Medicine Man - Live at the Saxon Pub

Music is good medicine. Hunter S. Thompson called the music industry “a cruel and shallow money trench,” but from where I’m sitting, it looks different. The rewards of making and listening to music are sincere connections—friendship, fellowship, and shared moments you remember—that reawaken your wonder and imagination.

Maybe it's because you can’t really write good songs about superficial things you don’t care deeply about, so making music often means opening up, comparing notes on life’s meaningful questions, and discovering kindred spirits.

That's exactly what I've found in this incredible community of musicians and music lovers. I’m grateful for a group of kind, generous friends who inspire me. It’s the aficionados, the listeners, and fellow seekers I’ve met along the way, whose support, stories, and shared passion enrich the journey.
Music brings us together and makes the world a bit more beautiful through sincere connection. On the patio of the Saxon Pub last night, Colin Brooks said something like: with music, like love, somehow there's always enough to go around.
