Hey I’m putting out my second record of songs, “Black Holiday”, November 18th. The last album of songs I put out was way back in 2020 during the pandemic called, “Thank You, Miss Charlie”. A lot has changed since then and I’m excited to share the stuff I’ve written since then.

Thank you to all my family and friends both old and new who contributed, listened, supported, let me play you the 10+ versions of the songs, and have just been cool people.

@matteblue.band 8/12/26 @beachlandcle

One of my favorite parts of live music is when an artist is able to bring you into their world. You feel the emotions of the songwriter and it gives me chills. Matte Blue is a wonderful example of an emotive music experience. Their songs wrap you in a warm hug and there’s a sense of comfort whether their songs bring you to tears or make you want to get out on the dance floor! It was an absolute pleasure to be a part of this special evening and capture the energy radiating through the room! 🎶✨

*sound on*

Fun fact about me: some of my earliest musical influences from a very young age were Charles Ives, Charlie Parker, Louis Armstrong, and Norma Winstone.

Last night with the Third Law Collective, I had the incredible opportunity to wear those influences on my sleeve and share a large body of my work in poetry, visual art, and musical composition. It was magical. Its not easy for a large group of people in an ensemble to be, and stay, so singularly dedicated to the moment and to the work like this. To the band, thank you for trusting me with this evening, it was an honor and a privilege. I heard spaces in the music where each of you were able to open up into your honest self, and places where we all willfully submitted to the larger communal goal before us. Thank you for that. You are all so inspiring and you may not realize it but that is all we need to keep building the places and the contexts where we can show the world what we are really all about. I could go on....

To the audience, thank you for supporting this artistic endeavor. Your presence is crucial to complete the circle of understanding. This cannot be overstated.

I'll see you all at the next gig, Tuesday June 16th at the Bop Stop with Horizon Trio.
