Sabin of the Green Mountains
My next album project is rooted in my experience growing up in Vermont. There’s so much to talk about, that it’s too early to share very many details beyond this right now. I like being open about process, ideas, and progress, so I’d like to share a little bit of what I’ve been doing musically over the past few weeks while also gadding about in other ways (mental and not!).
I’ve been ruminating all day, and I think I’m just going to relegate today to a general checking in. How are all of you? It’s Tuesday, April 1st at about 7 p.m. It’s been over two years since I could handle even a small set of responsibilities. It feels good to be able to stand — albeit a little wobbily — after the stumbling.
Hey everyone. Thanks for checking in! It’s been a wild couple of weeks here. My mental state is up and down, but I expect it now and it’s easier to manage, though still as exhausting. I’ve written a couple of new pieces, mostly just some improvs and idea sketches, but I do have a piano […]
Creative momentum has been slow lately, but I’m settling into a new rhythm—building out my studio space, exploring a granite-surf guitar sound, and prepping some ‘Where’ve You Been?’ tracks for live solo performance. The local music scene is thriving, and I’m excited to step into it. My album has organically reached over 4,200 streams, and I recently had a great interview on the Jaden Cornelious show (airing in March). Also, big news—’Where’ve You Been?’ is coming to CD (and maybe vinyl)! If you want to support, check out Bandcamp, grab some merch, or just spread the love for indie music. ??
Now that my album is out and I’ve had some time to find objectivity on the past year, I’ve slowed down, recharged, and just started to play. It’s been a much-needed pause to reflect on my journey so far while — almost inadvertently but with real joy — letting ideas for what’s next begin to […]
It was just about a year ago when I wrote a reflection on 2023, so I figured I’d do it again this year. It’s hard to put into words how it feels to look back on this past year. At this time last year, I was sitting in my living room, recording It Can Be […]
For most of my life, I stressed about proving myself and achieving perfection, but everything changed four years ago when I discovered the beauty of dilettantism—engaging in things out of love and curiosity rather than obligation. Experiences like Ayahuasca and mindfulness taught me to embrace imperfection and just be present. Now, I create without the pressure to excel and believe exploration is more valuable than mastery. It’s about joy and freedom, not achievement.
Releasing Where’ve You Been? feels like setting loose a collection of bottled messages into the ocean—each one containing fragments of my life, some drifting to distant shores, others caught in unexpected currents. The messages are written, and now I’m watching the tides carry them away to unknown destinations, hoping that there’s a connection when they […]
Hi everyone! As of today, April 27 2024, I will be releasing my music under my first name only. The change should be already made on your favorite streaming platforms, with maybe a few glitches as the old becomes subsumed by the new… Please share, follow, and stay tuned. There’s so much more to come! […]
… but I have a new DEMO today! I wrote this instead of doing the chord progression for Danielle that I was supposed to be helping her with (which means I need to do it later). She’s working on a new piece (that I’ll let her tell you about when it’s ready), and she’s sort […]
