August was a decent month of downloads and sales of Human Project Music for August, 2026. Lots of countries…(Over 30) but many are only one or two so I only list the top 10. But first, here are the top 10 downloads. What is interesting about this is that some of my older songs that have not done all that well in the past in terms of sales/downloads have made it into the top 10. And there is a new #1, “Drive, Drive, Drive” from my 2008 release Human Project II, Humanized.  My V8 Ford and Bad Momma, the next two are from the same release.  This makes me happy because I had that bad boy mastered at Sterling Sound In NYC and it sparkles. There were so many good songs from that CD, that they are sprinkled through-out all 3 of my Essential Human Project releases. Here are the top 10 downloads for August. 

Drive, Drive, Drive
My V8 Ford
Bad Momma
River Rock
Standing in the Shadows
Hard Work Blues
High Anxiety
Not Fade Away
Red Vet Roll
Call Me the Breeze

On another interesting note, “River Rock” appears in the top 10 for the first time ever! It's a cajun themed party tune with a cajun squeeze box blasting away and a killer fiddle on it as well. Its from my 2011 release, “Last Train Out.”  I wrote all the songs in the top 10 except Not Fade Away and Call Me The Breeze.

Here are the top countries that downloaded my music.

USA. Great Britain. Switzerland. Canada. Australia. Italy. Netherlands. Romania. Egypt. Serbia. Mexico. 

I am grateful for all that support me on this solo journey I have been on for sometime. I am only as good as all of your support! It is much appreciated!  Spread the word! You are my publicists! Below is a cover shoot for Human Project II, Humanized. Here is the link to this release. It's my best one!

What's Happenin My Friends!
Another decent month for Human Project Downloads with close to 400 for the month of May and around 50 countries that downloaded, although the bulk of them always come from the top 10-15 that I always list.  There was a new number 1 this month…"Fast Train," that was originally on 2017's “ Humanize.” You can also get it on Essential Human Project 2005-2023. I am putting the link to it right below, because it's full of Human Project gems.

https://thehumanproject.hearnow.com/essential-human-project-2005-2022

Here are the top downloads for May!

Fast Train
Bar Room Meltdown
Whiskey
Call Me The Breeze
Highway 58
High Anxiety
Friday Thang
57 Channels
The Creepers
My V8 Ford

From this top 10, I wrote 8 of them.  

On an interesting side note, I recorded “Call Me The Breeze,” in my home studio in around 2010 or so. I never released it until recently. It's raw and rockin, so I am glad I did because people do like it.

The top countries that downloaded my music were as follows:

USA. Argentina. Canada. Italy. Australia. France. Spain. Switzerland. Turkey. Great Britain. Czechoslovakia. Germany. 

Also… I just released a new Human Project song…"Born In Mississippi." It takes awhile to get into the CDBaby accounting system. I am very optimistic about this new release.. a raw and acoustic delta blues type track with a killer lead track by my friend AC Myles who lives in the same area as I do in Central, CA.

Here is the link…get ya some!

On the new music front, I just re-released Bad Momma 3 weeks ago, and it did climb all the way up to #12 on my downloads, but it has yet to really work itself into the system yet.

My song that I just recently wrote, “Born In Mississippi,” will release on May 22nd on all music platforms! I will keep you posted as this release date draws closer.

Here is a link to a little YouTube Video I just recently did regarding this release!

May 4, 2026.

Greetings friends and fans. I have a few updates for you regarding my music. (Human Project Music.)

I recently did a YouTube video talking about my new release “Bad Momma,” and also about future projects in the works. Here is the link to that YouTube Video.

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Y_A13p96hOA

Most of you know that “Bad Momma,” has released.  It was originally on Human Project II, Humanized released in 2008. I felt like it didn't get the exposure it needed, so I re-released it.  It does really rock and was mastered at Sterling Sound in NYC by Steve Fallone.  The Link it below..Easy to get, just click the link.

https://thehumanproject.hearnow.com/bad-momma

Here is the link to my most recent podcast, where I feature Paul McCartney and his solo work, mostly with Wings.

https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/thehumanproject/episodes/2026-04-21T08_20_19-07_00

Finally… I recently wrote a song called, “Born in Mississippi,” and will release it next month around the middle to the end of May. It's a sparse acoustic driven song about sharecropping and Jim Crow laws in Mississippi, but of course many other states had these same laws as well.  The track features a smoking guitar solo by AC Myles of Fresno, CA.  It has a cool vibe to it and I look forward to putting it out there so you can hear it!

That's all I have for you at this time. I appreciate all of your support!  If you haven't signed up for the newsletter, do it! Its on the main page, just pop in your email and get on the mailout list!

And…here is the cover for Born in Mississippi!

Peace and Love!!!

Greetings friends and fans.
March was an awesome month for Human Project Downloads!  450 from over 25 different countries!  Mercy! And…the cream of my songs is starting to rise to the top!  Very happy Human!  Here are the top 10 downloads for March.

Whiskey
High Anxiety
Stormy Night In Texas
Norwegian Wood
Bar Room Meltdown
Highway 58
Standing in the Shadows
The Creepers
Fast Train
My V8 Ford

Of these top 10, I wrote 9 of them.  “Norwegian Wood” is a Lennon/McCartney composition off their album Rubber Soul.  A big large percentage came from my first Essential Human Project release 2005-2023. At the time, I actually thought it was going to be the only one I would do.  But as you well know, this was not the case. I had too many good songs left, so I just had to put out two more.  You can get any of them at the top of my website here, under Essential Human Project releases in the top bar at the top.

Here are the top countries that downloaded my music,

USA. Germany. Great Britain. Canada. Switzerland. France. Australia. Italy. Spain. Brazil. The Netherlands. Denmark.

On the new music front, I have re-released my song, “Bad Momma.”  I have explained why in earlier blogs and newsletters.  It came out yesterday, April the 6th.  Here is the link where you can get it from multiple sources.  Go get ya some!

https://thehumanproject.hearnow.com/bad-momma

And…some of you are well aware that I finally wrote another song after a long lay-off. It's called “Born In Mississippi.” I recorded it in my home studio and played all the instruments. But I got my friend AC Myles to lay down a hot lead guitar track. It's bad ass! Look for it in mid-May!  I will keep you posted my friends!  

Thanks for all your continued support on this long journey I started back in 2005.  You are much valued and appreciated!

I have recorded many songs on this Boss BR 1600, including "Born In Mississippi.

After a very long hiatus, I wrote a new song called, “Born In Mississippi.”  It is all about what Sharecropping was like on the farms in Mississippi after the Civil War.  This is just a snippet from the song. It will be released later this spring.  Enjoy.

Well…Another very strong month for Human Project Sales, with close to 500 Downloads being sold from close to 50 countries, but the core of the purchases came from around 10 countries. The cream continues to rise to the top, which is encouraging because this indicates that people are continuing to find my music and dig even deeper into it.  We had some interesting songs show up in the top 10, so here we go…with the top 10!

Bar Room Meltdown
High Anxiety
My V8 Ford
Norwegian Wood
Whiskey
Highway 58
Stormy Night in Texas
Not Fade Away
Looking For My Freak Flag
Drive, Drive, Drive

I wrote all of these, except:  Norwegian Wood (Lennon-McCartney) and Not Fade Away (Buddy Holly)
It is interesting to see “Norwegian Wood” make its way up to #4 after a long absence from the top 10. I always felt this version was very good. Very sparse, with a cool mandolin taking the place of a Sitar that George Harrison used.

Here are the top 10 Countries that downloaded:

USA. Germany. Australia. Italy. Switzerland. France. Great Britain. Brazil. Sweden. New Zealand. Mexico. Canada.

I am very encouraged that my music still sells likes this. I haven't put anything new out in sometime. But there is plenty out there for people to find, and plenty more people that haven't even discovered it yet.

On my main website, go to the top bar and you will see Essential Human Project Releases.  There are links to all 3 that will take you to every site you can download my music from.  Lots of hard work on my part to get all this set up, but it's what I do to get my music out there, since I have no help from any professional sources.

So….Thanks for your support of Human Project Music. Something that began in 2005.

The Human
March 2026.

Greetings! Happy New Year!
I just got my download-sales report from CDBaby, and it was another pretty good month for Human Project Music.  There was a total of 430 downloads from well over 25 countries.  Here is a breakdown of the top 10 downloaded songs.

Bar Room Meltdown
Highway 58
The Creepers
Whiskey
Lookin For My Freak Flag
My V8 Ford
Stormy Night In Texas
High Anxiety
Friday Thang
Drive, Drive, Drive

Bar Room Meltdown has been steadily climbing up the list and has knocked off Highway 58 for a couple of months now for the top slot.  Of particular interest is that I wrote all of the songs in the top 10.  I am pretty proud of that. Also, songs like “The Creepers,” are climbing the list. This has always been one of my best songs that has not gotten near the exposure it should have.

Here are the top countries that downloaded my music.  

USA. Spain. Australia. Canada. Switzerland. Brazil. Argentina. Great Britain. Italy. Germany. Denmark. The Czech Republic. Finland.

The top downloads came from these releases:

Essential Human Project I 2005-2025   127
Essential HP II 71
Essential HP II 52
Humanize 45

Thanks for all your support of Human Project Music.  I don't have any help at all with promotion of my music. No label. No agent. No publicist. I just put it out there and people find it.  I am also very proud of this fact as well.

Again..Happy New Year. Stay well. Sign up for my mailing list if you want to get more frequent information. It's on the main page of my website. Just pop in your email. It's safe.

Greetings! Happy New Year!

I have the information and statistics for my downloads/sales for the month of December 2025. It was a decent month for Human Project Music with 430 downloads from 30 different countries, with 10 of them always making up the bulk of the sales.  Also, there was a change in my #1 downloaded song!  Highway 58 has always been #1 for the most part since it was released in 2017 on the Humanize CD.  But it was knocked off its perch by Bar Room Meltdown, and Whiskey came in and got the # 2 slot.  So..here are the top downloads for December 2025. 

Bar Room Meltdown
Whiskey
Highway 58
Stormy Night In Texas
Friday Thang
The Creepers

If you haven't heard it, it has a Cajun vibe to it with and bad ass squeeze box accordion ripping all through the song.  It is a party song to the max. 

The top countries that provided the bulk of the downloads were:

USA. Canada. Switzerland. Great Britain. France. Australia. Italy. Mexico. Germany. China. Spain. 

Thanks for your continued support of Human Project Music. I am very grateful to all of you that support my music. A hobby, but one I take very seriously.  

Wishing you a great start to the New Year, 2026! Mercy!

December 2025.

November 2025 was one of the best download-sales month for Human Project Music in quite some time.  I would like to thank all friends and fans world wide for taking such a strong interest in my music, I write most all of it myself, and produce and promote myself.  No fancy marketing agencies, this is all just grassroots stuff and word of mouth spreading it all around.

Highway 58
Bar Room Meltdown
Whiskey
Stormy Night In Texas
Standing in the Shadows
The Creepers
Fast Train
18 Wheels
Drive, Drive, Drive,
Hard Work Blues
Lookin For My Freak Flag

Thanks so much for all your support!

This is an older interview I did when I released “Humanize” in 2017, but it is a good one where I talk about the origins of my music, influences, and the process I use when going into the studio.  Pretty comprehensive. Was honored to be asked do it. So enjoy and thanks for your support.

Loyd Vandergriff is The Human.
Check out the tab on the website where all his Essential Human Project Releases are located. There are 3 of them highlighting a 17 year recording career.

September was another good month for sales/downloads of my music. I had just at 350 downloads. Approximately 20 countries are responsible for the bulk of these sales, but all total…over 40 countries did download at least one song. There are always some surprises and this month is no real exception with “Whiskey,” climbing all the way to the Number 2 downloaded song. I recorded Whiskey in my home studio and played all the instruments and did all the vocals, and I then sent it to AC Myles who put that hot lead track on it.  Another surprise was “Life," also recorded at home. It has great lyrics about Life in general and how good it is to be alive. It made it to # 10. I am glad people are finding these older songs, as well as my good stuff that is always in the top 10. Highway 58 of course was my #1 download and except for a few rare exceptions, it has been for 9 years straight.  

Here are the top 10 for September 2025.

Highway 58
Whiskey
Bar Room Meltdown
Juke Joint Showdown
18 Wheels
Standing in the Shadows
Friday Thang
Call Me The Breeze
Fast Train
Life

I wrote all of these songs except “Call Me The Breeze,” which was written by JJ Cale.

Top Countries that downloaded my songs:

USA. Germany. Canada. China. Australia. Norway. France. Spain. Mexico. Sweden. Peru. Thailand. Switzerland.

My music can be found on all major music sites like Apple Music etc., just watch out for another Human Project from England that is not me and they continually mix me up with.  The links to my 3 Essential Human Project releases are at the top of my website, just look  for that and follow the Yellow Brick Road.

This is the link to my most recent podcast, “Human's Show,” that features Hot Blues and Smokin Rock.

Sept 2025.

What's happenin my friends. I have been pretty negligent with my blogs here, so I just will give a couple of updates.  I haven't been doing much with my music except for a little promotion here and there. I do all this myself.  I just did a little YouTube Short using my song “Standing in the Shadows” as the background music.  I have mentioned before that it is probably my favorite of all the songs I have written over a 17 year period.  I am still planning on a little studio time with my friend AC Myles, but he has been busy gigging, mostly up in the Bay Area of California.  He is pretty hot right now live and in more and more demand.  If you live around these parts, make sure to see him live and tell him The Human said hello.

I have done several podcasts, I will put a link to one of my more recent ones below as well. I will be getting my sales report for the month of August soon, and of course I will give you a summary of all that.  I always hold my breath waiting to see how that will be since I don't have any professional help with promotions, people just find it.

Everybody take care. The weather in the USA has been wild and crazy. It's hot in Central CA, but fall is just around the corner.  Until next time….

Late August…2025.

Another month has passed, and I have my top downloads/sales of my music for the month of July 2025. Statistics provided by CDBaby.

It was a good month for me with 425 downloads from around 30 countries again with 10 or 12 providing the bulk of the downloads.  This time, a couple of cover songs I did snuck into the top 10.  "57 Channels and Nothing On" is a Bruce Springsteen song.  The interesting thing about this one is I recorded it at home and I played all the instruments myself, did all the vocals..and even dropped in an harmonica.  It was my #3 download.  The #4 downloaded song was “Call Me The Breeze.” Written by JJ Cale and made popular by Lynyrd Skynyrd.  I recorded this one at home as well, played all the instruments and vocals, but I did have my guitarist at the time, Dwayne Janzen come over and put the lead guitar track down.  He killed it in one take.  I have had this song saved for over 10 years before I finally decided to release it. It is on Essential Human Project III, that released less than a year ago.  
 

Here are the top 10 downloads:

Highway 58
18 Wheels
57 Channels, Nothin On
Call Me The Breeze
Lookin For My Freak Flag
Fast Train
Stormy Night In Texas
Jimmy's Juke Joint
Juke Joint Showdown
Hi Fallutin Momma

All of these songs can be found on my Essential Human Project series. The link is at the top of my website. Besides the two covers I discussed, I wrote the rest.

Top Countries to download my songs:

USA. Canada. Great Britain. Australia. France. Switzerland. South Korea. Italy. Netherlands. Germany. Ireland.

Here is the link to a YouTube Video I did that went over the top downloads set to my song Juke Joint Showdown.

July 2025.

Greetings…
It's been awhile since I posted a blog.  I have my sales/Download report for the month of June and it was another strong month for Human Project Music.  Of the top 10 songs, I wrote all of them except for one which was "For What It's Worth"," a song by Buffalo Springfield written by Stephen Stills. I recorded it at home and had AC Myles of Fresno put the lead guitar on it.  

The top 10

Highway 58
For What It's Worth
Bar Room Meltdown
My V8 Ford
Looking For My Freak Flag
Standing in the Shadows
Stormy Night in Texas
High Anxiety
Keep it to Yourself
Juke Joint Showdown

Both “For What It's Worth,” and Keep it to Yourself are new to the top 10.  

The top countries that downloaded were as follows:  (there are more, but these are the ones with the bulk of the downloads)

USA, TAIWAN, FRANCE, GREAT BRITAIN, AUSTRALIA, GERMANY, CANADA, SWITZERLAND, EGYPT, SPAIN, BRAZIL, MEXICO, THE NETHERLANDS.

All of my music can be found on all the music sites, but you have to watch out for that other Human Project out of England.  Stay with it and you will find me.  On my website here, look at the tool bar at the top and you will see Essential Human Project releases. Click there and all 3 are listed with links. Easy money.  

Thanks for all of your support.

Human. June 2025.

I wrote “Ode To Nam” 5 years ago.  I recorded it at home.  This video also is a good history lesson on Vietnam.  You probably are unaware that I was a US History teacher in High School for 19 years.

May was a good month for Human Project downloads with 825 songs being downloaded from well over 25 different countries.  There was a new number one that previously  had been totally off the radar in terms of any sales, but for some reason, it ended up the number one download!  It was Ode To Nam, a song about veterans of the Viet Nam war and the cold reception they received when they returned home. One possible reason for this new found popularity could have been the fact that it was Memorial Day at the end of May.  For whatever reason,  it was downloaded almost a 100 times.  Here are the top 10, all written by The Human, (Loyd Vandergriff) the main cog and chief architect of the Human Project.

Ode To Nam
Highway 58
My V8 Ford
Lookin For My Freak Flag
Blues State of Mind
Jimmy's Juke Joint
Goin South
Stormy Night In Texas
Friday Thang
Juke Joint Showdown (Remastered)

The top countries that downloaded were:

USA. Great Britain. Australia. France. Switzerland. Italy. Germany. Spain. Sweden. Mexico. Netherlands.

Most all of these songs can be sound on one of the Essential Huma Project Series that I released starting with the first one in 2023 and the last one in 2025.  Here is the link that will give you access to all 3. 
https://humanrocks.net/essential-human-project-releases-here

Unfortunately, Ode to Nam is not on any of these, but just search it out on any of the popular music sites such as Apple Music, or Spotify and you will find it. (Ode to Nam, The Human Project)

Always remember that in their infinite wisdom, they mixed up my music with another Human Project out of England.   They are more popular than I am, so they most often come up in searches. But stay with it and you will find my music.

I am encouraged by this latest download report.  More people are finding my music and checking it all out in more depth. That is…cool.

Summer is upon us, and so is the heat. Mercy.

Take care and until next time……

Another Garage Band Story, this one goes over how I got started playing in the mid-1960's in a small town in Central California called Corcoran. It was an agricultural oriented town with a pretty small high school, maybe 800 students total.  I played in these bands for all 4 years of High School.  It's a pretty interesting story.  My rock n roll roots run deep. So here is the story…

Stories From My High School Days Playing In Garage Bands in the Late 60's Volume 1.

What's Happenin?
I haven't put up a blog in awhile, my apologies for that. I usually put up my top downloads for the month (April) but CDBaby has things screwed up right now.  So I am working through this mess to get all that right. You have to spend a lot of energy in life making sure things are done right on a variety of issues. What I have been doing mostly the past month is working on promotion of my music. I am a small fish in a big pond, but I have good songs and I just try to get people's attention. Once people really listen to my songs, almost everyone likes and enjoys them. Over the years, I have put a lot of work into writing and recording them and producing them. Feel free to share my music with your friends or anyone else you thing might like my stuff. You are my little army of loyal supporters. I appreciate you.

Someone has been listening to my music for quite awhile and they wrote this about my style:

The Human Project is the musical brainchild of Loyd Vandergriff, delivering original hot blues and smokin rock straight out of Central California. His influences come from many sources over many years of listening and playing music. With gritty vocals and lyrics rooted in life's real edges, The Human Project blends vintage blues-rock energy with a modern punch. From bar room burners like Bar Room Meltdown to the smoldering Stormy Night in Texas, The Human channels the spirit of classic roadhouse rock with a storyteller's soul. It's not just music-it's a vibe, a message and a mission. He really is a diamond in the rough just looking to be found.

Here are a few promotional images I have been using in many of my social media sites. I used an AI program to generate these, I know this approach comes with limitations, but I like some of them, so I use them.

This is what the stage would look like if I showed up live, but I would add a Hammond B3 organ into this mix.
 

AI created image. Again, it has it limitations and can get a little trippy, but I use some of them.  

Thanks for reading the blog. Again, feel free to share my music with others. It's a grassroots effort and you are part of it. I don't have anyone on a professional level helping me with promotion at all.

Thanks and keep it Rockin…Human Style!

PS, there should be a track for you to listen too, maybe even download it for free. 57 channels by Bruce Springsteen. Enjoy!

Greetings!
I just got my sales/download report from CD Baby, and my latest “Essential Human Project III” has definitely worked its way into the system. My song 18 Wheels, that is included on it, roared all the way to my #1 Download for March. In fact, 6 songs from this release are in the top 10.  So, here we go with the top 10 Downloads for March 2025. In all, there were close to 400 total downloads.

18 Wheels
Highway 58
Looking For My Freak Flag
Life
Something Big
Cabin Down Below
Hard Work Blues
Not Fade Away
Bar Room Meltdown
Stormy Night In Texas

I wrote all these accept for “Something Big and Cabin Down Below,” that were both written by Tom Petty and Not Fade Away, which is a Buddy Holly tune.

The top countries downloading my music were as follows:
USA. Canada. Great Britain. Australia. Denmark. Mexico. France. Austria. Switzerland. Italy.

This is the link to my latest podcast. It is an old school rocker. You don't hear this music much anywhere else, even on Satellite Radio, which is slowly turning more commercial sounding driven by playlist from outside sources.  The sources for my podcast is quite simply, me.

Here is the link:

Greetings my friends. I had another good month of downloads for February.  My newest release, Essential Human Project III is slowly getting into the system, but not full blown yet. It is a slow process.  I am happy with my top 10 in terms of sales.  Some of my better songs have worked their way to the top, so I guess that validates the statement that the cream always rises to the top.  I also had a good core of 10-15 countries that always reflect the bulk of the downloads, although there are more that do as well.   These are my top downloaded songs.

Highway 58
Fast Train
My V8 Ford
Drive, Drive, Drive
High Anxiety
Bar Room Meltdown
Juke Joint Showdown
Goin South
Something Big
Working Too Hard
18 Wheels

I wrote all songs above except for “Something Big,” which was written by Tom Petty.  

The top Countries to download were:
USA. Denmark. Australia. France. Great Britain. Canada. Italy. Mexico. Netherlands. Indonesia.

I hope for a little better report next month, because my newest one should be showing up more into the system. Also, more are finding my music in spite of the fact that there is another Human Project out of England that my music gets mixed up with. I have tried to get this fixed, but you simply can't deal with YouTube or Google. The bureaucracy  is too thick and impersonal.  They just don't care.

Here is a link to my most recent Podcast.  A Blues one. I have a couple of my songs on it.
