I started this series TEN years ago; it feels crazy to think it's been this long. As always the goal is to ease you into the new year. I release these in the winter (obviously!) but they have a springtime feel to me: new birth, new growth, new beginnings.

Basically the musical equivalent of black eyed peas (but definitely not Black Eyed Peas).
