about

Music is an outlet through which I come to further understand myself and others. A large part of that process involves being with other people - in the studio, on stage, in unfamiliar cities. The pandemic continues to put a spotlight on how much I value and miss the experience of learning from and listening to other musicians.

I've made peace with having to cancel a record release show + tour and am doing my best to stay in the here and now. Being two hours from the coast and mountains certainly helps. More recently I've focused my energy on writing, recording, trail running, and preparing for my 7th year as a special education teacher.

lyrics

birdsong
in the canopy

having a beer
for levity

moonbird
what's the word

will I live to see
our new reality

and if we're all
just walking
each other home

phasing in
phasing out
