American Opera Singer | Producing Artist
Opera in a midwestern city is a lot different from The Metropolitan Opera.

It's a good sign in any moderately sized city to have an opera company. The Art Form is about community, where people from ALL walks of life and trades come together to put on a masterpiece show that speaks to TODAY.

Some guy I know tried to dis a friend of mine who complained about Trump using hunger as a cudgel. He's like, 'I donated half a cow!'

To those who do this ...
Thank You. I think that is badass.
...Annnd this is the definition of Virtue Signaling.

... Policy feeds people. Not tax write-offs.

Show no. Dos coming up tonight.

It's not a laughing matter. I celebrate the effectiveness of this work THE CENTRAL PARK FIVE.

We have so much great work to do yet, friends. Art can rebut autocracy.

That's it.

When DNC polls are down in an authoritarian slide. Meaning - democrats in the center of DNC power do NOT want to DO democracy and fight for us.

Willing or not. It's time for u to go.

Chuck, you fell asleep after the disaster vote. You did an interview and passed out.

V is for violin-

Chuck Schumer did what he thought was right. That's his job. He did it. It was an impossible decision anyway. On one hand destroy the country faster by furlough and on the other ascribe it into policy.
HE LOST THE PERCEPTION BATTLE.

Old with no fight left. #replaceschumer

I remember:
It was my first true freshman year in college at Kansas State University - I had just discovered the music library and the sound archive. My voice teacher and I had made a breakthrough. I sang a high Bb. His eyebrows shot up "You know, Nathan," --> www.ngranner.com/blog/un-tron...

This t-shirt marks a moment in my career when I thought everything was set up for me to have an incredible and storied career.

For sure it's storied. Incredible? Hmmm.

Even so - right now it's pretty neat. Just releasing the 2nd album I'm on in 3 months.

Sang thru Radames today. Lots of work to go, but wow! I can see why he's such a coveted character to sing. So many lovely corners and deep notes!

That's my boy, H. G. Lost him a while back and I still miss him. Such a brave cat. One of the most special creatures I'd ever met. 😍😭🙂‍↔️😻

So called Dems mad about Biden pardoning his son - RUFK?!

I'm this comfortable with it. For utterly obvious reasons.

Flying from SF to SLO. I haven't seen a scene like this. The ocean shining on the crazy clouds. The crepuscular light giving glows...
