Music sometimes comes easily to me, and sometimes it’s very difficult to extract—more and more, I’ve come to understand that there is indeed a “way” (perhaps many different ways), but rarely a paved path ending at the destination.
This one was one of the easy times. Writing this song reminded me of the way it all started: short trips where the route forward is obvious, my only job to be sure-footed in and deliver whatever it is I have to deliver. It is a great relief to experience these kinds of day-trips in between more arduous ones fettered with baggage and crossroads and distractions.
The song itself is about dying. I hope it gives you the same comfort and clarity as it gave me.
“The beach at the base of the hill,” my first release in over a year, is out now 🦉
