my sweet, beautiful sister Kirsten has passed on after a long and hard battle. she carried more pain than most could see. beneath that pain however was a softness, a loving warmth, an unabashedness and an infectious sense of humor. my cheeks still hurt from how many times she pinched them when i was a lil guy. she also had the unique ability to come up with a melody/jingle off the cuff expertly. despite all odds, she was so truly herself always, and she was brave. it will be sad not to grow old with her. i have nothing but compassion and love in my heart, and i will carry her memory and spirit with me everywhere i go for the rest of my days. šš

2024 // my busiest, hardest, growing-est season yet. i entered the year on the heels of a traumatic car accident that almost took my life. the ups and downs hit different when youāve been shaken to the core on a fundamental level. but as Hemingway said, āthe world breaks everyone, and afterward, many are strong at the broken places" iām simply just grateful to be here. even moreso with the privileges which with iām bestowed and with the support/in the company of wonderful family + friends (new and old!) traveled far and wide across the globe playing music for people, put out my first record, ate damn good, logged countless hours cramped in planes, vans, not sleeping etc., i wouldnāt trade this life for anything otherwise // looking to catch even bigger fish this year!! as the ancient sage axiom goesā¦ ākeep on donāt stoppināā 2025 we live!! š«” sendinā love to all š«¶š»
