Music was my first love, and growing up I thought playing guitar and composing music would be my primary work in the world. But through the twists and turns of life, the inspiration to tell stories and make films overtook me, and the guitar soon ended up stuffed in the back of my closet for many years. But when my wife was pregnant with our boy, the guitar called to me from the past and I started gently plucking away at it more and more. Until I couldn’t put it down. And this album of instrumental pieces poured forth. Written over a roughly 3 year period from 2019-2021 that encompassed the birth of my son, the death of my father, and leaving New York City after nearly 20 years and relocating to New Mexico. These songs were the soundtrack of our life in that time. In many respects these pieces were an expression of my exploration and experience of the archetype of fatherhood. Both becoming one and suddenly losing mine.

Recorded in the summer of 2021at my home in New Mexico in the wee hours of the night and morning when my family was sleeping.

Mastered by Chuck Johnson.
