About:

David Paul Christman

 2010, Fleabitten,

 These are songs from the northern part of the state. I grew up in Michigan City, a mile or two from Lake Michigan. I still feel the pull of Lake Michigan, the dunes, Chicago, childhood memories, partial memories, memory of memories, false memories, hazy memories, lazy memories, etc.

It's not surprising to me that I have felt comfortable living in Hawaii. To a little kid, looking North (watching the sailboats sail off to Fort Mackinac, Lake Michigan goes beyond the horizon, off to a far-off-land. The ocean feels that way to me, now. The "singing sands" on the southern Part of Lake Michigan are still my favorite feeling between my toes and are the equal of beaches here on the Big Island. Three hundred million years ago, the lattitude of Indiana was about that of current Hawaii and the shallow ocean, as it dried up, left the amazing crinoids and fossils that define my image of hippy jewelry.
