Hello and welcome.

I am stoked to be releasing my record BRAVE NEW VIEW which I produced with Tracy Walton (and Beans the cat) at On Deck Sound Studio in Northfield CT. We started the project just before COVID-19 hit and finished the recording just as the world began its global, social reboot. An interesting time to be making an album, the studio was my safe haven where I went to “refill the well”. I returned to music after a long time away. My “story” goes something like this:

When I was in my mid 20’s I took a break from my life as a touring musician, opening for the likes of Odetta, John Gorka, and the Indigo Girls; a break that lasted the better part of 25 years. Then, in the summer of 2018, I found myself at an open mic. By the end of the night, I was singing again. Four months later, to my surprise, I was writing songs again.

I wrote 40 plus songs in a year, 12 of which are on this record. In the words and melodies are the stories of my adult life: the passing of my mother, the dissolution of a 20 year marriage, my discovery and exploration of meditation, new love, and the essence of the sacred in everything and everyone.

As we realign on a global scale, we are also left to recalibrate and assess on a personal level (if able and willing). My mantra, when I remember to refer to it, has become: find Love. When all else fails, Love never does. These songs, though distinct from one another in style, have that theme running through all their veins: finding Love by falling madly into; by tumbling awkwardly out of it or getting tangled up in it; reaching out for sacred Love in all its wisdom and richness or finding Love tucked down deep in a childhood memory.

May this music reach many and may the stories and melodies offer some light to the shadows. Every day is an opportunity to find joy and liberate ourselves into being. I hope you enjoy what you hear and that the record resonates with you. Please pass along the link to this website page. My fundraising platform will be announced July 3, 2020. In this day and age, every listener adds to the possibility of another record down the line. I so appreciate you visiting my website.

Peace out -
