Purple Heart

Purple Heart" was inspired by a photo I found in an old trunk in the attic when I was a kid. My dad, a quiet Vietnam veteran, never spoke of the war. But as the son of a soldier, I saw what silence tried to hide—the trauma, the distance, the long journey of trying to find his way back home, not just physically, but emotionally. We recorded it live, capturing the raw energy of friends coming together to make something real, honest, and full of feeling.

Is there a god

“Is There a God” was written through the eyes of a friend wrestling with faith in the midst of a world unraveling. It’s a reflection on the grief, confusion, and doubt that arise when we witness war—like the devastation in Gaza and Ukraine—and the constant noise of misinformation, media manipulation, and broken systems. This song is my attempt to honor his perspective: not to provide easy answers, but to hold space for the question itself.

Mattoo

I believe, with MATTOO, we can witness the end of human trafficking in our lifetime—but it will take all of us, working together, to make it happen. To support that mission, 70% of every purchase of the track “MATTOO” or the full EP will go directly to MATTOO.org, fueling their fight to end trafficking around the world. The remaining 30% helps support the artist behind the music—but the heart of this project is about making a difference where it’s needed most.

Drifter

“Drifter” was born on the sun-soaked streets of Mijas, Spain—where cobblestone paths, ocean air, and the Mediterranean horizon stirred something deep. It’s a song about finding a place to plant your feet—somewhere untamed, somewhere free.

Cloud

“Cloud” is a song that captures my journey through faith, doubt, and the quiet pursuit of guidance. I wrote it 15 years ago, and somehow, its meaning still rings just as true today.
