i've been making records for fourteen years. i started recording on a boom box in my teenage bedroom and haven't looked back since. i've had a few moments of glory, some moments of apparent hopelessness, and lots of time to realize that for some strange reason i just cant stop doing this thing called writing songs. but my relationship to music is changing too. i used to be fighting the world -- trying to prove something to someone (though i can't for the life of me remember what i had to prove, and to whom). but all of that has faded. music is joy now, and i'm looking for a different experience. connection. flow. faith.
