journey of my original heart shadow light music

Music balances the intellectual with heart. Enjoy.

Songs

step one

Let’s start with a new song, We Need We, recorded in 2023 with a new producer, Omito. It celebrates the beauty of diversity, something that provides resilience that is much needed to transform our culture from the most destructive to the most restorative force on the planet. 

Remember Me is from my second album, Sometimes Good Things Happen. Celebrating the idea of re-membering all of who we are, bringing all the pieces together — integrating all of who we are — in the context of someone reflecting on the end of their life.
