Hello! I've released a new album. It's called "In Our Minds Alone", and it contains a lot of tracks from the last 5 years that I worked hard on but never found a home. If you're a fan of indie folk that's a little bit psychedelic, then I think you will enjoy it! Thank you to everyone who chooses to give it a listen, and everyone who has supported my music over the years, and thank you to my partner for doing the incredible album art.

You can buy it here on bandcamp, and it can also be streamed for free at all the usual places such as youtube, spotify, apple music and anywhere else you could think of. I would appreciate it so much if you gave it a listen wherever you please. Thank you so much!

Head Like A Nest (Deluxe) is out today!!! This version adds three tracks that I deemed too weird to include on the regular album, and a fourth (Fog) that I wrote 17 years ago. It’s with profound appreciation that I dedicate Fog to Aleinn, who started listening back in 2008, the year I began writing songs in earnest and sharing them on YouTube. Thank you for believing in me and my music all these years. Your support has been a gift I don't take for granted.

A lyric video for Fog will premiere at 5pm eastern today, animated by Avery and Paige Vang.

As a whole, the album is full of birds and whimsical storytelling, but it’s also a personal record of post-traumatic growth, and a reminder that there’s creative potential in life’s darkest moments. My sincerest thanks to my producer Josh Frigo for bringing out the best in every one of these songs.
