about

The concept for this record struck me after my brother passed in 2013. I wanted to create a sound that mimicked the feeling of a sensitive memory and the long process of moving through grief. To accomplish this I utilize candidly recorded conversations from people that have influenced me over the course of the last two years.

Please listen to this record with headphones while participating in a meditative, creative activity.
