about

I would like to tell you about how I made this album:

This album was recorded from Feb 24th, 2021 to March 22, 2021.

I wrote the songs as I was performing them. When I got stuck I would start over or punch in where I gave up. All overdubs were done in as few takes as possible.

I call it an "improv album."

I hope it can be of use to you.
