Used To Be Even (Now So Odd)

This song has homages to a few of my “heroes”. There are verses for Warren Zevon, Mark Linkous, Charles Bukowski, & Tom Petty. The song was written on an acoustic guitar but I found I liked the sounds of the electric more, so that’s what ended up on the recording.

Like the rest of the songs on ain’t it hard? I did everything myself. I wrote the song, recorded the instrumentation, sang the main vocal, etc. I did have my beautiful wife sing some harmonies though.

You can stream it everywhere you do that, including Spotify, YouTube, Apple Music, etc.

You can read the lyrics on the A.S. Coomer Bandcamp page.

You can also watch and listen to the song in a visualizer for the entirety of ain’t it hard? that was made by Cam Chaney of Flying Saucer Records. Be sure to check out his music and visual work. His brother, Phil Chaney, made the new A.S. Coomer logo, which is featured in Cam’s visualizer.
