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…

Author’s Disclaimer: This is an article written completely from stream-of-consciousness with no editing so it may seem a bit grammatically rough and redundant in places. I wanted to leave it this way because it’s more sincere and closest to how…

Over the past few months, I’ve been thinking a lot about the parallels between being a musician and learning skills, practice habits and mindsets etc. and how those can translate over to life skills. In all honesty, I've been hesitant…

Before I start, I just want to ask……how are you doing? I asked this at the beginning of the pandemic and everyone seemed to be doing alright. But now after two years of some of the most turbulent times we’ve…

Sometimes, it’s hard to know what to say when you’re feeling the full weight of being human. It’s not necessarily depression. It’s more like the energy is down but the spirit is still there and it’s like something is whispering…

Hello Everyone!

Winter is on its way. It’s been storming, raining, windy and snowing like mad in the mountains for the past two days. It all has made the intense heat and dryness of this past summer a mere memory…

Tracks for Sandstorm

It can go without saying that the most challenging part of composing for didgeridoo is coming up with consistently interesting music for the listener who is not as familiar with this ancient instrument. This is one reason…

This is me at 12:36am. It’s getting to be late at night and I really should call it a day but I just released the Sandstorm video into the world tonight and I just wanted to say something about it…

Hello Everyone. I just wanted to some of the beauty of the forest during these days of October here in the Pacific Northwest. I always feel like I'm in heaven whenever I take these walks. Especially in Autumn.

This is…

My musical journey started with an instrument similar to what you see in the photo above. This is a Magnus table top chord organ that was made in the 60's and early 70's primarily for kids. If it hadn't been…

I swiped this image from my very first video I put out on Youtube back in 2008. It’s a song called Friend which you can find on the album Dogum that I put out in 2010. You can find the…

This is a list of the songs I started this year. There are 105 of them. Only three of them were started late last year. This list does not include the 400 or 500 more songs that's on the other…

There are reasons why I sit and do this for hours. The first is to put a good quality instrument into the hands of players. When I get a message from a customer on how much they love their instrument…

Hello Everyone!

It's been awhile since I've written anything! Before I even start, I thought it would be a fun idea to share this piano and strings piece first. As you listen to it, you can look at the rest…
