This is what I've been up to since I turned off the glass furnaces. This is a new song of mine, "Month of Sundays" that I recorder live in my studio next to my tiny music desk because I submitted this song to the NPR Tiny Desk Concert competition. The mentions 6 US states, in a strange and long standing trend of finding cities, states and Canadian provinces in my songs!
