Dream Signals: July 2, 2026

🌌 Some strange life is singing

On Saturday, July 18, I’ll be joining Brand New Heartache and Lauryn Peacock for an stellar night of indie‑folk music at The 5 Spot in East Nashville.

I’m opening the night at 6pm sharp with a full‑band set and I'm so excited to light up the summer night with music.

If you’re in Nashville, I’d love to see you there! And if you have friends who love indie folk or art‑rock, please feel free to share.

Tickets are available now!

🌌 Spin my dark dreams into thread

I'm continuing to make progress on my Borderlands EP and hope to share more over the coming months. In the meantime, I might have a little surprise for you this summer. More to come soon!

🌌 But I've always been good at making noise

Just a reminder, Dark Matter is available everywhere. If you haven’t listened yet, or if you want to send it to someone who might need it, I’d be so grateful.

🌌 When it feels so hard, keep on trying

I just got back from NYC and I had such an amazing time reconnecting with friends both new and decades in the making. I had so much fun that I barely remembered to take any photos. I was just living in the moment for once, and that felt so good.

As Michael Scott would say, "my heart soars with the eagle's nest." I'll be back to see my East Coast kids soon.

Here is a clip from my song Art of Failed Things performed at Freddy's. Thanks to Roni for capturing this!

I search the sky at night

For a sign I'm doing this right

God knows I've tried, god knows I've tried

My power's to never be satisfied

My dream is to see changes amplified

I'll never be a book open wide

But I've made an Art of the failed things I've tried

Stay safe everyone. See you in the bright hue & shadow.

🌌 Dream Signals: January 16, 2026 Shadow War: Singularity Out now! Listen Here! My new single, Shadow War: Singularity, arrives today and I’m so excited to finally share it with you. This version of the song was a collaboration with Aaron Berg (Mountainwalker) and it feels more like a dance, which is appropriate to the song. I drew a lot from Frankenstein and the golems of Jewish mythology. I think I've often felt a bit like a creature, an odd mix of parts that don't quite fit, a clumsy mess...

Shadow War: Singularity album cover

🌌 Dream Signals: January 4, 2026 Shadow War: Singularity New music coming January 16th! Pre-Order Now This version of the song was created in collaboration with Aaron Berg (Mountainwalker), who helped me open up a completely new emotional dimension within the song. Shadow War has always been about the ways fear and division can turn us into enemies in our own minds, and how easy it is to see someone as “other,” or even monstrous, when we’re overwhelmed by our own shadows. This reimagined...
