Ideally, listen to it with stereo speakers or headphones. Really experience the music, the panning, the spacing, and atmosphere. Thanks again for listening and I hope you enjoy the album!

10/4/24 New Music Friday: 🎧 Are You the One for Me is an intimate and reflective track that captures the raw emotions of stepping into a new relationship. It speaks to the uncertainty, excitement, and hesitation of not knowing where things are headed. The song explores the delicate dance between hope and vulnerability, making it relatable for anyone who’s ever been in love and unsure of the future. Perfect for listeners navigating the unknown in their own relationship and lost in the possibilities. A new ballad of hope?!?

Wisdom Wednesday
🔥 Creativity is a boundless wellspring of human expression, a force that transcends the ordinary and transforms the mundane into the extraordinary. It is the spark that ignites innovation, the fuel that drives progress, and the voice that speaks truths beyond words. In the act of creation, we find not only a reflection of ourselves but also a vision of what we can become. Creativity reminds us that we are capable of shaping our world, of turning dreams into reality, and of leaving a lasting imprint on the tapestry of existence. It is a reminder that within each of us lies the power to imagine, to create, and to inspire. Thank you for being here and supporting my creativity! ❤️
3/12/24 Baby Baby 10 Weeks Old added to MoDuLe Pop Rock Playlist by BomB H! 🤘 Super cool! Please show them some love and check out their IG and Spotify Playlist! ❤️
3/11/24 Pitched Crash and Burn to Amazon and Spotify for playlist consideration!
Crash and Burn is about taking a chance, no matter the cost, no matter the risk! It's about believing in yourself and finding greatness within! This song was started many years ago and only just finished in 2021. You might say it was co-written with my younger self. I'm very proud of this song and I hope you enjoy it! I'd love to be added to NMF, New Music Now, Fresh Finds, New Pop Picks, New Noise, Pop Rock, Evening Commute, young & free, soda, Salt. I have a bachelor's degree in marketing!
