In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I saw Willie Nelson in concert in Austin with my parents in the early 80's. It's my first musical memory. I was in the 1st or 2nd grade at the time.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Jason Isbell, Southeastern Radiohead, OK Computer The Civil Wars, Barton Hollow Southeastern is a masterpiece, front to back. Amazing songwriting. Barton Hollow reminded me the songs don't have to be formulaic to be powerful. A truly inspiring record. OK Computer is one of the most transformative albums of all time. A must!
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Cry” I love this song, I can feel the emotion in every word and the power of the vocal harmonies today just as strong as when I first recorded it eight years ago. Who can't relate to the gift of desperation that brings us to the point of forgiveness.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Writing songs and performing with my dear friend and collaborator Miriam Smith. She is the best harmony singer on Earth, and a wonderful violinist. so talented! I had great fun working out new arrangements and performing in listening rooms with her.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I'd love to perform in an old time theater for a listening audience so quiet and moved by the music that you could hear a pin drop. I'd love to record more of my original music and release it into the world as a record of my life and times.
