SOUND ON! Portage to Polly is based on a true story. My family and I were camped on Canisbay Lake, in Algonquin Park. I suggested a day trip to Polly Lake, about 2 km that-a-way. See map for details. The solid black line connecting the two lakes represents a portage, meaning we’d have to carry one of our canoes. We had two, but I figured we could pile into one; us and just enough food and water for the day. I promised we’d be back by noon, and made elaborate plans in case we weren’t, but all was contingent on one thing… I’m excited to announce the release of Portage to Polly. Listen now!

A sample of my music. Various originals performed live.

I like how you move The way that you groove I like to make romance I like how you dance Dance baby Dance baby Promises promises That’s why this song is Actually beautiful Sabrina was so… Wrapped in herself Took me a while But I made her smile That’s when I knew This woman could dance Dance baby Dance baby Promises promises That’s why this song is Actually beautiful I do apologize She invited me home I had no choice. Didn’t stand a chance I mean, you shoulda’ seen her dance Dance baby Dance baby Promises promises That’s why this song is Actually beautiful Dance baby Dance baby Promises promises That’s why this song is That’s why this song is That’s why this song is Actually beautiful ’Cause I wrote it for you =L= _____ Music and lyrics by Leo Di Croce

It’s a hell of time to feel like being a tracker You can only track what you can see A machine might get you further Than footprints in a forest A nose can smell the trouble on the way It’s a hell of a time to feel like being a human Gender’s not the only “trans” for me Maybe you started as a One Being human’s kinda fun I’ll sign you up and make sure that it’s done It’s a hell of a time to feel like being programmed Part of you will know just what to do The rest of its a buffer In case you want to suffer The indignity of eternity It’s a hell of a time to feel like being social A thousand likes will be our eulogy Unless the bugs are fixed Unless we break some sticks And leave some footprints in the fucking ground It’s a hell of time to feel like being a trucker The freedom that you seek is up that hill. Or is it? You‘ll know it when you’re in it You’ll smell it. Best remember it I’m glad to see your footprints I’m glad to hear your footprints I’m glad it’s us. It’s always us We are the hill

You got that far away look in your eyes You know that makeup and hat’s your disguise Don’t think I’d recognize you if it wasn’t for you talking to Martin Scorsese— But wait here comes Scarlet. Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera Bob, I dig your music I like the that way you play I like that line: “I left my jeans on the river bed.”— But wait here comes Scarlet. Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera That thing she said about Gene (Simmons) That swirl, around her eyes The knife, her hat, her violin She’s so tall. Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera Even her driver, that’s cool, has a scene Says how he’s never ever before seen People mesmerized like that Watching a man in a hat And I’m sure he meant to say Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera Scarlet Rivera [Dear Mr Dylan - Your Rolling Thunder Review documentary was smashing. You and your ragtag band inspired this song. If you see Ms. Rivera, can you please let her know, I wrote it for her.]
