New album: The Night Will Pass

I did it! Went all out and got the new album I recorded copied with a full color lyrics booklet included. I always wanted to have my own music in a physical format like this. I have extra copies if anyone wants me to mail one (the first ones have a few typos in the booklets but I wrote in by hand the most glaring issues…lol) but anyway here’s a digital link to the whole thing too for free download if anyone cares:
Shed Light
I am putting together a short collection of very old songs I re-recorded and want to release together. This is one of my favorites of those early pieces. I’d had my first piano for less than a year and was amazed at how many ideas I was following through. It meant everything.
First Portrait Series
All in order from top left to the right across, the last being a self portrait (the center one is my mother back in the day). I started this back in the summer and finished last week, finally. I don’t want it to be said that all I did was abstract art. Now that’s put to rest. Prints are up as well at my zazzle shop Among the Ashes. If I had enough money I’d open a real poster shop. I’ll keep dreaming.
My New Album

This I hope will be the last collection of boring acoustic piano pieces. I need variety and will try to make the next set a real difference from prior work. Time to experiment.
What matters most…

I would get this tattooed on my back if I had the guts…
