✨ New Music Out Today! ✨
I’m beyond excited to share my brand-new original single, “The Distance.”
This is the fourth release in a series of originals I’ve been putting out over the summer, and it’s one that hits close to home.
What began as a deeply personal experience turned into something so many people could relate to, estrangement.
Whether it’s with a family member, a friend, a colleague, or a past love, it’s something most of us face at some point. As we started to share this song, I realized how universal that feeling is. It struck a nerve, often bringing a quiet nod, a knowing smile, or even a tear.
I wrote “The Distance” with a hopeful, loving heart. It’s a reflective piece, not about blame, but about the resilience of connection and the possibility of healing. My hope is that it resonates with you, and maybe even with someone you choose to share it with.

Incredible weekend here in Chautauqua, Bonnie Raitt and Jimmy Vaughan (yes, Stevie Ray’s older brother) absolutely crushed it on Friday! Both such an inspiration. Keep going, folks. Just keep going. ✨
Bonnie moved the whole place to tears with her cover of John Prine’s “Angel from Montgomery,” one of my all-time favorite songs to cover myself. Pure magic. 🎶
Picture from Big Inlet Brewery this weekend. 🎶 My last appearance for the season at this iconic music-centric brew-pub in western New York State.
A favorite of locals and the vibrant music community, it was a privilege to be here and meet so many wonderful people. See ya next summer! @biginletbrewing ✨
