    Radio Waves and Thunderstorms

    Summer is already a sweat-filled fresh start. All of us have seen the ocean long enough to feel new again. We’re knee deep in some crazy paperwork with a bunch of new and random things happening, only some we can mention. “Pride” played on the radio last night for the first time in the US…

    Where Are You Now?

    Songs have a life of their own; sometimes they wallow in obscurity and some days, they’re showered with love.

    Behind the Cover

    We get notes from time to time asking about the artwork, so here’s a little bit about the cover of “I Am The Hint”. The album is a story that flows from song to song with over-arching themes of love, loss and passion, and we collectively loved the idea of flowers to represent that visually.…
