Shadows We Left Behind

Presented as a sung-through cabaret performance in a smoky 1960s nightclub, this album chronicles a performer's deeply personal and increasingly disillusioned journey through the rapidly shifting socio-political landscape of the decade. The songs weaves through the initial optimism of the early '60s, the burgeoning counterculture and civil rights movements, to the eventual anxieties and fragmentation that defined the latter half, exploring themes of idealism betrayed, the search for authentic connection amidst upheaval, and the enduring power of intimate performance.

The Encore's Echo

An acoustic-pop diary about love, loss, and hope.

Good Noise

The Drowning Hour is a raw, acoustic journey through a severe depressive episode and the slow, fragile rise that follows. Across fifteen intimate songs, a single close-mic’d tenor voice carries you from detaching and drowning to noticing the first crack of light and finally breathing again.
