about
"Strange Currents is a pretty ambitious musical journey. These 23 tracks are a series of postcards from the places I've been emotionally and geographically these last two years. The songs on this record began amidst personal crisis, and the melodies capture the joy, the heartbreak, and longing of life. The sounds capture my love for melody and experimentation, my fixation with pop hooks and electronic tinkering. The album looks good too, featuring art from renown Spanish artist Conrad Roset (www.conradroset.com). I was also able to work with one of my favorite musicians Ronnie Martin (Joy Electric, the Faint, Deer & the Headlights) to finish up the record.These songs are melodies for us to sing together, dreaming for a better world."
