Rich Bronson Perspective on Feeling Kind of Squirrely

My music explores concepts that fill my everyday life. Concepts like Love, Marriage and Mental Health.

Feeling Kind of Squirrely (yes I know sometimes it says Kinda. That was a case of being overanxious to release.) is about ADHD and Anxiety. Something I and my kids struggle with. But its also a fun song and embraces it because it is a part of who we are.

The next release By My Side will be about my 22 year marriage. I look forward to people hearing it when it releases Valentines Day 2025.

I do not really remember a time when I was not a performer. My earliest memory performing on stage was singing solo "Tomorrow" from the musical Annie at an elementry school play. Even before that though I would record myself singing "Rainbow Connection" into a tape recorder. I still sing that song to this day and the composer Paul Williams is still an all time favorite.

By sophmore year in High School I was playing in bands and writing the graduation song for the graduating class that year but it wasnt until I started doing actual gigs. 

A few of my early acts that led me here

Ravage - Early duo act with my best friend Zack. It was imagination play but it led me here.

Sneak Attack - 80's pop band. I played bass and switched to guitar when the guitar player quit.

Suspicion - 80's  Glam Metal band. I had hair to my waist and I knew how to work it.

Grimfish - I joined this band in college. It later morphed into Cheenon and now to Dirty Manors who I still play with.

Dick Butt Kiss and the Tightends - Novelty band. I see acts like we were alot now but in the early 90s it was pretty novel

As a kid  I was a huge Bruce Springsteen fans and I think this song plays into that kind of sound. My ideal band has been to do his lineup when he plays with the Miami Horns. I never really had the opportunity to do that lineup before but going in the studio allows you dto do the things you always wanted but never had the chance.

So Genre? I guess that. I just call it Rock and Roll!

There are many but probably Bruce Springsteen. Not only have I been a fan since I was a kid but without his music I would of never started dating my wife. We bonded over his musc.

Music is a passion, always have been. I cannot imagine a world where I do not make music. Honestly its the most fun I know how to have.
