Tiny Desk 2020

Well we’re almost to May. (long sigh) I hope you’re hanging in there. Reading or listening to anything good lately? Bought myself Kid A on vinyl - still a stunner.

I wanted to share some cool news - I’ve made a video for my song “Hold On” and submitted it to NPR’s Tiny Desk Contest. Here for your consideration.

I think I’ve made a pretty song. Over time I’ve found some interesting counter melody and added an intro and outro sometimes. It’s been a joy to place my palm on this one’s chest and feel it expand and contract again. The ribs and the nuance. The power and the engine. Song making is a beautiful thing. You can make a beautiful piece in a day and it’s time that tells you what earrings go best with the necklace. Does the tie really match the belt, what about this one? It breathes, you breathe. So as “Hold On” has gotten longer in the tooth it has revealed charming personality and depth. I hope that I have done right by it and you can appreciate the outfit as well.
