"I'm Sorry, I Love You" - New Single Coming May 8, 2020
Hey Friends,
I hope you are all well in isolation, staying healthy and positive.
I've got a new song coming out called "I'm Sorry, I Love You". It was produced by Nathan Yaccino and features Abby Gundersen as a backing vocalist.

So I recorded "Killing Me Softly" by the Fugees. Thank you to the many that have already watched and commented on the video. It's awesome of you to do so.

Recently I wrote an online letter (also known as an email) to a very prolific music blog called the 405.

Anyway, you can write their team and let them know what kind of music you are looking for, and they will give you some suggestions. I wrote that I wanted to find new singer-songwriters in the same vein as: They sent me… Read more
