Like When We Were Kids

"Adjustments" is releasing at a very crucial time in my career where I'm evaluating every area of my life and making shifts - from the way I view myself and my journey, to being more present and mentally available in the life around me. It's healing work at its essence. Before these moments, I was doubtful, lacked confidence, and even insecure about my music. Now, I'm affirmed - daily - that this is where I'm supposed to be and the doubt has turned into patience. This song is liberation.

LYRICS:

Thought I would never see you again,
It really took me by surprise
I took you for dinner by the lake,
Thought we had left it all too late

Whenever you want me, whatever you need
I’m only a call away
The days you feel lonely, the times that you feel it
I promise I’m here to stay 

Whenever you want me, whatever you need
I’m only a call away
The days you feel lonely, the times that you feel it
I promise I’m here to stay 

It was amazing seeing your face, oh,
Down by the gate, girl,
We were laughing, all the same,
And it was incredible
You made me feel again
It was as if we'd never left 

Whenever you want me, whatever you need
I’m only a call away
The days you feel lonely, the times that you feel it
I promise I’m here to stay

(Everybody knows it, yeah)
(Everybody knows it, yeah)

Whenever you want me, whatever you need
I’m only a call away
The days you feel lonely, the times that you feel it
I promise I’m here to stay

“Currents” explores the concept of momentum, both big and small, that constantly shapes the journey. Each track reflects a personal experience, capturing the push and pull of the creative process with raw vulnerability.

Featuring three free-flowing, unmetered improvisations on piano, the EP journeys through seasons of emotions and peaks & valleys. Each track is a one-take recording, preserving authentic pauses and reflections within the music.

The unique character extends to the tuning, which intentionally deviates from the standard 441hz, creating an otherworldly soundscape.

I hope these ideas bring you joy.

Instrumental of the enduring and emotive torch song “Stormy Weather.” It was written by Harold Arlen and Ted Koehler in 1933 and sung by Ethel Walters at the Cotton Club in Harlem. Many artists have recorded it since, then including Etta James, Lena Horne, Ella Fitzgerald. 

Wonderful composition and lyrics: “Don't know why. There's no sun up in the sky. Stormy weather. Since my man and I ain't together. Keeps raining all of the time.”
