Heck, I'm no Henry Mancini or Michel Legrand. I just play the guitar and write songs. ↗

I don't feel I have to write deep and meaningful songs; they can be light and meaningless. It has to do with the place I am in my life, a really good place. ↗

I think I'm in a really nice position, where I'm sure I could do another show if I wanted to do one, but right now the main thing in my mind is writing songs. ↗
