about

Recorded during the COVID-19 lockdown, these songs percolated through the thoughts, textures, reflections that materialized as my "normal" life dissolved away. A gratitude for privilege, a quiet.

This album was recorded with a Korg Minilogue, a Ditto looper pedal and a DJM 800 mixer. Songs were recorded straight off the mixer into a handheld digital recorder.

All proceeds from Bandcamp sales go the Alameda County Community Food Bank (www.accfb.org).
