Wow, so excited that Moving Pictures is up for the German Music Critics award this year! What an incredible honor and regardless of what happens I'm so grateful to all my friends and fans in Germany for making this possible. We'll find out the results next month, fingers crossed! 

The day is here! The new album, Moving Pictures, drops TODAY on Apple Music, iTunes, Spotify and all the major streaming services. You can also get an old-school CD here through my website as well as a hi-res download and both of those are absolutely the best possible way to support me and this record. However you listen I hope you enjoy and appreciate the album and share it whenever possible! It's a pretty fun and wild ride that ventures from singer-songwriter fare into 1980s pop, straight-up jazz and what sounds suspiciously like a four-on-the-floor dance track towards the end. I kind of took off all the filters and limitation and just let things happen and the end result is probably the most colorful record I've made to date. Since it was inspired by painters and paintings I kind of let that dictate the process and in the end it seemed like many of the songs had a distinct identity and palette - much like walking through an art museum where you've got all these different styles housed in one building. 

Super proud of this album and grateful for all the musical guests who made it happen as well as Milo for the amazing album artwork and Joe Lambert for the stellar mastering job. Now go forth and listen! 

Just a quick note to let you know ‘Flag’ landed on Apple Music, iTunes, Spotify et al today - stream it, add it, share it, download it, hear it! Thanks for your support :-) 

Releasing this song, without any real fanfare or promotion,  as a single today. The song came to me while I was working on this album, Moving Pictures, and was connected to the paining ‘Flag’ by Jasper Johns. Kind of taking the national anthem and turning it into a question. Anyway it just felt too timely to hold off on - hope you find some meaning, hope, comfort, inspiration or something else good when you listen <3

Woohoo! The kickstarter campaign was successfully funded a couple of weeks ago and I've been working my tail off recording and wrangling musicians. This week was drums, trumpet, upright bass and baritone guitar on a few songs and next week is maybe dobro and some other backing vocals. Can't begin to tell you how excited I am about this collection of songs and how honored I feel to be able to bring them into the world. Might be releasing a single in the next couple of weeks - early, but the song feels too relevant to keep to myself - it's inspired by the Jasper Johns painting ‘Flag’ if that gives you some idea. I'll keep you posted and thanks for your support in making this possible :-) Doing a few dates in Germany next month and then will be filling in some more stuff in the US in June and throughout the summer. Hope to see your face in person soon!
