After 4+ years of not officially releasing any music, I’m finally ready to release my latest album entitled “To: Mom” on Mothers’ Day as a tribute to my late mother and to all the hard-working mamas out there!

I’ll also be selling good old CDs, if anyone still uses those. Let me know 🙂
You can get a sneak peak of a couple songs and also purchase/listen here:
This is my first official full-length solo album, not including some albums I released unofficially, when I was a wee little lad. This album features songs that I wrote as early as 2012, such as the title track, as well as songs that I’ve written during the recording process this year such as “Lost in the Day” and Trail Eyes” to name a couple. I almost forgot to mention that the track “Bats” dates back to circa 2007…my college years.
The album mixes traditional and modern folk techniques along with some interesting soundscapes including sound effects recorded naturally in Encinitas, CA during the recording process as you can hear on tracks such as “Trail Eyes” and “When the Winds Grow Wild,” which also includes sounds from Peru years ago.
I’m honored to have guest musicians performing on the album, as well. Ciera DeSilva performs violin on “Lost in the Day.” Alexandra “Xandra” Mason performs additional vocals on “Lost in the Day,” and “Open Road.” Martin Shaw performs violin on “Open Road,” and Colin Scharff performs trumpet on “Not Alone.”
Thank you sincerely for your support and for listening. I’m looking forward to your feedback and wishing all the mamas out there a Happy Mothers’ Day!
