Despite the world's chaos and divisive content, I choose to express my emotions through creativity rather than destructive past behaviors. This shift has literally saved me. Introducing Song #1 "Summer Song" on July 18th. Follow along!

I started working on these tracks in 2020 with my usual collaborators. Some top picks emerged from Soultrain Studios in Nashville, including "Summer Song," set for release on July 18. I remember when they were fine-tuning John's drums, and Adam joined in with what you might call dancing.

I just want to wake up to the good news that our president of these United States is worm food.
Not that worms like the putrid rankness of decaying dental waste.
Also my cello fucking fell over and broke the neck clean off. I'm crunchy.

I am now going to commit to Blue sky is my primary social outlet given the latest news from zuck and his empire. Someone trying to suck the nuts of the dictator is not a platform I want to be on. On that note here's an excerpt of the most beautiful song ever written at a concert in Rome I attended.

I was keeping hope, albeit a small sliver of hope, that maybe... Just maybe we'd do something about the election interference. That hope is gone and I'm going into hiding. I just don't fucking care until we go to the streets.

Getting close to complete. Album 1 of 2025. The other one will be my first ambient album.

I use these metrics to define my own personal goals, not worth. This is miniscule compared to other artists out there and as hard as I try to not compare, I do. My dream still lives though To make music, to be heard, but more importantly to connect.

Scouting a room to record and produce the final song for my debut ambient album. This one doesn't fit the genre entirely, it has vocals. Think a little Haevn meets Gilmour.

I look forward to the day that Nature, in all its mighty glory, takes back the meat carcasses that are planning to destroy the goodness of this country, world.

Working on finishing this one up for my debut ambient album. This album has more meaning to me than anything I've done.
We need music now more than ever.

If I worry about tomorrow today it will zap my energy for kicking their asses tomorrow.
Here's the Blue Cave in Croatia. On Isle of Vis to be exact, my next home. The cave, not the island.
