The new record, Osmosis, is out on all platforms. I’ll be sharing a little something extra about each of the songs in the coming weeks. Here’s a video I made for the first track, Breeze.
Breeze is about longing for adventure, a fantasy about falling in love with an exciting person whom I could tag along with on their travels. I admire people who explore the world and celebrate other cultures, those who escape societal norms and live unique lifestyles.
Since writing this song, I have learned the qualities I was searching for in someone else are already a part of me. I didn’t need to find it in a partner. It was inside of me all along. I am learning to embrace my independent, unconventional and introverted side. My adventures are just beginning.
Lyrics:
I’ll go wherever the wind blows
follow- join if you’ll have me
where are you going to?
where are you from?
seeking adventure, can I tag along?
every curve of the earth (It’s not flat)
every cave and nook
I’d look at with you
I’m ecstatic to announce I’ve been named an Akron Soul Train fellow. It is a privilege and an honor to be a part of the fellowship program. Thank you for the opportunity to share my art and support my work.
“Akron Soul Train (AST) is thrilled to support 13 new local and regional artists from September 2018 through August 2019. The AST Fellowship Selection Committee reviewed 70 applications and selected a wide variety of excellent visual and performing artists, ranging from emerging to more established. Each artist will lead a community program during their fellowship as well as present a final exhibition or performance in Akron to share the artwork they created.” – Akron Soul Train
For Music Monday, while I prep for Saturday’s show in NYC, I’d like to share, “The Story Of Everybody” off the Tacocat 7″ (2010). This song has been hitting home lately. Flashback to when I had the time consuming idea to wood burn all the lyrics into taco shells.
