ORIGINAL MUSIC

I’ve been writing songs since I was a kid. I recorded my first “real album” of original music around the year 2000. And I’ve been writing and recording ever since. These days it’s interesting for me to look back at all of those songs that have accumulated over the years and see how they create a kind of artistic biography—a creative record of the trajectory of my intellectual, emotional, social, and spiritual life across time.

I love having the opportunity to share those songs with whomever might want to listen. And that can happen in two ways:

You can find lots of my recorded music in the usual online spots (though I have kind of been in the middle of revamping/simplifying my online presence, so you may not find everything in all of the places). Or if you’re truly old school, you can purchase an actual physical CD from me at one of my shows. I’ve not had enough demand for vinyl at this point to justify the cost of pressing any. But I might some day… (I hope.)
Speaking of shows, that’s the other way I get to share my music with you. It’s always a privilege to sing and tell my own stories in front of a live audience, whether that’s on a big stage or in somebody’s living room for a house show. If you’re interested in booking a show — from solo acoustic house shows to big full production, full band stage shows, or anything in between — you can send me a message on the contact page of this website.

music & ministry

In 2019, I came back to Christian faith after a couple of decades of questioning and wandering (you can read part of that story on the “writing” page of this website). That return to faith has involved revisiting a call to ministry that I received when I was in my late teens (another story that you can read on the “writing” page). Over the last several years, my focus has increasingly turned toward the promotion of Christian spiritual formation and discipleship through events, music, speaking, teaching, and media. In the summer of 2025, I started a nonprofit organization with my friend Tim Schoepf called RE•VISIONARY devoted to just that. It’s always a privilege and a joy to be able to share my story through word and song. I’ve done a handful of concerts at churches and church-related events over the past couple of years and would absolutely love to be doing more. Again, just let me know through the contact form on this website if you’d be interested in booking something like that!
