BACKSTAGE

Thoughts & Reflections

A place to think out loud, in writing...

Your 'access pass' to the world behind my music

Backstage is where I share the thoughts, influences, and moments that shape my music — from creative process and production, to the artists, ideas, and experiences that continue to spark curiosity. It’s a place for reflection, storytelling, and the quieter observations that curiosity leads to.

Every chapter of my musical life are just pieces of the same thread — the one that runs from childhood wonder to every note I play today. Every song I play carries a little of where I’ve been, and a little of what I’m still discovering.
