Happy Holidays 2011

I just wanted to say a quick thank you for all the comments, posts, and messages in support of this season’s releases! It was a blast of a time, fully beset with challenges and growing edges, putting these three songs together this past fall, and there will be more musical goodness to come in the new year. Four more songs are in the works — we wrapped up tracking in November — with more amazing work by brilliant musicians once again with whom it is my utmost privilege to work. I’ve set an intention for the upcoming year to write some reflections about the process of working together with these wonderful and talented people. I am much humbled and inspired by their light and the beautiful musical constructs they channel so intuitively.

A number of other ideas have started percolating up in the old noggin’ as well, ideas that haven’t been part of my consciousness for months, years, and in one case over a decade. It seems to me in some way to be par for the season this year, that as the light started to fade more and more into darkness, those old dreams and visions began to appear more clearly; I suppose rather like stars in a clear, moonless night sky. They are all quite nascent right now, so I’ll hold off on further spoilers, but watch this space, with once again more to come in the new year. Thank you for joining me on this creative journey.

Wishing all of you much light and joy this holiday season.

Hey everyone, hope all is well wherever you are… my latest single — Never Tired of You – is now available for download!

For now it’s exclusively available via bandcamp. A couple of neat things about this service include being able to listen to the entire track before purchasing, as well as there being a wide variety of file formats from which to choose. Check it out! I’m eager to hear any and all of your feedback; either via the facebook wall, or else the email forms on the contact page. Friends and listeners from Malaysia especially — definitely let me know if this service works… still doing my best to find a way to get the music over there!

Enjoy! And if you like what you hear, spread the word!

Travel safe and talk soon.

These Games We Play – IN STORES NOW!

Hey folks! It’s out and ready to roll. 2011′s second release – These Games We Play – has landed. I know I haven’t mentioned too much about this track, I’m actually really excited about it’s arrival, and the process of it coming into being definitely had some cool twists and turns that I’ll share soon in a reflection.

For now, you can listen to it (and, if you like what you hear, purchase your very own copy!) at my bandcamp site; it’s also available at many of the usual suspects (iTunes etc.)… check out the new store widgets on the song’s info page, deftly added to the site just last week, by web maestro Kevin Leary.

Happy listening. Really hope you all enjoy this one. Stay warm out there, winter’s a comin’ this weekend.

Travel safe and talk soon.
