about

I’ve been working on an album for two years. It’s called The Guardian and it’s meant to be an exercise in empathy. The verses are written in a way so that the listener is in the shoes of another person. You’ll hear their thoughts, their fears, emotions and struggle as they navigate through trauma, loss, abuse and difficult circumstances. The hope is that as the listener, one would learn to suspend judgment and begin to listen more and empathize more with the people around you.
