Making a new album tests me in so many ways, yet is also so enlivening. What I love about this process is that it forces me to wake up and grow, face fears and take risks. And to believe in myself, at least a little more than I did last year. I really believe in songwriting as a path of personal growth (or any creative path that you follow entirely). I will admit to having a lot of dreams and goals but at the top of my personal pyramid is inner fulfillment, and somewhere near to there is connecting with the people. Even though that actually scares me, because I’m sensitive and you also scare me somewhat (I’m sorry, I wish I wasn’t this way, but I’m also glad that I am, because it’s the part of me that drives me to write, observe, transmute). Some glimpses into the songs and my process are below - I would love to have your support to make this project happen. Here is the complete fundraiser page with all the details that make this project so special.
Without belaboring the point, I’ve begun recording this new album, elliptic (tentative title) already and it’s well on it’s way to becoming real. While I wanted to start this process much earlier, on the heels of Carpe Noctem, sometimes things just take the time that they take and can’t be forced. I have created some exchanges for any support you choose to give to this project (a few examples - A Songbook, a concert this spring, real paper letters mailed to you via my new Analogue Community, Songwriting Mentorship - among others).
