I'm Down

This album was recorded in my basement in 2010! Hearing it brings back so many hilarious memories! I was part of the Elkhart Memorial Highschool student government (I honestly had no clue what that was, but I was part of it haha) and this particular year we needed to come up with ways to raise some money for charity. I saw an opportunity to do what I already loved doing and for a great cause at that. That was the birth of "Tis The Season". There are so many people featured in this collection including Mr. Foutz, one of, if not THE BEST teacher on the planet! We sold copies of these cd's from the bookshop and then donated all proceeds to charity. I remember talking the DJ at winter dance into playing "Snow Blow Your Problems" and teaching everyone the dance moves to it...what fun times! Hope y'all enjoy this comical collection of fun high school memories as much as I do! Please share any memories that you might have. THANKS and much love!

an easygoing, tranquil piece to tide you over as the encapsulating intermission takes its toll on my recent releases. & as always, s/o to the powerhouse that is Alex Pierce for the beautiful production of this arrangement.

Collapsed - Lyrics

It’s like wondering, 
If the walls collapsed. 
In a room, you’re trapped.
In life there’s no map.
Knowing when to go left,
Take your next step
In this life you’re left with.
	
It’s hard accepting the truth, 
When I can’t even feel You. 
It’s as if I’m blinded and mute. 
No sight, no words, no use.
Can this be happening to me?
I’m lost with no company. 
In a lifeless, a lifeless room,
With no sense of you.

It’s like wondering, 
If the walls collapsed. 
In a room, you’re trapped.
In life there’s no map.
Knowing when to go left,
Take your next step
In this life you’re left with.

I’m feeling so alone,
In this world unknown.
But I have a testing chance,
And In life you’ve gotta learn to dance. 
Can this be happening to me?

But you’ve got to fight
Whether you’re wrong or you’re right.
Take that next step, with all your might. 
You can do this, 
It’ll be alright. 

It’s like wondering 
If the walls collapsed 
In a room you’re trapped
In life there’s no map.
Knowing when to go left
Take your next step
In this life you’re left with.

Summer Future Funk banger. Had a great time with this one. Easily up there with my favorites! Put a bunch of my saxophone playing in there accompanied by the stylings of one mr. Keith Mansfield. Enjoy this one in the sun :)

The Future Is Now

Simply put...
​
 I'm just a dude that loves music and its ability to transcend time, language, and feelings. It's a beautiful, God given tool that connects people of all walks of life and I strive to use it for that beautiful purpose. I write music in hopes that it is used to bring people closer to each other, closer to God, and that it creates a space in which any and all feel comfortable to breath, think, reflect, and love.
