"I was made in the likeness of the Creator. Therefore, I create."
My name is David Jahns (pronounced "Johns"). I am 23 years old and living in Nashville, TN. I play bass in a band called Farewell Fighter. That is basically consuming my life at the moment. When I'm not busy with Farewell Fighter I write songs and release them as The House and the Human.
There are a million artists out there who are better than myself. I'm not a poet, I'm not a very good singer, and I'm FAR from being an amazing musician.
The songs you can hear below were not written for the sake of catchiness or showing off my musicianship. These songs have meaning to me, and I hope that one or more of them can mean something to you as well. THAT is what this project is about.
I'll do my best to keep this blog interesting. Most of the photos will be from my iPhone as I go about my days. Just as a heads up: I'm pretty obsessed with the sky, music, and food. On that note...I hope you enjoy my blog. Thanks for reading :)
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor

The FIGHT Initiative: The beginning.
Fight (verb) \ˈfīt\
“to put forth a determined effort.”
FIGHT. started as a t-shirt idea for my band in 2010, but ended up turning into something much bigger.
I received a Facebook message on July 8th, 2010 from a fan of my band informing me that our shirt had really helped her grandmother…
Facebook ruined the concept of friendship.
Totally. It’s never a good idea to have walls.
Made this cute video of touring with my best friends!
Best times ever with best friends ever.

I’ve started reading this book like 3 times in my life and never finished it. I’ve actually never read an entire book front to back yet, so wish me luck.

“I can’t save you but I will love you
No, I can’t save you but I will love you
I’d like to think that this is love
lost in second chances without end
This is romance”
CANNOT wait to see them this Friday.

Found this beautiful little gem neglected and out of tune in a ghetto apartment building downtown. I want you.
I feel like the world would be a much better place if everyone thought like this.
