Happy Spring! 

It's official ya'll! So happy to finally enter a season where things are blooming and the sun is shining (except yesterday when it snowed) hehe. I am home all this month and really enjoying a month of no shows, catching up with friends and family, and writing songs! Yes, new song are finally coming! I've also been producing a few songs for some highschool girls through a project with WYEP-fm, planning to teach a music marketing workshop through Greater Pittsburgh Arts Council, leading worship at my church, and doing some much-needed Spring cleaning. It has been a full but wonderful April!!
 

WORLD CAFE LIVE VIDEO!
Last month Peace and I got to play a pretty excitng show at World Cafe Live in Wilmington, DE. All the artists on the bill were female pianist and it was one of those special nights. Here's video of one of the songs. Peace is the one beatboxing but to my chagrin she only gets 3 seconds in the video :(

 
365 Days of All or Nothing...is FINISHED!
A little over 1 year ago, I set out to write one blog a day for a full year. In light of the release of All or Nothing I had so many things I wanted to write about - things that had both everything and nothing to do with the album, but spotlighted people, places, art, and ideas that were worth sharing and often counterculture. Well, I finally hit post #365 last week and I can't believe I made it!!! There are so many posts on my blog and when you have some down time you can catch up on the ones you've missed. I talked about friends who were doing awesome things, did movie reviews, shared new music discoveries, talked about Jesus, and touched on pretty much everything under the sun. Here's my final post: #365 Days of Eeeeeeverything!
