Songs & Stories Teaser



I'm getting excited to present the newly reworked "Songs & Stories For Our Days".  It feels like the best way to start off this infamous turning point and mystically revered year of 2012.  I'm of course biased in thinking that everyone could benefit from experiencing the piece - it's a great way to be connected to the necessary energies for transcending this chaotic world we find ourselves in. The songs and stories were meant to be shared. They are filled with universal themes relevant to our modern life and all the glory and dilemma that comes along with it.

I presented a rough draft of the piece this summer to family and friends in Iowa. Now it is set for this revamped unveiling in Los Angeles. I'm actively seeking to present these Songs & Stories more and more, so if anyone can help me get connected with funding and venues around the globe to make that happen, please give me a buzz!

While the teaser above is visually quite stimulating, I'm excited to present a very "naked" show - singing a cappella songs without the usual theatrical trimmings, which is forcing me to be as present, grounded, authentic, and fully committed in the delivery as possible. I am by no means the greatest singer, but what matters is, as I say in one of my songs, I'm going "to give it my all with spirit and heart!"

West Hollywood Book Fair

This Sunday, Oct. 2, between 5pm-6pm I’ll be presenting/singing a selection from the collection of lyrics I wrote, both from my book “Songs & Stories Of My Days” and the upcoming “Life In An Over-POP-ulated World”, at the Homo-Centric Booth (#B35).

I am excited to have this opportunity to share the pieces in person, for I find live events have such a wonderful quality about them. Of course, the lyrics are wonderful to read in print as well, but really dance off the page and take to the air when sung to their distinct rhythms.

There's a great line up of writers from the LGBTQI Communities, so stop by all day to be filled with the glory of the spoken word!




You can preview “Songs & Stories Of My Days” in its entirety and/or make your order here:
