So I’m sitting here at my dad’s desk wondering if I should even share what I’m about to write because it has the potential of landing the wrong way with some people. I know I shouldn’t be as concerned about…

Sometimes, people have the assumptions that I don’t have to practice. After all I’ve been playing didgeridoo for almost 21 years and I’ve got technique down. 

So do I REALLY practice?

Yes…. Absolutely….Here’s why.

I may have technique down and…

For a long time now, I've been wanting to write about how the practice of music has played a role in my practice of being human. There have been so many juicy things I've learned through my music practice that…

In early October, I was teaching a Songcrafting Our Stories class at the Vashon Flute Gathering and the book Steal Like and Artist by Austin Kleon came up as we talked about giving ourselves permission to make our own art…

It’s hard to believe it’s been 20 years this week that I walked into a local used CD store in Seattle, listened to the David Hudson album Rainbow Serpent: Music for Didgeridoo and Drum and walked out with the fire…

This morning during breakfast, I was listening to Youtuber and musician, Mike Enjo talk about music and mental health in his recently released video on his Youtube channel Creative Sauce. Mike covers some very important issues regarding music making…

So I’ve been wanting to write “love letters”  for a long time now and I figure since we are on the cusp of a new year, now is a good time to start this. And since it's Winter, I can't…

I’ve been learning that I’m one of those people that can see the larger picture of things. I can see the vision of what is possible and become enamored with it, while I let it fill me with all the…

Before we dive in I just want to say thank you for reading this and for letting me show you the messy bits of being an artist. So often we only see the curated photos, videos and posts that make…

These are the beginnings of some thoughts I've been having around my musical practice and how it's had an impact on my own life. My hope in writing this is that you can take home some nuggets you can use…

I don’t even know where to start with this subject except to say I’m tired of the hustle. The ideas that you have to be doing something all the time. Especially when you are running your own “business.” I think…

Beneath the Moon has been out in the world now for about six weeks. If you don’t know yet, Beneath the Moon is my newest song that I released this past December. It’s been a song that has be very…

One of the things I run across a lot are people who want to do things perfectly. They want to make sure they do things right or correctly. There’s a certain amount of good in this but it can also…

So much music is pouring out of me right now! Wow! I guess it’s this time of year where the busyness of summer has wound down and the introspection of fall is starting to settle in. This seems to happen…

Hello my loves. I'm currently in Oregon as I write this on a trip to perform and bring you some of the adventures of the summertime.

Road tripping is one of my three most favorite things in life, the other…

For the past three years now, I've been struggling with maintaining a balance between being attentive to practical details of getting music out there - promoting and marketing and all the other business-y details - and making art, if I…

Sooooo, what goes through your mind when you hear about AI? Any of you confused? Scared? Excited over this seemingly sudden appearance of AI? Or can you see the possibilities of a tool that can help humanity in ways we…

What a weird, strange, ethereal, full of "wisdom" kind of day it's turning out to be. 

I woke up this morning really dehydrated to the point of having a headache and low energy. I drank a ton of water and…

As  I write this, it’s little more than a week until the release of two new single songs I wrote for piano. I have so much going through my head that I want to say about these two pieces that…

This is a totally unedited stream of consciousness writing. I want to leave it this way because it reflects the raw thoughts that come through me. I hope it makes sense. Enjoy!

So it’s been three weeks since the release…

Okay, brace yourself. This is kind of a long one and it's a bit rambly and unedited but if you're game, grab a cuppa tea or coffee and read on.

It’s a rainy morning here on the Olympic Peninsula. I’ve…

I used to think I never had a story to tell. Whenever people would ask me to tell them about myself, I would respond with “There’s nothing to tell really.”

Usually when someone says this, they have something…

This is a story of how I took a leap of faith eight years ago and have come to be where I’m at in this moment. It’s also about some of the amazing things I’ve learned along the way while…

There’s been a lot on my mind lately about fitting into this world versus making your own world. Earlier this morning, I wrote the following in my journal: 

I have no desire to fit in the world as it is.…

I feel like being a quiet disruptor today. Hearing the news of wars, shootings, corruption and so much more it's easy to feel this world is going mad. I'm turning to favor something better. Showing something better. Using my art…
