Website & Single "Better Than Truth" Official Release!
Dear friends & family,
I am so excited to announce today the official release of this website and my first single, Better Than Truth, now out and available on major streaming services like Spotify & Apple Music! It has been an incredible process, and I am so glad to share the final product with you.
Over the past 4 months, I have learned so much. I learned how to make quality recordings for vocals & guitar; how to use audio interfaces, recording equipment, and how to make field recordings with a Zoom recorder. I learned to play the glass harp (aka, wine glasses) and even dipped my toe into understanding sampling. I collaborated for the first time over the internet, sending my song & ideas across the pond to my friend Michiel de Koning in Totnes, England, to produce the rest of my song and add his own special touch. I learned a great deal about the challenges and benefits of online collaboration, and feel like I grew a ton as an artist in the process.
I also apparently became a model during this time! I had my first official photoshoot with the lovely Judite Bettencourt, who made me feel like an absolute goddess—I have never felt so confident and beautiful before. But my new skills don’t end there—I’ve also delved into the intricate world of website design and now have a new profound respect for graphic designers. My website is the hard-work and culmination of a months-long endeavor to reimagine what it is exactly I want to put out into the world as an artist, and I am so proud of the result. I hope you will check out the now finished result and peruse the stories, photos and information it has to offer! This post is part of a blog series I will maintain as I keep you all up-to-date on what I am up to, where I am going, and where I have been.
Thank you all so much for being on this journey with me. I hope it inspires, enchants and awakens you to the magic of life that always surrounds us.
Much love,
