super cool flyer!!

Turned it around tonight — sat in on gongs/small percussion w some friends at a venue I love/have played at multiple times and they had never been to. And we had such a good time. I love the last minute invite bc I don’t have time to get nervous or overthink anything. We rehearsed once earlier today and performed 5 hours later. What a week.

Also love the flyer Tyler and have fun on your tour!!!

On Sunday, I sang in a benefit concert for a local charity that provides counseling and support services for people impacted by gun violence, including those who have been injured, the families of those who have been killed, and those who have served jail time and are attempting to repatriate into society. I did two sets of songs; the first was three art songs by Robert Schumann (Mein schöner Stern, Widmung, Du bist wie eine Blume) and the second three were spirituals (Swing Low, Sweet Chariot; Deep River; Ride On, King Jesus). I thought it came out pretty well:

note to self: if you don't really know how to use logic that well, trying to quantize a sample from metal machine music may end up eating your brain and set off a series of cascading errors that make the entire song unusable

Dan, I apologize for not getting to this earlier - work was blocking it, and then I had issues with the Dropbox link, but I got it up now finally!

as always, I love your tone and intonation, dynamics, and diction! would love to show some of my mush-mouthed, nasal musical theater peers this video as a 'how to'.

Oh wow, that is a massive compliment! Thank you!
