A piece for String Quartet, originally created on solo acoustic fingerstyle guitar. A sightread performance pieced together from a composition workshop at SFSU in the Spring of 2019.

Playing With The Light (feat. Jack Quartet)

Sun is the second of four planned EPs centered around the Manzanita Project, a 4 EP release cycle.

Sun is centered on the matured nature of self-reflection. Criticisms of self and society, coupled with the seemingly futile attempt to remain happy and sane amongst it all. The oppressive heat Sun pushes you to the brink, but doesn't let you go just yet.
