New track: Big Peccadillos

Some characters walk right into your imagination, kick off their shoes, and start talking. Big Peccadillos is about one of those guys.

You’ve seen him around—hood up on a 90-degree day, trimming the lawn with scissors, socks drying on a line he strung between a tomato cage and a rake. He’s not lazy. He’s not crazy. He just has… big peccadillos.

Told in his own words, the story unfolds through a series of oddball confessions—each a little vignette of misunderstood brilliance. From weather-inappropriate fashion to poetic entanglements with the preacher’s wife, our narrator lives by his own logic and doesn’t apologize for it.

The chorus comes like a shrug and a grin:
“I’m not broken… I just got big peccadillos.”
