There’s nothing like the first cup of coffee in the morning! (Yes, there’s a song in there…😁)

Happy Sunday! Some thoughts I like writing by hand...it feels more intentional and grounded. My lyrics I have to type because my mind jumps around too much! But for reflections and ideas, writing by hand is just right.

It’s no big secret that I am a huge fan of @johnserrano.bandcamp.com ! His voice and music are so very special. It’s a perfect blend of jazz, fusion, pop, rock, flamenco, r&b, soul…..his voice is incredible and he plays all the instruments himself! Of course I had to get his latest album on #vinyl!

For those curious about Nashville tuning:
It means that the four lower strings (6–3) are tuned an octave higher than usual, while the top two stay the same.
Regular steel strings can snap or worse, damage the guitar.
These are the ones I use.

All of my guitars have names – this is Suzanne.
She’s a steel-string acoustic with Nashville tuning, and I used her on my song January. The tuning adds a little extra sparkle.

New song in the Garden of Creation on BC. When I see beauty in something, there's usually a song on my mind. Just two days after I wrote the song, a snowstorm hit the north of Germany. Did I write it into existence?! I hope I didn't! 😜

Yesterday I was on a streetart guided tour in Cologne Ehrenfeld. There’s so much to see! If you go I totally recommend Alternative Cologne Tours! Eva knows many of the artists and the message behind the streetart.

Just saw Suzanne Vega in Cologne — wow, what a show! The cello was such a nice surprise and worked perfectly with the songs. Stephanie Winters was amazing, and of course Gerry Leonard shone on electric guitar as always! 💫

Every autumn tells the same story in a slightly different way — golden leaves, pumpkins, squirrels, coffee, getting cosy… so many signs that the season has begun. But the best part? The cats are finally indoors again, curling up with you after a summer outside. 🐾 Full story on my Patreon.

These past mornings, I’ve been singing a little before the day begins. Today’s song was “Leaves In Autumn” — an older song about memories and friendships. Enjoy! 🍂

My feeling exactly! 😂
Summer is over, and as much as I love autumn, it’s so much to do! I can hardly keep track of the many little things that keep popping up. Also I was going to launch my little creative space this week. It’s definitely coming, so stay tuned! 👀

When in Berlin, I found this wonderful golden blank tape! 🤩
It doesn’t say how long it is but it looks like it might be 120 minutes.
What should I record onto it? 🤔

September is here. It’s a quiet shift. Not quite summer, not quite autumn The change is subtle — but it feels like it’s full of possibilities. A season for slow creativity, new pages, and small restarts.
How do you feel about this time of year? A reset? Still summer?
