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.

Momma's Gonna Do What She Can
This is about a girl, or should I say woman, I used to work with. She was pretty awesome, to the point that I wrote a song about her. I had to fill in some gaps in the story creatively just because I don't know everything about her situation, so some details in the song are not accurate, and some of them are probably pretty far off. I took what I knew and ran with it. The core of the narrative is factual, though. Waitress at the bakery, single mother, and the lot. I have no idea about the H

Limelight
This is a song by Rush. If you don't know this song it's time to learn. I added some dynamics and beefed up the drum part just a little. Enjoy!

Space Chiggers
Formerly known as "The Excessively Happy Song" back when I thought all songs had to be about something, this song was conceived in my senior year of high school with fellow founding member, bassist Nick Vance. The song turned out so well that inspired the conception of this very band, probably about five years before any of us were really ready to handle the responsibility.
This song has become what I'm best known for, and with good reason. It's pretty damn good.

AOR glam metal. Next time the ambient mics should be closer to the drums.

Fringe Factor
Some people have described this as "art metal" a la Incubus. I was going for 311-tinged post-hardcore. Whatever it is, it's melodic, but the chorus apparently needs to be more "climactic".

Lesbians Intrigue Me
I made this up on the spot years ago, with the only set goal being to say "I'm not your father's sister" in the chorus. The original item is dated technologically, so I updated it to this version, which has a lot of additional aural easter eggs. Enjoy!

Voices Carry (as made popular by Virgos Merlot)
Apparently covering this song is really popular on this site. The funny thing is we actually did that five years ago, and with more originality than most, so why not jump on the bandwagon now? Try to sing it like THIS. :) http://www.virgos.ws/
