30+ YEARS OF CREATING … The Good, the Bad, and the Will to KEEP PUSHING ON.

be relentless: a creative life is a newsletter written by me, musician Nolan Green. I create music under the moniker the grassy knoll (1993-present) and have released 5 albums on the labels Nettwerk and Verve/Antilles. My compositions have appeared in television, film, and video games. Highlights include the Netflix series Bobby Kennedy for President (series theme song), Legion, Incorporated, The Mod Squad, and Roswell.

Other creative endeavors include Photo Editor of CMJ New Music Monthly Magazine (1999-2002), Video Editor for Izotope Software, Down Under Horsemanship, Texas Parks and Wildlife, and Fragile (winner of the Short Corner: Cannes Film Festival Award). 

Also of note, running and drinking coffee bring me joy.

Welcome to my Substack, 30 years of music (the grassy knoll), photography and, most recently, drawings/comics. The good, the bad, and the pursuit to keep on keeping on.

People

For over half my life I’ve been creating music, mostly under the moniker The Grassy Knoll. Originally signed to Nettwerk Records in 1993, followed by Verve/Antilles shortly there after. And, oh man, do I have some stories for you.
