Hey friends!

Well… new music is in the works, and I honestly can’t wait to share it with you all. Over the past while, I’ve had the incredible privilege of working alongside some artists I’ve admired for a long time — Pavlo, Amy Sky, and Dan Hill. Getting to make music with each of them has been one of the highlights of my year, and I wanted to share a bit about who they are, in case you don’t know their work already.

Pavlo — the Juno-nominated guitarist with that unmistakable Greek-Spanish-Latin instrumental sound you’ve probably heard on the radio. Watching him work is a masterclass in melody.

Amy Sky — songwriter and producer behind hits for Diana Ross, Anne Murray, and Cyndi Lauper, with incredible instincts in the room, both as a writer and a producer.

Dan Hill — the man behind “Sometimes When We Touch,” a song he wrote at nineteen that became a No. 1 hit. Sitting across from that kind of songwriting history, and watching him approach every new piece with total honesty, has been humbling.

Working with artists at this level is a reminder of how much there still is to learn, no matter how long you’ve been doing this. Every session has brought something different — Pavlo’s melodic instinct, Amy’s producer’s ear, Dan’s gift for raw, honest storytelling — and it’s shaping the new music in ways I couldn’t have planned for.

I can’t share everything just yet, but I promise it’s coming soon, and I think you’re going to love it.
