New Song - "Good Night"
I wrote a new song tonight - it's called "Good night". It's kind of a pop lullaby with one chord change (Gsus2 to EMaj) that reminds me of some Ben Folds compositions. Please click below to listen!

> Good Night - Mp3 time 2:58 (Geoff Peters original composition)

(For those computer music buffs out there, a midi version is also available by clicking here.)

A new composition and a cover tune
Here are a couple new recordings that I made on my keyboard, that I'd like to share with you!

The first one is an original composition I wrote a couple weeks ago called "Happy Song for You" (click here to listen). It's an uplifting pop ballad with some "triumphant" chords.

The second one is a contemplative waltz, a cover of the first part of a folk song that I forget the name of, but I call it "Folk Song for Calvin" (click here to listen).

As always, feedback is much appreciated!
