Hey Music Fam! 🌟Music has this magical way of speaking what words can’t express, right? Whether it’s that bassline that hits you in the soul, those lyrics that tell your story, or the beat that gets your feet moving – music moves us!

Ever feel like words aren’t enough to express what’s in your heart? That’s where music steps in. 🎧✨ It’s the rhythm that gets your foot tapping, the melody that stirs your emotions, and the lyrics that speak your truth. Music doesn’t just entertain us—it connects, heals, and inspires. Whether it’s the beat of a drum or the strum of a guitar, every note carries the power to transform moments into memories. ❣️

I say how it sucks creativity away from us and I'm sure I've made some eyes roll. I want to thank you all for tolerating it. So as a 'put your money where your mouth is' type thing, I wanted to share my first ever EP from 15 years ago. I had one acoustic guitar, one electric, a banjo, a tambo, and a shaker- that's it. I had no EQ, no compressors and no idea what any of them did. No plugins, no tutorials, blah blah. I made it in my untreated living room. I didn't master it or really even mix it. I did my won artwork too. It's not technically great, I know that, but sometimes I feel like it's better than anything else I've ever made. Anyway if you have time to hear 4 songs I'm open to criticism. Thank you.
