Just before the lockdown last year, I was up north, walking in a forest, when I saw what I thought was fur scattered in the snow; it turned out to be seeds from the nearby bulrushes. With the world seemingly on the verge of chaos, I was wondering what I had to say that was relevant. From this humble state of mind, I started writing songs that touched on themes of love, the passing of time and moments of darkness. Initially, I wanted a stripped-down, intimate sound focused on guitar and voice. But over time I started recording with more instrumentation, including vintage keyboards and drums, for many of the songs. The album was later mixed and mastered by Andy Magoffin.

Here’s a new trailer for the upcoming album The Fur of the Bulrush, available September 10, 2021. The song in the trailer is “Lit by Stars” which will also be on the album. About half of the songs on the album are quiet and mellow like this one.

Happy new year! Here is a new collage I made. More new collages are on my instagram. I’ve also been working on some new music and hope to share something in 2021.
