A few years ago, I had some lyrics, some song ideas, and a vague idea that my songwriting, singing and drawing were more connected than I had originally thought.
In the intervening years, as I worked, it became clear to me that I should work on these two aspects of my practice concurrently, to test the theory.
So two years ago I began to apply for funding to make this happen. Several attempts, one year, and one pandemic later, here it is!
Thanks go to Michael Clarke, my co-writer, co-producer, mentor, musical and technical advisor, and friend. The songs sound as wonderful as they do because of him.
