Last week I flew down to Asheville, NC to record a handful of new songs for an upcoming EP. The recording project was part of my winnings from the 2015 NewSong Contest. Sara (Pajunen) wrote some stunning string arrangements for a few of the pieces. She and I joined producer Gar Ragland and the NewSong team at Echo Mountain Studios for three long and glorious days of recording.
Sound an Echo had a successful first tour this June! Check out the video of our adventures as we circled Lake Superior!
At the end of May I participated in the Kerrville New Folk Songwriting Competition and was chosen as one of six winners! In November we will take a mini tour through Texas together. Made some good friends and heard a lot of good tunes on that trip.
That's all for now! Keep an eye on my website and social media accounts for updates!
