when I lived near Wyman Park in B'more, feeling creeped out by the Confederate monuments unheard of in my native Long Island, then on to 2004, 2021 & ... the Future?
The strumming and lead vocal tracks were recorded in partnership with real live Brood Xers contributing background vocals.
If you enjoy Magnetic Fields, Guided by Voices, or other lo-fi alt-rock or folk, maybe you'll like it.
Happy summer!
