Counting Sheep

Dirtsmith, October 29, 2023November 1, 2023

Counting Sheep Your favorite (ahem, only) Preachy Variety Act is back with an offering that is (totally not) ready to go live! It’s a brand new song I’ve been working on yesterday and today. Pretty much all my daily allotment of creative energy has been invested into it, and I…
