Dear Friends,
What a month it has been! So many fun memories (a few not-so-great ones too), long drives, and bunch of exceptionally wonderful house concerts! Not to mention a huge snow-storm that cancelled 5 of my shows in one fell swoop! It’s been a roller coaster of a month. But it ended on a very high note with my 8th year attending and performing at Jubilee - a college conference gathering over 3000 students from across the country to talk about the intersection of faith, culture, and vocation. The above photo is by my photographer friend, Andrew Rush. I’m the one with the flailing arms...and bare feet of course!!! #cantcontainme
 WALK // watch, listen, share...again!
Thank you to everyone who sent feedback on "Walk" over the last several weeks. Your comments, messages, and efforts to share this song have been so encouraging! In two weeks I have the opportunity to play this at the annual Bread for the World fundraiser gala in Washington D.C. I'm so pumped to share this with them since it was first inspired by their work.
Also, a handful of people have asked me for the lryics to this song. Those are now up on the Noisetrade page where you can also download a free copy of the song!
