about

This album was created during the pandemic with leftover audio from recording sessions that I found on my hard drive--these recordings became a canvas that I used to create 5 songs.

I want to give a big thank you to everyone who contributed to this release; Matt Belton of Mangled Tapes for making tapes for me, Michael Sill of Ramble Records for believing in underground artists, and a big thank you to my Shawm teacher Ian Harrison.

Palastinalied is a crusader song from the 1200’s, all other tracks on this album are completely improvised.

Eulogy for a dream is about loss. It’s a farewell to plans and journeys that did not come to pass due to the pandemic.

Phoenix flies over the Rockies is inspired by magic realism, prairie skies, and the forests that I spend time in.

Serpent Slayer is about heroism in everyday life and how our decisions have the power to change the world.

Burnt Offerings is a contemplative shawm improvisation – a snapshot of many hours cloistered away from the world during cold winter nights.
