Creaturely by Tom Swafford
This is my submission for the 2025 RPM Challenge, which is to write and record an album during the month of February. I used the opportunity to process some feelings around the current state of the country. All of the text comes from the forward to Project 2025, written by Kevin D. Roberts, president of the Heritage Foundation. I would like to thank our cat, Willow (aka Kittinu), for posing for the cover art.
