Flava of the Month w/ Eliza Rose - December 2020

Well well well. Look who's back!

After 11 years of monthly editions of my Music Is My Sanctuary show I decided I needed a creative break which ended up taking two years. It certainly wasn't for a lack of passion for music or for sharing it with all of you. I felt like I lost my sense of purpose with the show and I certainly didn't want to simply go through the motions if the passion wasn't there. Creative endeavours shouldn't be forced. 

It feels great to start this show again and I'm excited about the future of it and most all of sharing music with you.
