We all have a story, a journey all our own. This album is my attempt to document my own journey through music. My hope is that, as you listen, you will find that our paths are in many ways the same. This album is the culmination of over 10 years of songwriting inspired by changes in the way I see the world.  My hope is that this album challenges listeners to examine their preconceptions about the world and think for themselves.  Musically, I explored rock, jazz, Latin, and the introspective singer/piano-player style of the artists that have inspired me: Elton John, Sting and Billy Joel.   Each song expresses a unique part of the process I went through as I found out what made sense to me when I looked at life in a fresh way.   I brought in some amazing Nashville musicians such as Roy Vogt, Andrew Henderson, Chris Gregg, and Sam Kallaos to help make this an album I could truly be proud of.  And I am.  I hope you enjoy it. I grew up in a small town in Kentucky called Dawson Springs, and learned to play the piano by watching my dad play. I then attended Belmont University in Nashville, TN, and graduated with a degree in vocal composition in 1996. I continue to record and perform my own music while balancing that with a career as a teacher. My influences include Elton John, Billy Joel, and Sting. Thank you for listening. I truly appreciate it.
