Welcome to my sanctuary of song!
My name is TribuTerry. I am a songwriter/producer and my objective is to create music that leaves a good taste in your ear. This is a songwriter's website, not a performing/recording artist's site. I am presenting my songs here to be heard by potential publishers, collaborators, musicians, singers, and music fans looking for some good old-school music to listen to.
Think of this site as a workshop where songs that are works in progress will evolve over time. This site will be regularly updated with new songs and newer versions of old songs, so please bookmark this site and stop by often! I wrote, arranged and produced all of the songs myself, including music and lyrics. I also presently record all of the instruments and vocals myself on these tunes (unless otherwise noted), but I am beginning to branch out and have others record some tracks for me. Check out the fantastic job Scott Seabock did singing "The Little Things" and "Unconditionally".
Please feel free to contact me if you wish to cover some of this music. Or if you'd like to leave some feedback you can visit the guestbook area.
Also, the lyrics can be viewed while you listen to the music. Hover your mouse over the "Music" tab above and a sub-menu will appear which will display the song titles. Then click the title of any song and the lyrics will appear with a link that allows you to listen to the song while you read the lyrics.
I’ve taken the name TribuTerry because I view my music as “a stream that flows into a larger stream” in more ways than one, like a tributary. I also view my music as a humble tribute of sorts to all those who have nurtured, inspired and enlightened me with their care, music and wisdom.
