Confluence
Two Sierra trips, harder memories, and a quiet remembrance of Brian flow together in a reflective country and Americana song about reaching calmer water, recognizing what shaped the journey, and feeling grateful for where life has landed.

Is It the Truth?
I wrote this as a reflection on service, gratitude, and the kind of real human connection that only happens when people keep showing up. It began with my own Rotary history, but I deliberately widened it into a song about community itself.
Single Zed Wishless
395 Sunrise
A rock and roll song built from a real Highway 395 sunrise, where an early-morning business drive turned into an unforgettable encounter with rushing water, desert color, and mountain light. The song only clicked after moving from RoyRoy Genkins to Zed Wishless.

Ripples from Distant Shores
A reflective country folk song about the quiet reach of kindness, words worth saying, and the ways something small can continue outward long after it leaves our hands.

Grab Those Moments
A reflective country and Americana song about how our perception of time changes as we age, and the importance of recognizing the fleeting opportunities for connection, adventure, awe, and meaningful experience while they are still available.
