****** Formerly known as ... And Then I Found Fifty Dollars ******

Ray Boozer was born the son of a coal miner and a Struts waitress in the back of a 1954 Ford Country Wagon in Jacksonville, Alabama. The middle child of 13, Ray used music as a means of separating himself from his siblings, two of whom were also named Ray. He spent hours in the shed with his drumkit, guitar, bass, and microphone he bought with the money he got from his paper route and collecting soda bottles. Armed with his love of pastoral landscapes, old rusty things, and Rush, Ray set out to share his songs with the rest of Calhoun County, and perhaps the rest of the world.

Under DJ's, contact Chris, Dave, and Reg, and under Village, go nuts. Texting is a great, easy way to request stuff.

All-Time Low (Stars Align Cover)
Fun, fun story behind this cover. It's a long one. John Stephens, of Neve and Stars Align, wrote this song. I really, really did not. The real version of this song, and many other neato songs to boot, can be discovered at http://www.starsalign.net/ or http://www.myspace.com/starsalign
Licensed Cover
Rock

Unity
This is version number three of this puppy. Probably our catchiest thing so far, with the possible exception of "Waiting," which is still being recorded.

AAA Glam Metal
h h
Momma's Gonna Do What She Can
This is a song about a girl I used to work with. She was a single mother a little older than me with a daughter a few years younger than me. So one day I got all pensive about it, and this song is the result. This is a demo, so I (Jon Bernreuter) played and sang everything, then mixed and mastered it using GarageBand.

Folk/Acoustic Rock/Americana
h h
Space Chiggers
This is arguably my crowning achievement as a musician. This particular version is old, but until I rerecord the song it's passable. The original version of this song was written by Nick Vance and I, but this version is influenced by the way my bandmates in ... And Then I Found Fifty Dollars - Nick Cox, Nick Vance, Brian Perrin, and Joey Troup - played them live. I recorded, mixed and mastered this version in 2006.

Progressive Rock

So obviously the "remixes" and "updated songs" mentioned from two years ago do not reflect the current audio fidelity. Except for "Space Chiggers," which hopefully I'll get started on today. But that's what I said yesterday.

I'm having trouble with my page now, guys. I can't get my songs loaded. Keep checking back; hopefully the support people can undo whatever I did.

"Space Chiggers", "Unity", and "Momma's Gonna Do What She Can" have been updated. All three have been remixed, and the latter has a new vocal track and a guitar solo intro.
