My new music begins rolling out in one months time. So much new on the horizon ✌️ photo by @savannahshawphoto

Hey friends. I wrote a new blog. There is a weight to this one, and I'm not so sure why. Maybe because it's freaking me out a little to be so vulnerable in front of you. But I can sense its importance in this time. This one I titled "The Courage To Begin Again" and I am hoping to open up a conversation that will help us to believe that there is, at all times, an invitation to start new. When we have the courage to take a true and honest look at ourselves, we will see something hopelessly shattered. But, somehow, from this place God rewrites our lives. This is the good news of God: that we might truly begin again. Read more here if that resonates at all. And as always, thank you for your support. Link in bio ☝️

Today, I tracked the last notes for my album. Last November I set out to create this record, not knowing how intense a journey it would be for me personally. I’d set out for perfection, only to realize it doesn’t exist. I’d set out to succeed, only to realize I already had it in the ways that really mattered. 30 minutes ago I shut down my computer and allowed myself to be done, believing that it is truly good, all that has gone into making this record. For me, letting go is one of the most challenging ideas to practice, but at some point you just realize that youve done your best and that it really is enough...

More film! Such good memories working with Margot and Noah on Margot’s debut EP. Loved having my Cali friends all the way out here in Athens and feel lucky to have worked on this music. So excited for this record to come out. @margot.osborne

Art goes sour when the ego gets involved. It happens slowly overtime…as we forget the initial joy of loving something for the sake of loving it. When art becomes a means to an identity, or when we use our successes to patch up wounds that success was never meant heal, we lose sight of art’s beauty. When art becomes a competition instead of a nuanced language to be celebrated, we forget the power of our own uniqueness and the specialness hidden in our own voice, as our efforts become aimed at becoming the best instead of becoming our true selves. Then, when we become the best, we begin to see people around us as either threats or servants to our own ego, rather than stories to learn from. We lose the art of living and the art of relationship. We lose the heart and we lose the love we so innocently began the adventure with.

A long lost roll of film has made its way back to me! Here are some snaps from November of 2018, when I first began tracking for my album. This was an unforgettable time with these amazing people I get to call friends. When these were taken, I had no idea of how great of an undertaking making this record has been. But as I round the corner and the end is in sight, I am so glad that I took my time and yielded to this slow process of discovery. I cannot WAIT to share this music with you 🌸shot on a Canon AE-1 with Ilford HP5 plus.

Cooking up some tunes this week with @gregmeredith ✌️
