Welp... it's out! I have been intensely working on an album for most of the last 5+ years. The creation of "Unmasking Music" was grounding, clarifying, challenging, and ultimately rewarding. The process of creating this record has manifested an incredible community of artists and musicians, each of whom I am unspeakably grateful for. It has taken me around the country, across many stages, and inside of many studios, and now it is officially released. This album features over 30 musicians amounting to a small symphony, and explores the beautiful, terrifying, disorienting, messy, and overwhelming experience of moving towards one's authentic self. It’s an album born from a place of radical honesty, one that navigates the shedding of old identities, the painful and ecstatic process of rebirth, and the staggering vulnerability and integrity that transformation demands.

I wish to make special thanks to Jorge Costa for the generous and brilliant mixing, Mark Fuller for the pristine mastering, Gary Bernstein and Fran Bernstein for life-long mentorship and support, my wife Brooklyn Littell for the most loving and unyielding encouragement of my madness, and ALLLLL of the musicians who gave their time and energy to this record.

This record isn't a passive listen. It demands your attention, and I would be so grateful if you'd be willing to set aside an hour to give it yours.
