about

'Murmurations' is a meditation on how the natural world continues unphased, perhaps even liberated by this anthro-pause the pandemic has created.

It is a piece of music that formed organically; the bare bones of it stacked in a day and a night from a stream of consciousness. Starting with the hand pan ostinato, my intention from here was to create a sonic journey that had an ebb and flow feel to it, like the changing tides or moving from season to season.

There was careful deliberation in which combination of collaborators to ask to bring their sound to the table, the result though is a harmonious unique blend that I couldn't be happier with.

Creating music is a healer in these troubled times, sharing it brings us together.

Hope you all enjoy!
