Sat in with a fun group last night on a few tunes. More of a sing-a-long than anything else, the night reminded me of this quote. Bonus: An Irishman came up to me at the end of the night and said I played very well. Day made. ✌🏻☘️🇮🇪 #findingbutterfliesmusic #musicianlife #singalong

So lucky to be getting calls for independent Irish whistle gigs. This also seems a good time to introduce everyone to my new C wide bore penny whistle, on the right. Like my D whistle, on the left, it's made out of mopane and gets the most delicious sound. Made by Chris Abell. #irishwhistle #lucky

It is true most of our activity since Fall 2023 has been focused on other collaborations, however we have been writing, & in fact have 10 new songs in our recording queue which will have more of an acoustic feel to them. So, that's what's happening butterflies. Stay tuned. 🎶🦋

A few snaps from April-July. I love my students and the people I perform with. NYC. 6 Broadway Shows plus Count Basie. Retrofret was brilliant! See guitar post from June. And 2 our 4 nieces in Virginia. The Family Dinner Playlist was epic! #ensembles #NYC #family #nieces

Join me in wishing #happybirthday to this brilliantly talented and kind human being. I haven't always made the best choices when it comes to my personal and professional collaborations, but in this case, I knocked the ball right out of the park. 🎂#guitarist #findingbutterfliesmusic

Since September I have played countless numbers of notes, attended tons of rehearsals & learned Native American flute. I am grateful for every single moment & I value every single collaboration beyond measure, but today I simply travel through the forest & take the time to say, hello old friends.

Playing whistles, alto flute, and C flute this weekend. One concert, two different cantata performances, and a rehearsal in the space of 36 hours. 😬 May the odds be ever in my favor. Hope your weekend is full of your favorite music. #WeekendVibes #findingbutterfliesmusic #flute

Living life with both hands is good advice but also why we suck at social media. 🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ Highlights-collaboration on a flute trio, learning Native American flute, & a recording session with orchestra & choir. Also, we are working on new music we hope to release in the fall. #musicismarvelous
