I Started Playing Harp About

I Didn't Sing For Years And Years, But I Started Playing Harp When I Was Maybe 9 Or 10. I Had Actually Wanted To Play For Years Leading Up To That, But No Teacher In Our Little Town Would Take Me On As A Student, Because I Was Too Young.

Around Eighth Grade I Decided I Wanted To Be A Composer And That's What I Went To College For. Just A Few Years Back, I Switched Out Of Composition And Into Creative Writing So I Could Work With Words.

There's Something Fundamental To The Harp That Has Retained Its Appeal My Whole Life. It's An Instrument I Am Just In Love With.

And All That We Built, And All That We Breathed And All That We Spilled Or Pulled Up Like Weeds Is Piled Up In Back And It Burns Irrevocably And We Spoke Up In Turns 'til The Silence Crept Over Me.

I Wanted To Write Songs Which I Think Is A Different Thing. I Wanted To Write Music That Is Informed By Folk Music. The Chord Progressions Are Obvious References.
