I have show in the upcoming shows section! A miracle. And I have also updated the past show log. I am very excited about quite a few things. Firstly, after a long four years, I have finally graduated with a Master's degree! This year has been very good to my musical life, which especially of late has been in full swing. I just returned from a tour with Jaggery, and now I am gearing up for what will be an evening full of splendor, twists, and enchantment known as Tale. I will be playing two songs of my own (one never before performed) with cellist Valerie Thompson (the joys of collaboration!!). There will be much music, there will be animation, there will be dance, poetry, and even trapeze!

I know that after this summer looms the necessity of full-time work, and I am afraid, sliver-time music. But once I have adjusted I will try to work out a balance in order to keep my creative heart content.

We shall see what unfurls...

In the meanwhile I am making hay while the sun shines like nobody's business.

I have updated the show log, egregiously after the fact, but better late than never. A new year has snuck up on me again, and I find myself frustrated with how I have spent my time--that is, that I have not devoted enough of it to music. I'm not sure this year will be much better either... I'm currently in my final year (fingers crossed) of graduate school, and should be done in December. I'm hoping that post-grad school life will allow me to have some more free mind space which I can fill with songwriting, singing, and performing. If not, I'm going to have to make some lifestyle adjustments!

As Wordsworth wrote to his friend once in a stunning sonnet:
"Creative Art . . . demands the service of a mind and heart."

But for now, I need to focus on school and getting through 'til graduation. Ah, patience is a virtue.
