⛰📡✨ MYSTIC MOUNTAIN ⛰📡✨

My new album is out now and streaming everywhere, links galore in bio.

*****

I just want to say THANK YOU to anyone who has spent any time with my music at any point throughout my musical journey. It really makes it all worth it.

This album, among other things, is about embracing change, expressing gratitude, exploring new paths, and the highs and lows that are a natural part of finding our way in this complicated but beautiful world we live in.

The concept of MM as an album was inspired by my regular hikes to the “moon tower” (cover art) where I often go to get above the noise of the city and find clarity.

The first time I saw @bobweir on stage was at the Grateful Dead’s last show ever at Soldier Field in ‘95. I had just turned 13 a few days before. Jerry died a month later. I will always be incredibly thankful that my awesome big brother @gearheadsmcrs took me to that show, to say it changed my life would be an understatement.

Never did I expect I would get a chance to meet Bobby, let alone play the same stage as him 23 years later. I don’t usually get star struck, but that day I was totally floating. He was as sweet and sincere as could be. It will always be one of the biggest highlights of my musical journey.

I feel lucky I got to catch Fare Thee Well back in ‘15 and a handful of @deadandcompany shows over the years. The last time I saw him was with Dead & Co at their final night at the Sphere back in May. So hard to imagine a world without him in it.
